History:
(Avengers I#200 (fb) - BTS) - Marjorie Hansley lived a quiet life with
her family in a Nassau County suburb. She had almost paid off her
mortgage.
(Avengers I#200 (fb) - BTS) - Dreaming of adventure, Marjorie entered a
publishing company's sweepstakes when she learned the grand prize was an
all-expense paid trip around the world.
(Avengers I#200 - BTS) - As a result of Marcus Immortus' unorthodox
arrival on Earth-616 from limbo, numerous temporal anomalies occurred.
(Avengers I#200) - Marjorie Hansley made her way to the family mailbox,
excited to see she had received a letter from the publishing company.
Already imagining herself traveling the world, she didn't realize she
had wandered into one of the temporal anomalies. When she turned to go
back in, Marjorie found herself in the Mesozoic era. Her family home was
replaced by a pool with giant dinosaurs that scared her so much that she
passed out. While she was unconscious, a crocodile slithered towards
her.
Comments: Created by David
Michelinie, George Pérez, Dan Green.
Continuing the grand tradition of spotlighting the extremely obscure to
celebrate milestone profiles.
Stu
Pfaffenberger was the first when I hit 100, followed by #150's Thaddeus
Hatcher. Number 200 was dedicated to Hadleyville's own Sam
Burgh. Number 300 and 400 were covered by Spider-Man supporting
characters Marc
Noletti and Jeff
Wainwright who truly mastered the art of being obscure... And who
could forget that fantabulous 500th pick Gladys
Shuriff? All of you? Well good, that's the point.
Four panels. That's all David Michelinie needed to paint a
picture of the life and times of Marjorie Hansley. Getting time-napped
on your way to the mailbox and waking up in the Mesozoic era as food for
giant reptiles is pretty awful... And yet, it's still not the worst
thing that happened to a woman in Avengers I#200.
