Today in Comics History, August 22: Happy birthday, Ben Urich!

Born on this day (although it's probably non-canon, as it came from the Marvel Age calendar), newspaperman and Elektra-pincushion Ben Urich, walking ashtray! But we shall celebrate today until a canon birthday pops up within the pages oif actual Marvel Universe comics! Smoke 'em if you've got 'em (cue that photo of me with a candy cigarette).


from Marvel Age #104 (Marvel, September 1991), text by Chris Eliopoulis and Barry Dutter, pencils and inks by Ron Zalme, colors by Renee Witterstaetter

Happy birthday, Ben! Elektra says she's sorry but she hopes you got the point.
