Comic Collecting Icons: An Open Question

69 posts in this topic

We all know we have our comic book character legends. Spider-Man. Batman. Superman.

 

Entering what could be described as a second dimension, we have our comic book creator legends. Stan Lee. Jack Kirby. Steve Ditko. Neal Adams. Todd MacFarlene.

 

My question to you all tonight, is who do you consider to be our legends in the comic book collecting culture? Dealers, graders, collectors, journalists... Who will be mentioned when the time comes to write the history book on comic book collecting culture? Who has achieved fame or infamy through their actions in our hobby?

I took one out 2 months ago with my old 30-30 marlin. It was only about 30 yards from my house. I would have just chased it away but there are lots of kids in my area and I was worried it would attack one of the children.
