    In his defense, June feels a lot like February in Philly.

    I picked this 2-parter up in a Marvel UK Captain Britain Summer Special back in the day. Fond menories. I still have it packed away in a box in the attic.

    In NY February has made me shiver.
    There came a time when the Old Gods died! The Brave died with the Cunning! The Noble perished locked in battle with unleashed Evil! It was the last day for them! An ancient era was passing in fiery holocaust!

    Hey Iron Maiden, I almost picked that one. I had this one and the Avengers cover I posted to choose from and ultimately went with the Avengers cover. Great choice!

    WestPhilly, the theme this week is for a comic that's cover-dated February 1938, 1948, 1958, etc., as foxley pointed out. But that iconic Action issue has a June cover date, so it's not suitable for this week's theme


    This week's theme, from the OP:

Try to list the cover date/year for reference if you think of it.

    Which is the problem. If it said February it would be fine.

    I know I almost messed up. You have to get the settings right for your search. Search "All comics" "cover dated" "February" then pick your year.
