Bannings: Not as often these days.
Just watched it. It elicited a lot of old emotions in me. I was reminded of why I tried to get into comics in the first place, particularly when Claremont, Weezie and Ann Nocenti were discussing what it was like to work at Marvel Comics in the 1980s.

Watching it was probably a mistake. Nostalgia is painful. All I kept thinking about was how by the time I got my toe in the industry, that industry that I originally wanted to be a part of was long gone and I didn't like what was there now. Watch the documentary if you want. It's a good documentary, objectively... but for those of us who lived and breathed Marvel Comics in the late 70s through the late 80s... it can bring back thoughts and emotions that can make the rest of your day a little harder to get through.
