Can you recall your very first DC comic??? I remember my parents buying me Superman #8 in 1987 while we were getting gas one night. Little did they know that it would be the spark that started the blaze of a lifetime of collecting comics! They would later buy me the continuation of the story in Action Comics 591. I still have both comics and they are two of my favorite possessions!
How about you? What was your first DC comic and why did it mean so much to you??
My dad gave me an oversized reprint anthology of Captain Marvel stories when I was just a toddler, and going through it again and again helped me learn how to read. âCollectorâs Edition #C-21,â if youâre looking for it. The book itself is far older than I am.
A collection of Batman stories from the '50s full of the original Batwoman and Bat-Girl, Bat-Mite, and a bunch of other weird Silver Age stuff that DC would rather you forget about. It was great. I also got one from the '40s later, and one from '60s a while after that.
Green Arrow Vol 2 - Issue 0 in 1994âŚAnd been in love with Green Arrow ever since. Itâs what started me out in Comics as remember going to the comic book store with my dad. He told me I could have one book out of the stack as a gift for standing up to a bully who was picking on my little brother. That was the issue I picked up and spend my allowance from then on getting Green Arrow books. âŚI miss my old man.
