Hey guys - I don't want to be a jerk but this kind of thing should really been on the Music board.

I will let it go buy let's not have too many non-comics threads.

thanks

A very sad day. Such a connection to the history of comics.

In the late 70s, I was devouring Star Wars comics and Flash back issues from the 60s. I agree that his late 70s and 80s worked lack the...

This is great. I've been reading Archives Vol 1 with my 5 year old daughter. She likes the fact that there are so many female members.

I am offended by the cover price.

Sure, why don't we look into doubling my pay.

Waitaminnit, my calcualtor must be broken, because it still comes up with zero.

Yes - my company has been in turmoil for the past 18 months. Nothing terrible financially - just acquired by a US parent company intent on shaking everything up. We've gone from 125 employees to...

Back in the office today after a two week vacation with Kat and the kids. We had a nice Christmas, got some skiing in and just chilled.

I'd be quite content to never work another day in my life. I...

As the previous thread hit the magic 5,000 number, it is my humble duty to start another version of the thread.

Here's the place to talk about you recent classic comic purchases.

Another great year - thanks Kurt, and to everyone who contributed.

Every time I considered my list, this particular title always showed up on top.

1. Dynamite (Comic Media 1953-54)

This is...

Kat and I are about to celebrate the 100th episode of Married With Clickers.

I don't want to shill too much around here but it would be great to get some more CBR listeners.

See the link in my...

Yes this has been a bad month for free time.

The saving grace of being stuck in a walk-in medical clinic waiting room with Logan for 2 hours yesterday was that I found a few moments to brainstorm...

One of my New Year's resolutions is to try to bring it back.

Ever since my company was purchased by an evil American giant more than a year ago, I have been crazy busy and they have placed IT...

2. The Shadow

One of the happiest days of my comic book reading career was finding this entire run in beautiful condition for $30. That was 10 or so years back, and I revisit these stories of a...

3. Bat Lash

I assume this will show up on the majority of lists. Soooo good, and still holds up beautifully 45 years later.
...

4. Danger Trail

A very exciting series DC put out in the 1950s. Unfortunately it never caught on at the time, but it is amazing in all respects.
...

5. Black Knight
This is a series that became legendary over time and (much to my chagrin) highly sought after for collectors due largely in part to the gorgeous artwork.

...

6. Blazing Combat

Again, I'm not thinking out of the box at all here as I am sure this is on a lot of lists. When the box is filled with such great stories and amazing artwork, why bother leaving...

7. Rima, the Jungle Girl

I haven't read these threads yet - but I imagine a lot of people have included this series, so I will too!
...

8. Sarge Steel

Even if you include the transition over to Secret Agent, this still comes in at 12 issues. I just love this series - a great spy series from a publisher that was just starting find...

9. Bulls Eye

A wonderful, underheralded product of the Simon/Kirby team. Between the Mainline and Charlton runs, this series ended after a mere 6 issues. Too bad, as it is one of the most dynamic...

10. Time Warp
I have decided to avoid mini-series in my list and focus on series that never got a fair shake. This is one of them. Just an awesome sci-fi anthology series filled with strong stories...

11. Shade, the Changing Man
I imagine a lot of people are throwing this on their list, so I will too. Far from perfect, but it's a great concept and Ditko is allowed to let loose with kooky imagery...

I have fallen way behind and am scrambling to get caught up - my entries will be short. I may add more details later.

12. Caught (1956)

This is just a really fun, short-lived series from Atlas...

Thanks for sorting this out, Kurt and thanks to everyone for handling it so well.

My son Logan turns 7 today.

It's crazy to think that I've now been a Dad for that long.
