My second month buying my own comics. I bought Amazing Spider-Man 152 Marvel Tales 64 Marvel Two-in-One 13 World's Finest 235 - with one of the greatest covers of all time.  Stop hurting my eyes. Wait, maybe you mean this is one of the greatest covers of all time the way people say that "Plan 9 From Outer Space" is one of the greatest movies of all time? That would be okay.  |

Nostagia trip, next stop November 1975I was 6 and the only books I got off the stands were... Avengers 144 (with a cliffhanger that wasn't continued int he next issue because of a DDD fill in, but this was my first Avengers off the stands and the habit was formed) Marvel Team-Up 42 (Vision was on his way to being my favorite Marvel character in the 70s) since then I have acquired a pile of books form this month including (but likely not limited to): Beowulf 6 Champions 3 Conan the Barbarian 59 Doctor Strange 12 Ka-Zar 14 Kobra 1 Master of Kung Fu 37 Power Man 29 (Mr. Fish!)

Is it just me, or are a couple dozen of those covers mislabeled?

I'm pretty sure I bought all of these as back issues (probably in the early 80's) as I was only 6 years old at this point, and probably only had a couple of comics, and those "talking animal" ones at that.
Avengers #144
Fantastic Four #167
Justice League of America #127
X-Men #97

Books I enjoyed reading (Because a quarter was a steal for good stuff)Warlock 11 X-Men 97 Master of Kung Fu 37 Dracula 41 Phantom Stranger 41 Hercules Unbound 3 For the reprints (because even a buck wasn’t too much for a trip to the past)Christmas with the Super-Heroes DC Special 20 (Green Lantern) Super-Team Family 3 Golden Comics Digest 48 (The Lone Ranger) Cover of the Month |

Off the spinners (or form 3 pack polybags) I got
Avengers #145 (thus started my confusion of how continued stories worked because of the DDD)
Doomsday +1 #5
Flash #240
Invaders #5
Marvel Team-Up #43
Marvel Triple Action #38
Vengeance Squad #5 (though I might have had this later as a Modern Comic reprint, can't remember, but know I had that issue as a kid at some point)
currently own a lot of books form this month, but not all that I had when I was a kid.
