FCBD 2013
MYSTIC GARB - DR. STRANGE APPAREL
- SUPPLEMENTAL ENTRY # 7

-----

FREE COMIC BOOK DAY
MAY 4th, 2013!



OK... that was yesterday.
But, to commemorate the event, I'd like to share a certain bit of swag that I got as a result.
(Yes, I should have posted this yesterday, but I was tying to wrap up a follow-up installment to my previous post [HERE], But fret not, that'll come soon.)


Instead, it is probably more "fitting" to showcase a piece of apparel (hence the "fitting" pun) that was the official t-shirt for Marvel's FCBD comic preview of INFINITY!


I'm not likely to take mine out of the plastic wrapper, due to the fact(s) that:

A) Doctor Strange is but a tiny head in the illustration

B) It's a bit too "busy" for me to wear

C) I only got one, since I had to pre-order it sight-unseen - as they had only a blank shirt with some lame question mark/ T.B.D. note on it, and thus had no idea if Dr. Strange would even BE on the shirt or even a part of the FCBD comic (as it was all hush-hush, super-secret, kept-under-wraps a few months back when the pre-order was due).

But, so you can all see what it looks like, I've whipped up my own photoshop mockup.

All current mock-up pics online (even Marvel's official one) are incorrect, having the wrong logos, but this is accurate (you're welcome).

Of course, the artwork, by Jim Cheung is taken from the cover to the FCBD preview issue of INFINITY - the 2013 Summer Event which sees many of writer Jonathan Hickman's various threads from his Avengers / New Avengers stories collide headlong with the Guardians of the Galaxy, the Shi'ar Imperial Guard, Thanos and more!




And yes... I'll also mention that I also got the promo poster.



But I'll go into all that in a later post. This post is primarily about the shirt.

There have been other shirts and assorted apparel that I've obtained before this one, but I'm ignoring the Obsessive-Compulsive voice screaming in my head, and am skipping them to showcase this one in a timely manner.

But those others will come soon (so, someone tell the voice in my head to chillax).

And, don't forget to come back next time for the promised feature on Marvel Patches, Buttons and other "pieces of flair" (although, that will probably be after the "Mother's Day" blogpost - which is a long way to say, I got a TON of stuff coming down the line soon, so... check back often).
