Yes, that’s supposed to be a cake with 48 flaming candles. Also, best wishes to my blogging-and-birthday brother, pal Andrew, whose own cake is almost certainly illuminated by tiny mushroom clouds.

Happy birthday Mike!
Still alive, eh?
Good on you!
Happy Day!
Happy 48th! I’m just six short weeks away from my own 48th, which means I remember that Superboy cover from when I picked that issue up on the spinner rack. It also means I don’t remember anything about what lies beneath that cover because I’m old! H
Happy birthday, Mike! Thanks for all the hahas.
Happy Birthday and many happy returns of the day! And by that I mean many more happy years, not customers returning items or you having to return stuff to Diamond.
48? That’s SO last year. For me. Happy Birthday, Mr. Sterling. Welcome to your extremely late 30s.
Happy birthday, sir. Coming from someone who is not quite 46 yet, let me say you’re really old, maaaaaannnn! :)
Obnoxious children…
You can’t possibly be 48, because that would make me… 42? Wait… I’m 42?!! GOD DAMMIT!!

Happy Birthday!
Just do a Jack Benny and be 39 forever.
Happy Happy!!!
And today is my 47th! Damn, that’s a big number.
So you’re really 51 then?
Or perhaps you’re telling us that you’re actually 2017-1944 = 73 ??
To put these disturbing discussions to rest, you’d best post a picture of your birthday cake (after Martha has added the extra candle, or not).
BTW, Happy Birthday
Happy Birthday, Mike!
The only thing I remember about that comic is that they misspelled “electrifying” on the cover.
Sappy Mirthday, fellow Michael!
Happy birthday!
Happy belated, Mike!
I remember when I first started going to Ralph’s when I was 17 and you were there, already the comic veteran at 25. And here we are, all future-y and stuff. Time. Weird and wild stuff. Happy belated, Mike! Hope it was a great one! :)
Happy belated birthday, Mike. Also, did you ever notice they misspelled “ELECTRIFYING” in giant type on that cover?
