Boring story. I was googling looking for a place that sells magazine sized microchamber paper for my mag sized indies (I, Lusiphur/Poison Elves) and I got a hit on this site. It was from years ago, and to ensure that the guy didn't post something newer I methodically went through all of threads he commented on over the last few years.
Seemed like a cool place. Decided to stick around.

I'm Nathan. I've been collecting for the past 20 years with hiatuses as my interest/financial situation waxes or wanes.
I have a broad interest, but if I had to hone in it would be on mid 80's to 90's comics, a period of a deep and serious identity crisis within the industry that brought about comics that commented on the industry as a whole, a myriad of independent publishers, the rise of the bad girl, the somewhat controversial rise of Wildstorm/Image, etc. It was just a gorgeous mess. It was also the time I was growing up, so rose-tinted glasses and all.
Otherwise, I would only mention that I see comics as a continuation of the sequential art found in cave paintings tens of thousands of years old, so I'm both touched by partaking in what I feel to be the oldest art tradition and saddened over what I can't help but feel is its gradual demise.
And on that cheery note______________[swoon]
