gunsmokin Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 Hello Everyone, I've been a marvel addict for nearly 40 years (since age 7) and I love anything from the silver and bronze age. I've been a member for several years but just started posting recently thanks to some great tutorials on how to post pictures from some great members! what a wealth of information to have at my finger tips, not to mention the friendships! My name is Jim, my friends call me Hook and here on I've chosen Gunsmokin' for my love of silver age marvel westerns.

thunsicker Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 Hi guys, I'm Tim and I'm a bit of a collecting schizophrenic.

HarveySwick Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 guys. I'm Justin. I collect mostly Daredevil, ASM, First Appearances, SA and BA Marvels and a few Moderns. I grew up collecting from when I was 7 until I was 19. I worked in a comic shop for a few years when I was younger. Then took about a 15 year hiatus while still picking up an occasional TPB and got back into it about a year ago and love it now more than ever.

I collect Spirit Sections, Steranko Covers, Schomburg Covers, and early silver age Marvels. Glad to be here! Spirit, Steranko, Schomburg and Silver Age Marvels all start with S, so there's nothing schizophrenic about it. It's perfectly collectorish.
