Hi everyone
I'm Mike. Been a board member a couple years and lurked for about a year prior. Although I spend a lot of time on the site, I don't post much as you can tell by my post count. Started collecting Marvel as a kid in the late 60's to early 70's using money from a paper route (New York Daily News) and mowing laws. Had to give my collection to a friend when my family moved to Arkansas (Go Hogs ) as there was no room for them . Started collecting again in '91 (all raw, silver/bronze, and almost exclusively Marvel) and then stopped collecting in 96'. Finding this site helped to get me collecting again. Right now I'm focusing on finishing my Avengers run (lack ~15 books). I wish to thank the following members for helping fill holes in this run: sassemble, the_blob, mschmidt, zuuilioso, Flying Donut, stippy52, AndyBoBo, skypinkblue, ft88, LordRahl, johnenock, frankbearss, inconceivable, Kramerica, Ghost Town, loboagain, SNiPER, Dale Roberts, tkg2627, Foolkiller, Aces, chrisware, Passport Comics, 143ksk, and comicstock. This is a great community and I'm glad to be a part of it.
Have a great day.
MIke
