Next week, Marvel Comics will release a facsimile edition of X-Factor #87, 1993's start to a bold new era of X-Factor following the X-Cutioner's Song crossover event, by Peter David and Joe Quesada. And while we appreciate the idea of facsimile editions in general, our favorite part is getting a good look at the old school comic book ads in their restored glory.

Like this one for Fleer Basketball cards. Remember, the 90s were the height of speculator mania, not just for comics, but for an endless array of collectible trading cards as well.

Oh, and yeah, there's comics too, starting with a little Ren and Stimpy homage…

A prophecy once said that in the comic book industry's darkest days, a hero would come to lead the people through a plague of overpriced floppies, incentive variant covers, #1 issue reboots, and super-mega-crossover events. Sadly, that prophecy was wrong. Oh, Jude Terror was right. For ten years. About everything. But nobody listened. And so, Jude Terror has moved on to a more important mission: turning Bleeding Cool into a pro wrestling dirt sheet!
