Im surprised that the old Marvel Star Wars series was still going on until 1986. Guess I was too busy with elementary school and watching PBS, the usual repeats of Bixby Incredible Hulk on TBS/WGN and watching cartoons on Saturday mornings.

Duragizer, I said the new writers working at Marvel.
Do they even know who Valance is at all? I grew up with some of the old issues of Marvel's Star Wars when I was a little kid in 1983 on to 1985 and I still know who Valance is along with some of the other minor characters.
Was issue 107 even the last issue back then? Cant remember if it was but with this new 108 issue, I hope these new writers do a good job of brining back Valance for this new one time issue.

What bothers me is that do the new young writers of Marvel even know who Valance is at all?

I was a little kid in the early 1980s so I grew up watching Three Stooges when they were on TBS. THeir humor was funny and still funny to watch.
Three Stooges were still popular in the early 1980s
Marx Brothers though they were kind of dull and not even haha funny

Today Im thinking of reading either Marvel's Essential X-Men Volume 7 or Dark Horse's Omnibus trade paperback Star Wars Long Time Ago Volume 4.
But Im not sure if I already have but I think I read the Star Wars Omnibus trade volume 4 last year or maybe it was Volume 3. One of them has the Empire Strikes Back comic book adaptation. Ill have to go look through them later today.
But I am still going to be reading Essential X-Men Volume 7 today

Well, its a medium sized long bag but its not huge or anything.
the comics at the LemonHeads shop the comics are mostly old and new stuff such as DC Rebirth one shot where its bagged and the price is 8 bucks. Even new issues like Rebirth Flash #60 is like 5 bucks at the LemonHeads shop. way too high where the original cover price for the comic issue is like what? 3.99 now?
Im probably better off going to the actual comic book shop to get a new issue a little cheaper anyway

Well this candy shop which is LemonHeads its a little downtown shop that i dont even go to a whole lot and i dont keep track of whats new but from what i heard from the main comic book shop in the bigger city they're starting to branch out a little at a time recently and just a week ago I guess they just added a spinner rack of new current comics at the LemondHeads candy and popcorn novelty shop. So far what I saw on their Facebook its mostly Walking Dead, new Avengers, Batman # 60, new Uncanny X Men, new Amazing Spider Man.
Like I said its nice so far since its just only new current comic books being put on the spinner rack at the candy shop.
I have a question for you guys, do you think a bag of different flavors of caramel popcorn such as Raspberry and Orange at 3.99 for a bag is a bit too much or an ok price especially if im trying to buy a couple of comic books at the same time?

Candy and/or bags of weird flavorings of popcorn to go along with a few comic books. A good deal if you think about it

News update
I just found out that a candy shop called LemonHeads thats located in the downtown area of a city for tourists or whatever, that the candy shop just started having a spinner rack of new comics. Stuff like some new Captain America series along with current stuff Walking Dead, Avengers, Batman Uncanny X Men new series and couple of others. no old back issues of old comics though. Just a spinner rack of the more newer stuff.
Thats pretty nice I guess for a candy shop to start having new comics coming in.
Now i can buy a few comic books to go along with a bag of raspberry and orange flavored caramel popcorn or whatever
