Back when I was a boy I didn't get to go to the movies a lot and there wasn't Jack on tv ( the 3 channel days ) . So reading was where it was at but books didn't have pictures .. but comics did
The first comic I got was actually a stack of 5 or 6 that my ma brought home from a used book store shed frequent. It was a place where you'd bring in the books you read , you'd get credit for them and the credit would be applied to books you bought . Anyway , ma got some books one day and also brought me home a small stack of comics books . I think they were real kid stuff , like Casper and spooky , but the one that freaked me out was a back issue ( at that time ) of Adventure comics with super boy and the legion of super hero's. From that day on I asked my ma to take me to that book store if she were going
I eventually got got a good pile of them , especially when I discovered A&M Comics in Miami . I emassed a sizeable collection , many of which i sold off in the 90's sadly , though I bought great stuff for my electric guitars
Anyway , super boy , captain America, , Tarzan , avengers , green lantern , sub mariner and sgt. Fury and Rock where tbe titles that I loved . I'd snag a fantastic four sometimes cause I liked the thing . Marvel two in one featured the thing and whomever else ... that was a good comic but I didn't buy many for some reason .
The comic that turned me on to marvel comics was Marvel Triple Action ( reprints of early avengers ) .... blew my mind and introduced me to captain America
I'm just rambling . I dig comics, it was like going to a movie in your mind
I scored these yesterday ....
Any other comic folks ??
