I would like to thank him for so, so much from hulk to spidey to FF48-50, but most of all thank you for the quote below. I have based my entire reading and collecting philosophy around this simple but brilliant little gem.
"I'm no prophet, but I'm guessing that comic books will always be strong. I don't think anything can really beat the pure fun and pleasure of holding a magazine in your hand, reading the story on paper, being able to roll it up and put it in your pocket, reread again later, show it to a friend, carry it with you, toss it on a shelf, collect them, have a lot of magazines lined up and read them again as a series. I think young people have always loved that. I think they always will."
