  1. 90-when ever it became "Green Lantern" again instead of "Green Lantern/Green Arrow" are definite corn. Itty anyone? Add the Adams books and that's just about my GL run as well. They are over all enjoyable, just not mind blowing or must-have or anything. I remember the 190's to the end of the series being pretty good though. Pfeh, never mind .. thought I was still in the Bronze and/or Copper forum .. I've been out of it a few months The Silver stuff is absolute 60s corn but I dig it. I have scattered issues from about 22 to Adams, and no real desire to pay the money to fill in most of them, but if you can patch-work the run together, it would be pretty neat to own.
  2. My most memorable is Star Wars #6, but I can't find my original book. So of the ones I still own from way back then, it would have to be this one
  3. I'm still not buying/liking the whole Ollie Felicity. That second thing that Ollie knows? Ya, seemed forced and unbelievable.
  4. Heh, ya, my wife freaked out at the ending. I asked her, "You don't know your Ra's history do you Miss Teen Titans?" All I had to say was Lazarus Pit and she worked it out gist of it. I actually still didn't see that coming .. for some reason I thought Ollie would win and Ra's would need the Pit. As an aside, all of this Ra's stuff is weird without Batman.
  5. I don't know how to say this any clearer: He's not going to come in and comment. B/c it doesn't matter what he says, the TROLLS will turn his words against him; they always do. Why would anyone voluntarily step into the firing squad?? who are the TROLLS? It truly doesn't take much to figure that out...look for the pack of individuals who all roll in around the same time when an "issue" has been been brought to light. True or not, they all pile on and make it their sole purpose to spew hate. They never say a positive word about anyone except themselves.... It's too late in the day for me to try to decipher a list. Could you post one for me? If you don't know The List, you're probably on it. I'm sure I'm on it. I like to be on lists. You're on the "Always Makes A Happy Birthday Thread For Everyone But Rommin" list
  6. He is in 114, and its a cool book too I'm still missing 111 and 115 .. one day ..
  7. I met Todd McFarlane at a con in his mid to late ASM days and he just oozed egomaniacal d-bag. So much so, I didn't even stay in line for book signage. He may have just been having a bad day, but I haven't been a fan since. Mike Grell mangled my three Longbow Hunters books when he signed them, but he was a nice guy .. I have heard differently. Stan Lee and Jim Shooter were both cordial and funny when I met them .. also, have heard differently. Claremont and Byrne were very businesslike, no chit chat or personals. It could have been they were rather a big deal at the time and had huge lines though. I never held it against them
  8. Stuff other people collect but you do not.
  9. That panel right there and the cover to LS #1 made me a Wolverine fan in the mid '80s. Of course, him being on every cover in the early '90s unmade me a Wolverine fan. edit - heh, now that I've finished the thread, seems I'm not alone
  10. My first real "grail". I had 3 issues of GR I got off the spinner rack as a kid (24,26 and 53) and read them a thousand times over the years. When I got into "real" collecting in '85 I learned that I could get GR back issues and finally have more adventures to read! After completing another childhood favorite from the 70's (Star Wars 1-6) I began working on Ghost Rider. Ghost Rider was my first true completest goal and finally getting a Marvel Spotlight #5 in '86 or '87 (I'm old, I don't remember well) was almost magical! I've never upgraded it, but here it is: So, ya, I had my Ghost Rider collection completed before the reboot with Danny. That saved me a ton of bucks looking back on it
  11. So .. that eye camera thing .. kinda Deathlok-ish ..
  12. Caught it, just haven't gotten around to watching it yet
