Happy birthday to my blogging birthday brother Andrew, and a slightly belated birthday to Caleb who, I discovered in the midst of putting this post together, did a similar thing for his own birthday. I wasn’t copying him, honest! Also, thanks to the Grand Comics Database, which I totally abused for this thing.

You’re ten years younger than I am.
Happy Birthday Mike! It’s a regular birthday explosion today!
Happy birthday, Mike! I totally want to steal this for my own birthday now!
So today, 43. Tomorrow…….

Happy Birthday Mike Sterling!
Happy birthday, fellow March Piscean.
You may very well pass for forty-three,
In the dusk, with a light behind you.
Happy Birthday, Mike!
That’s one more than the meaning of life.
Happy birthday, Mike!
“Lo, There Shall Be A Birthday!”
Happy birthday, and what a fine way to celebrate too! Think I’ll go bask in the glory of those covers some more.
Happy birthday Mike. You are exactly 9 months older than me. So that means my parents were….I don’t want to think about that…..
Many happy returns to the day, and all that. Just remember: whatever age you are is the new 30.
Happy birthday, sir. You don’t look a day over 42!
Happy Mirthday, Bike!
Happy awesomeversary, Mikester!
May the big green pillock drop in on your birthday party and make certain plants grow.
When the MikeSter was born, you could get a 68-page comic for a quarter, e.g. http://goo.gl/Hbqh8
What can I get for 25ยข now, Mike?

Happy Day of your Birth!
Eat a tuber.
~P~
Alf, Groo, & Swamp Thing? All on the same page? It MUST be Mike’s birthday! Happy day to you!
I hope your birthday is as awesome as you are!..That’s like…really awesome.
Happy birthday Mike! I hope you have many growths unexpectedly plucked from your shoulders today.
What?
Happy birthday Mike!
Mr. Sterling,
Happy Birthday! Youth is a disease from which we all recover.
Happy Birthday to a fine fine man! And you too, Mike! HAW! But I kids the Mike. (giving you a big fuzzy little stuffed bull birthday hug)
Happy Birthday to Swamp Thing’s greatest fan!
Happy Birthday, to the only non-hobbit who gives us gifts on his birthday.
Are those yams on Swampy’s back? Yum!
Oh, and Happy B-Day!
I remember reading that Swamp Thing story at too-young-an-age in a Year’s Best Comics Stories DC Blue Ribbon Digest. Same one that reprinted the Superman nuclear war dream story. Yeah, the contents of that little digest freaked me out and kept me up nights for several years.
But, you know, happy birthday.
In honor of your birthday, I took the day off. OK, not really but happy birthday anyway*.
*Stunned that ALF actually made it to issue #43.
Happy Birthday!
Happy Birthday, and thank you for all the bloggin’ goodness!
Happy Birthday Mike. Let’s hope they go back to the old numbering for Action Comics, and then you’ll be able to be more honest next year :)
I wanted to be comment #43 but it’s time to go to bed.Hope you had a great birthday.Have you started to lose track of your exact age yet when asked?I think 43 was when it started for me but really can’t remember.Many more,buddy!
Happy birthday, Michael. Miss you, old chum.
happy birthday!
Man, I saw the wishes to your blogging brother and didn’t quite grasp that it was YOUR birthday. So belated happy returns, Mikester!
Also, I love Swampy’s look at someone inconsiderately yanking a sweet potato (or something) from his back.
