He has become a bit of an Uncle Sam style icon for patriots.

Much the same Davy. You're maybe a bit out with your dates though. The UK comic The Mighty World of Marvel featuring The Fantastic Four, Spider-Man and The Hulk, debuted in 1972.davyK wrote:I never really got into the DC side of things as a kid. It was on the Marvel side for me; Fantastic Four and Spiderman being the bulk of the super-hero comics by bro and I read. Most Marvel comic reading was hit and miss and nothing seemed to be regular but we did get a "proper" UK Spiderman comic in the late 80s-early 80s my brother got every week when I moved to 2000AD.

Didn't think they were particularly compelling tbh. Came off rather like a desperate gimmick to me.
