IMHO the Chris Claremont run of X-Men was really well written. Mostly, the art was pretty good too. Occasionally, the cover was not as good as the story.

Warren Publishing Company created some amazing magazines featuring great illustrations and scary stories. The painted covers were horrific yet beautiful at the same time

When I was a young boy, my favorite comic book was The Mighty Thor. Now that I can afford to buy the occasional silver age comic, I'm gravitating towards Journey into Mystery with Thor. Copies can be pricey but there are still some affordable GD to VG books for sale.

A few days ago, I was followed by Mark freaking Hammel. In honour of this momentous occasion, here's a classic Star Wars comic cover featuring a young guy who looked vaguely like him.

I have one UK comic book but my knowledge of British comics is limited. (Relatives used to mail us the Beano book each year when I was young. If you're familiar with UK comics please tell me its value. Its Tarzan Adventures Vol. 6, No. 18 (1956) Westworld Publishers. Thanks!

Also, all the Anime opening and closing songs are Sung by the same woman who has somehow managed to stay 14 years old since the early 2000s.

My first time as a vintage vendor: The Cloverdale Antiques and Collectables Show in 2017. I was selling comics, vintage clothing, First Nations art, vintage barware, and even some mid century modern furniture. My sales were outstanding that day!

Let me introduce Juniper. She's 40.1% German Shepherd Dog. She's also part Labrador Retriever, American Bulldog Chesapeake Bay Retriever, Dalmatian, Rottweiler, and Bull Mastiff. She barks at dogs and people she doesn't know, she sheds, she steals stuff for attention. We love her anyway.

Spider-Man was my second favourite cartoon show when I was a kid. (Number 1 was Scooby Doo)

Back in the day, the X-Men were some comic collector's favourites because there were no cartoons, action figures or movies. They were really only popular within the hobby. Then Wolverine joined and soon they became a pop culture phenomenon.

I'm a big fan of Silver Age DC comics. Of course I like Batman, Superman, and Green Lantern but I also like some of their non-superhero titles like Mystery in Space and Tales of the Unexpected.

I really like the Silver Age comics. Some of my favourites are Hulk, Fantastic Four, and Thor.

I'm a big fan of 1980s/1990s Indy comics. When you think of that era, the first thing that comes to mind is TMNT but my favourite was a Dark Horse character, Concrete. Paul Chadwick's stories and art was first rate.
