Jim Krueger is the writer behind Marvel’s greatest alterniverse epic, the Earth X Trilogy.

But, years before all that, he was a fan of Rom, a comic book title published by Marvel Comics based on a robotic toy made by Parker Brothers. He got a letter published in Rom #52 (cover date – March 1984), which you can read below.

Evan Dorkin, the creator of those dairy products gone bad, Milk & Cheese, is a comics writer and artist known for his quirky, indy work. He was the creative force behind Marvel Comics‘ Bill & Ted ongoing series from the early 1990s and was one of the writers on the TV show Space Ghost: Coast to Coast! Before all that, though, his imagination was captured by Rom, a comic book title published by Marvel Comics based on a robotic toy made by Parker Brothers. He got a letter published in Rom #41 (cover date – April 1983), which you can read below.
