Ken Kesey, the nutcase who use to give "acid tests" (with LSD) to people in the San francisco area during the 1960's, used a Marvel comics character on some of the pamphlets he gave to advertise the acid tests. Which Marvel character was it?
I don't know for sure, but I'm going to guess Dr Strange, based largely on a tale related by Stan Lee(I think) about some hippie fans of the Doc going to the Marvel offices back in the heyday of people using LSD to meet Stan and Jack, expecting a couple of fellow hippies. Apparently, they were slightly disappointed.

Nice guess, but not the right one. If I didn't know the answer, that would've been my guess as well.

No, sorry, that too is incorrect.

Nope, not the naked chrome colored guy either.
I figure it'll be more of a guess that gets it then anything else.
Forbush Man? He kind of looks like a cross between something R. Crumb would draw and that 'Keep On Truckin' guy from the 70s, so getting appropriated by the 60s drug culture wouldn't be that weird... would it?
Hulk love pretty colors ... My guess is the Incredible Hulk . The only reason he is my guess is because its fun to imagine him on an Acid Trip
I wouldn't want to be within 500 miles of the Hulk if he were on an Acid Trip. I wouldn't want to be within 1000 miles of him if he were on an Angel Dust trip. And no, it's not the Hulk.

Wrong era.

No, not him either. I believe he came about at the end of the 60's and is more of a 70's thing.

Aye, verily. Tis Thor most truly and assuredly. That being the answer most correct, I say unto thee that this thread is now thine, DiZo.
May thy evil half-brother feel shame for not answering yon question and in that shame learn humility.
