About Me  | The Love Begins...Posted Jan-22-07 19:56:18 PST In 1983, my uncle (RIP) gave me a box of tattered DC comics. It had titles like Justice Society, Legion of Superheroes, Batman, etc... I was immediately drawn into them for the artwork, but later grew to love the characters and storylines. By the summer of 1985, I was hopelessly engrossed into the world of comics. My collection grew to a few HUNDRED books. In 1985 I was 11 years old. My favorite books that year? X-Factor and Web of Spiderman. Mutants ruled and the Black costume rocked! Comics were still only .50 apiece, so I would take every loose bit of change I could find, head down to the 7-11, or Lawsons, or UDF, or whatever drugstore chain, and buy every book that came out. It was nothing short of an addiction. When I had a book it was pure heaven. I can distinctly remember when Amazing Spiderman Ann. #21 (Peter and MJ get married) hit the stands; or when Batman: Dark Knight Returns had everyone going nuts!; or when Spiderman #300 introduced Venom!; or how insanely cool Gambit was in X-Men #266. These books represent hallmarks in my life. I rememebr when and where I was when I bought them all. cont. later.....!
