Marvel Super Hero stamps announced by Royal Mail UK

Some of Marvel's best known superheroes will feature on stamps throughout the UK, announced today the Royal Mail.

(And, yes, that includes both Captain Britain and Union Jack.)

The stamps will go on sale from March 14th, but a pre-order site has already been set up, allowing fans to order stamps featuring Dr. Strange, Spider-Man, Captain Marvel, Black Panther, etc.

While the stamps clearly celebrate the COMICS side of Marvel, the game evokes popular movie characters, from the choice of heroes to a collectible package containing the Avengers: war in the infinite and Avengers: End of the game the wicked Thanos.

Here is the official description of the package, via the Royal Mail website:
