Last week I took a vacation to see the family and when I was cleaning out my great Aunt's attic - she's a collector, but perhaps hoarder is a better term - I found some really cool Marvel superhero lunch pails. These are the old lead lunchboxes which they don't make anymore for obvious health reasons.

The one on the left is from 1976 and the one on the right is from 1980.

    The Defenders, issue 45!

    This is the first comic book I remember buying when I was little. I carried it around everywhere.
    The cover was lost long ago but I remember it had Hulk and Power Man on it.
