As irony would have it I scanned this out of my copy of ROM #26 which happens to be the very cover in this bullpen bulletin page promotional. I like that it was staged in the forefront there.

Finding this ad is how I found out about ROM's appearance in the Incredible HULK #296 back then. Needless to say I scrambled to find a copy as soon as possible. Fortunately I came across one while still on the stands at some dime store of Seven11 I don't really remember which. I just remembered I was pretty thrilled when I did it was a great find for my collection at the time.

If I missed any other house ads out there I should have included in this posting there I hope you'll let me know. And just so you know I purposely didn't include the classic full and half page ROM Spaceknight house ads since pretty much every body knows about those already. Same goes for the full page ad for the electronic doll which was actually a Parker Brothers advertisement. I wonder if Parker Brothers had to pay for that ad space like a regular advertiser or if they had some sort of special arrangement given the licensing agreement with Marvel at the time.
August 1st I'm going to unveil my latest piece of ROM related fan art that features an epic battle between Doctor Strange and Dire Wraith witches. Along with that I'll also be featuring some more fan art sent to me that I'm sure most if not all of you have never seen before!
