Dang, they've changed so much since I was young! Very impressive art work. But at $4.00 I can't imagine owning boxes of these things. Sounds like you've made a serious investment and maybe your collection is worth something.Helenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14967821142796562697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2495499100279472520.post-66035772172795165172015-02-12T14:51:15.112-07:002015-02-12T14:51:15.112-07:00I'm glad to hear Beth has a new gig.I'm glad to hear Beth has a new gig.

Gwen's character was perfect, for me at least.<br /><br />Comic book movies are dominating the world! :)David P.

It's about time Spiderman got to play with the other heroes I just hope they make him a little less emo and a bit more like the wisecracking teen he was in the comics.mooderinohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01523337588830695638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2495499100279472520.post-1980890118394551162015-02-11T15:14:34.550-07:002015-02-11T15:14:34.550-07:00Five boxes?

That was about 1/4 of the comics I own. Of course, I did run various comic businesses all through my 20s, and excess comics build up when you're doing that.<br />Want to buy some comics?<br />hehAndrew Leonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13964775673414653644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2495499100279472520.post-87930827890450006202015-02-11T14:44:01.800-07:002015-02-11T14:44:01.800-07:00Spider-man would be awesome to see in civil war.

You usually have to wait until next month to get more of a story, or buy a different comic book for a crossover effect. For me, I like graphic novels better because it's easier to just get satisfied on a story. Also graphic novels tend to carry more adult content, but it isn't necessary.Michael Offutt, Phantom Readerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10557969104886174930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2495499100279472520.post-66150972015059175472015-02-11T09:32:32.153-07:002015-02-11T09:32:32.153-07:00I'm not sure how much of that Civil War plot t...I'm not sure how much of that Civil War plot they can really incorporate into a movie but it is good Marvel is calling the shots with Spider-Man instead of Sony's half-assed attempts. It's funny that my sister sent me a trial membership to Scribd not long ago and I bailed when I saw they didn't really have any comics. Now of course they add some.PT Dillowayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09394481476862013009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2495499100279472520.post-78880063197350967002015-02-11T09:30:41.590-07:002015-02-11T09:30:41.590-07:00It's been a long time since I bought a comic b...It's been a long time since I bought a comic book.
