2. Jack Kirby was an American Treasure

He had an imagination that few in any art form have ever possessed. You are still missed, Jack, but you will be remembered for all time.

12. the world's greatest comic book

[WCGreen]

13. I have this one in a box sitting right next to me....

But Spiderman 1, well, my ass hole step brother stole that one and Superman 37 and sold them so he could buy drugs...

Back in the 70's

[cleofus1]

14. i must admit

that is much worse than my mom just throwing them away...

[WCGreen]

15. It pisses me off now more thsn then cause they

weren't worth all that much...

Spidey 1 was only worth anout 75 bucks back then and the supes was worth about 25...

Still, I could have retired....

I bought spidey from a classmate for .45 in 1967......

[cleofus1]

16. i also collected some western comics

i liked rawhide kid becouse

A. he wore black...which was cool...just like paladin
B. he actually shot people...which was cool...most wetern heros just shot guys in the hand and nancy shit like that....

[cleofus1]

17. i will never admit it,

even if i did...but jack kirby also did romance comics!

[progmom]

18. When I was a kid and my mom gave me a Dorothy Hamill 'do

I used to go to the barber to get my hair cut. I spent many an hour waiting for my time in the chair, reading comic books. :hi:

[cleofus1]

19. wow

i think many kids first experience with comics were at the barbers!

[AllegroRondo]

20. I sold my X-Men #1 about 5 years ago

it paid for my honeymoon. We took a cruise to the Bahamas.

But if you want a good deal on an X-Men #94 in VF condition, I still have one.

[seemunkee]

21. It was my brother not my mom

He loaned them to a girlfriend and then broke up with her. X-Men 1-50, Spiderman, FF, Avengers, Hulk, etc. :cry:
Half of them were his so I rub his nose in it every once in a while.

[cleofus1]

22. as you can tell by this cover

trolls are a problem even in the comic book world!

[cleofus1]

23. modern comic art is good to great

but the difference is striking...
