It affected me to the extent that it brought me back to Superman comics and I have yet to leave again. Although I have been tempted from time to time. But Supes is my fav'rit. Unfortunately, some...
Amazing Spider-man 121-149 by Gerry Conway.
Read these when I first started reading super-hero comics in my teens and for me, nothing has surpassed it.
You've got the death of Gwen Stacy and...
I made the mistake of selling the first 100 issues of PPTSS on eBay! The Omnibus comes with the Letters pages, but no Bullpen Bulletins or Soapbox. If you bought the DVD-Roms, they come with...
Very happy with the paperbacks! Sure, it would be nice if I could afford all the hardcovers, but for just being able to read Spidey's earlier adventures in color is a real treat. I also have the...
I know Volume 5 just came out, but I am hoping to get up to Volume 10 in the trades! After that, I'm springing for the hardcovers since they were from my era (and who could resist the upcoming...
To bring back an almost dead post... I was really disappointed they had stopped doing these. I would have kept buying them up until OYL! Well at least thru the heydey of the triangle issues!
I can still remember the thrill of seeing Supes 1 and 2 on the big screen. Years later, around 1990, I got to meet him. I was a camera-man for a local TV station and he was in town from nearby...
Hulk_Is,
The Green Goliath gave the Captain a good old fashioned beat down! However, the very next issue he had a foe to be reckoned with!

Then, I'm not sure why it took me so long to get to Iron Man, but the first...
Fun thread! Here are mine... going back to the Summer of '72!
These came first...

Well, that didn't stop them from releasing Ghost Rider! Anyway, I know that Daredevil and Thor were on the schedule. Probably most of the scanning had already been done. It's a shame they killed...
Frankly, I was surprised that Marvel even went for this... but dreamed that DC would too. My shelves are crammed with hardcovers and trades and there really is nothing like flipping through the...
I've just been browsing thru some of those DVD-Roms released by GIT Corp. What a joy to behold! I bought just about every one of them and am still very disappointed that Marvel never released Thor...
Loved it! And I don't mind it being a little hokey or corny sometimes (I'm talking about the basketball game)... I always thought Clark could pull off the cornball stuff. I just wish (and this...
Is this possible? I don't have an iPad yet, but I have virtually all of the official Marvel CD-ROM releases and this would be a big perk (instead of being locked down at my desktop).
Thanks for the replies, guys. My wife has been reading season 8 (though she is several months behind at the moment. A friend has been tossing me his Angel comics after he is done with them and...
Um oK the comic is officially out, but I am not sure if I can mention the identity of the Twilight person in this post. I do have a question that has been nagging at me though...
Can the...
My story is strikingly familiar to Oldschool's. I was also 13 and my first issue was 110. I had actually missed 121 when it first came out and when I saw 122 in the comic rack, with Gwen already...
Ummm, I must've missed something this season. Why don't all the Kandorians already have the powers under a yellow sun? How would their plan of turning (or filtering) the sun red thru a wacky tower...
I loved it. But like many others, I count the Death, Funeral for a Friend and the Reign as one big story. It's the story that got me back into Superman comics (having left shortly after The Man of...
Geez, you missed the deaths of Gwen Stacy and Green Goblin by only a few months!
Very nice nostalgic thread! The first Superman comic I ever got was brought home to me by my Mom, sometime in the mid sixties. It had to be a World's Finest because it also had Batman in it. I...
Thanks! Maybe I will try to get a hold of that older stuff after I finish volume 1!
Yes, I am finally getting around to reading it. I'm about 6 or 7 issues in, but I have a few background questions...
How and when did the Kingpin become blind? And what is the "understanding"...
