That's great! I'll have to look into picking one of those up. Any more, like tales TOS? Not interested in westerns though.

Thanks Deathlok

Sorry, but as mentioned, there were no Marvel super-hero books at the time of your birth.

 

::EDIT:: I was too slow. So here's mine, April 1968...

Cool scans and books guys. It's interesting to see what was going on in comics when we saw light for the first time. Also, I think giving the gift of a comic from the month somebody else was born would make a great gift for a non-comic collector that you'd like to expose to the hobby a bit. Might give them a little bit of attachment that maybe they can grow on.

 

I think I'll try to find a Harvey (or some girl-friendly comic) from April 1961 that I can give to my wife for her birthday. ----Sid

For a while it looked like I was gonna be the oldest fart here. guess I am the 2nd oldest to post so far. I was born before Marvel even existed. More importantly as a DC collector it was in the pre silver age era. Luckily I was able to find a nice key from August '55

 

oooh i may have learned how to alter my post to include the attachment. This one came with the lot i won from soethebys along with Showcase 8 and Flash 105
