(doesn't have to be about comic books!) ...Spider-Man's hand rising from the water, clutching the Hobgoblin's mask, and the word, "Endings!"

Awesome, I hope as many people as possible post here. IMWAN, you make it crackle! Kirby Krackle, even. When THIS went home in my Trapper Keeper folder, I became a back-issue fiend, too, with a serious thing for 1983/84 era Marvel.  When my pal T.J. dubbed THIS at my request  I knew collecting rock records was for me! (Though it was cassette then). It's invigorating to think of the feelings and recollections these things must give the posters, because it's such a moment of wonder when you discover something that is for you!

I think I was more or less collecting from the moment that I read my first comic. Maybe it wasn't right away, but I'll be damned if I can tell you when it DID happen. Certainly, I wanted "more of these things" fairly early on, and I developed favorites fairly early on, too (Of course, the favorites kept changing in the early years.). The first comic I ever read was an issue of SPOOKY, THE TOUGH LITTLE GHOST. I didn't know if I would recognize the cover if I saw it again. I decided to glance at Mile High Comics, though, just in case, and you know...I THINK it was this one: I can't be 100% sure, but that cover seems to strike a chord in my memory. I wish I knew the on sale date of the issue, but I couldn't find it anywhere. If I'm right, then I would have read it around the summer of 1974...or MAYBE 1975 (I think it was '74, though.).

The version of yourself you bring back to life answering this thread brings an exciting energy. True wonder you get lost in.
