Happy Fathers Day To GOOM From His Son GOOGAM

Goom, another would-be planet conqueror and full-time father, is the life of the party. Whether regaling a crowd with off color anecdotes, eating party guests, or doing keg stands in the kitchen, Goom is sure to brighten any get-together the minute he walks through (I mean, literally walks through) the door. For he is Goom... and he's doin' it like they do on Planet X!

Goom first appeared in Tales of Suspense #15, March 1961. In further issues we were introduced to his son GOOGAM who had his own problems fitting into Earth Society.

david_b said...: I always wonder whether they took fishin' trips together or just ate towns together.

You ever wonder how Googam did in school..? Was he picked on, selected last for playground games, or did he just punk around a bit..?; June 16, 2013 at 6:59 AM

Kal said...: He's always taking GOOGAM to the park to meet the single ladies.; June 16, 2013 at 10:03 PM
david_b said...: Hmm, a well-played strategy.

As long as father's well-endowed, I'm sure he can rustle up a philly.; June 17, 2013 at 7:41 AM
