Hull Marvel Tattoo World Record Holder Vows to Carry On
Tom Radford has 63 Marvel tattoos after more than 350 hours and £18,000, and he plans several more sessions to reach about 80.
- Yorkshire resident Tom Radford has set a Guinness World Record for the most Marvel characters tattooed on his body, with 63 permanent inkings across his legs, arms, and torso.
- The production manager endured more than 350 hours under the needle over ten years, spending about $22,500 to double the previous record of around 34 Marvel tattoos.
- Artist Andy Walker of Creative Vandals has inked all designs, including Radford's first Marvel tattoo of Thanos featuring actor Josh Brolin's autograph before his 2016 wedding.
- With plans to reach 80 Marvel characters, Radford intends to add three tattoos in his armpits, though his mother has declared his hands, neck, and face off-limits.
- Calling himself a lifelong, obsessive Marvel fan, Radford admits he might be "a little addicted to tattoos as well," noting he cannot wait to return for more sessions.
