Above: San Diego Comic Con ’74 Progress Report 2
Page 10: Marvel 100 Club
Marvel Comics Group
Those of you who read the Bullpen Bonus Page in the July Marvel comics will recall that the San Diego Comic Con is offering a special discount to those with completed Marvel stamp books (all 100 stamps). Here it is! All those with completed books are to present their books at the con’s registration desk and have them stamped. They will then receive a pass to a private MARVEL 100 CLUB party! If you’re in on the party, you’ll meet Roy Thomas and the Marvel gang, and have your photo taken with them to appear in FOOM magazine! There’ll be a drawing at the party; prizes will be original autographed Roy Thomas comic book scripts plus other goodies brought by Roy from Marvel headquarters in New York. It’ll be a party to remember, so complete those books! As a special bonus, those with completed books will receive a special #1.00 discount on their own membership (yes, it’ll be refunded if you’re pre-registered!!)
