Be aware that the site didn't work properly on IE for me, but did for Firefox. And the site itself may not be child-friendly.
I liked the bit on including Spiderman in issue 3, and Hasbro being more concerned with not wanting to promote a competitor than wanting to benefit from having an iconic character promoting Transformers.
But be aware that Bob is trying to talk about things from 25 years ago.
