This is Marvel's new T-Shirt celebrating their 70th anniversary. What I find odd is none of the characters shown in the image are over 47 years old.Spider-Man was created in 1962.
The Hulk was created in 1962.
Iron man was created in 1963.
Thor was created in 1962.
Silver Surfer was created in 1966.
Ok, so in the small "70 years" icon, there's a small Captain America head. Captain America was created in 1949. But not by Marvel, but by their predecessor TIMELY COMICS (1939) who later became ATLAS COMICS in the 1950s, who then later evolved into MARVEL COMICS in 1961 with Fantastic Four #1.
I suppose technically its all Marvel, but that doesn't change the fact that the characters used in the above t-shirt were created 23 years after 1939.
Anyway, it caught my eye.

I would argue that Thor has been around a lot longer than 70 years.
wiseass! :)
I'm referring to the MARVEL INCARNATION Thor.
youre risking in sounding like that star trek fan who complains about the san fransisco looks in the new movie.
by the way,
i think that maybe patsy walker (hellcat) is the only one that getting close to 70. she's like 65.
HAHAHA!! awesome.
if you notice, I wasn't smashing it... merely bringing up the point that they're alluding their popular characters have been around since 1939.
that's all.
THOSE BUILDINGS ARE TOO TALL!!!!
