Popular Post kav Posted April 28, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted April 28, 2020 Several comics acquired a special significance for me as they were during hospital visits. the first books were when I was 10 and had tonsils out. I also got tiger pajamas. Then in 1975 2 weeks in hospital for back surgery-this is the only book I can remember.

Popular Post Robot Man Posted April 28, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted April 28, 2020 AllI got for my tonsils was a lot of ice cream... I recently donated a large box of comics to a local children’s hospital. Do kids even care any more? The lady at the hospital was very grateful. kav, ADAMANTIUM, Senormac and 6 others 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ADAMANTIUM Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 I never stayed over night, although in junior high, I did fracture my middle finger, made for quite the fashion statement with cast on my wrist and only the middle finger! Made raising my hand in class to answer questions at my private school fun for a change I would have loved some comics! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kav Posted April 28, 2020 Author Share Posted April 28, 2020 Initially I went to Dr for sore throat. He said lemme see then sliced abscess with scalpel and pulled out quickly. I did not see scalpel nor did my mom. blood and pus flew out. when I went in for tonsils he said yes I recognize that scar.

I bought multiple copies. $5-$10 each, mostly in lots. They have risen. Some have spiked. But overall, Kirby Thors are still undervalued. Thor 131-134 I have recommended for a while as the colonizers storyline is movie material, plus high evolutionary.
