I only have 1 that fits that description. The Batman in the back. I gave a girl I was dating a ride to Tennessee & her baby left that in my truck. Circa 99’?

Close as I could get, didn’t want to knock figs over getting closer lol.

when you held the kryptonite ring up to his chest, he’d fall over! (magnets!)

comics were awful when i was a kid, though. this was the most popular artist in the industry for a hot second

i was gonna complain about the gimmicky covers, but then i started looking at them and got all nostalgic

this is a fun article about em 10 Silliest Comic Book Gimmick Covers from the 1990s

Heard that. I had a ridiculous He-Man, GI Joe, MASK, Centurions & WWF Rubber figures with a ring. When I was little I played every sport. My dad said, I’ll buy u a wrestler for every goal u score. B4 a soccer game. I scored 8. They were like $16 a piece. He never said it again.

rwk · May 3, 2020, 12:51pm

@biff_pow very cool. Do you have the other 3 Spider-Man anniversary comics?

Viciousdark · May 3, 2020, 1:18pm

Some of my favorite comic that I’ve had since I was a kid. Still remember buying these out of the 25 cent comic boxes when nobody wanted them lol .

biff_pow · May 3, 2020, 3:35pm

I THINK so. I haven’t dug through my long boxes in like 15 years!

biff_pow · May 3, 2020, 3:36pm

1st appearance of Bishop!! I don’t know what it’s worth now, but it was a speculator book back then

Viciousdark · May 3, 2020, 5:26pm

It is @biff_pow, I still get most of my comics from the 25 & 50 cent boxes. I’ve found so many treasures in there you wouldn’t believe.

I have that Kilowog and Aquaman toy (or at least HAD them, but I think there still in the house

90’s Superboy comics and figures!! (The Superman Unchanined variant cover in the pic obviously isn’t from my childhood but it has the right vibe to be included lol)

rwk · May 7, 2020, 4:45am

Hey guys, sorry I’ve been so inactive… This whole corona thing kicked into high gear especially since I have about a week until my freshman year of high school is over. Gotta get them grades up.
