Ah well. No babysitter is perfect. At least he doesn't rummage through your dresser drawers.

I have Marvel Team-Up #135 somewhere. It was probably not in good shape when I bought it, but in my love of Kitty Pryde, I didn't care much about that.
Do you think that panel of Franklin pointing a pistol right at the reader is meant to evoke the "Elf with a Gun" thing from the Steve Gerber Defenders run? It sure looks familiar...
Oddly enough I hired Doctor Doom for Saturday night. Hm.
Hey, I'd hire Doom. At least you'd know that the liquor would still be in the cabinet, and assorted unsavory boyfriends hadn't been over. Of course there was the possibility of having your house destroyed simply as collateral damage, but isn't that the risk with ANY babysitter?
The best babysitter ever is, of course. Bova who raised Pietro & Wanda.
No BS here but my word verification is "bully"!!
