Luckily, I realized very early that there was so much more than just “men in tights” and what everyone else was collecting. That being said, I wish I’d bought more “love” books back when they were cheap… thehumantorch, PeterPark, comicnoir and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
