Robot Man Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 I grew up in the Silver Age. My earliest comics were DC war and Batman then graduated to Marvels as they first came out. TV was very important back then. Seems every TV show had at least, a lunch box, trading cards and of course comic books. I recently received this in the mail. Wasn't looking for it, nor do I collect them but I loved the show and this one had the distinction of being autographed by Napoleon Solo!

Popular Post Robot Man Posted July 9, 2020 Author Popular Post Share Posted July 9, 2020 Another of my favorite shows was the Beverly Hillbillies. Couldn't wait for the next one. Many years ago I had a vendor that just happened to be married to Buddy Ebsen. I mentioned to her what a big fan was and that I was a comic collector. She called me one day and said she was coming by and "someone" would be with her. She suggested I might want to bring one of my comic books. I went out to her car and there was Jed Clampett! We talked a little bit, he gave me a little "whoo doggies" and signed my book. What a thrill! OtherEric, RayJr, Hutch88 and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1950's war comics Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 when i was real young 6, 7 years old i would watch Hogans Heroes and i thought it was a real war show , i didn't get any of the jokes,.. all i knew was that there were germans and during the opening credits there was an explosion , so i thought it was a real war show , when i got older i loved the show , especially Sgt Schultz..

Man, I loved Hogan's Heroes and still do. There is a channel that shows two a night back to back. McKale's Navy was also cool. About the ONLY two shows my dad and I could watch together...

The logo on the cover is a CBS logo, so I'm surprised it didn't come through that affiliate. Oh well, YouTube probably has some if you're interested. 1950's war comics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
