ROM the Space Knight by Jeff Slemons
One of the early integrations of electronic features into an action figure, the ROM action figure didn’t do well in the market, but the Marvel comic lasted 75 issues and four annuals. He’ll return to comics in 2016 via IDW Publishing.
Came across this great piece on facebook by Jeff Slemons and did it up as a Marvel comic cover and promo poster.
