also movie trading cards were made for pretty much every action movie. Dune had movie cards, Return of the Jedi had the best movie cards back then. Ghostbusters II had some awesome cards. Even Terminator 2 Judgement Day had those nice looking movie trading cards which I found all the time at the Kaybees store at the mall back in the day.

I remember back then in the early 1980s when I was a little kid, kids were able to walk around the block without getting kidnapped or whatever.
Also during my teen years in the 1990s, I still today remember that either Kmart or Walmart they had videogames mostly Super Nintendo, NES and Geneis games in those big plastic spinner racks for videogames where you had to flip them over to look at the back of the game cases.
and VHS tapes were on wall racks in the aisles and at the time Widescreen was a new fad for a few movies for VHS such as Star Wars and Lethal Weapon and Dumb and Dumber. New movies prices for VHS at the time were 25 to 30 bucks brand new. Im not kidding. 25 bucks was expensive to me when it came to trying to buy a brand new movie that just came out for VHS at the time during the mid 1990s

I have a question so I can know if its not just this comic book shop that I go to once every few months
The old Marvel comics Transformers comic book series, are the old back issues really expensive everywhere else ranging from 14 bucks or higher just for one issue etc? A bit overpriced if you ask me. I can get an old single back issue or couple way cheaper off of that mycomicshop website.
So Im just wondering if everyone else's local comic book shops are like this where the old Marvel Comics Transforrmers is a bit spendy for each single back issue?

Today an hour and half ago I read Uncanny X Men # 200-203.
Rhodes issues were good mostly issue 200. Didn't care too much of the Beyonder Secret Wars II tie in issues .
Now I need to read issues 16-24 of original Power Pack and then after that read Uncanny X men 205.
That'll be enough reading for this weekend

Im reading Power Pack issues 13 to 17. Then reading Uncanny X Men 199 to 201 and then start reading original X Factor by reading Essential X Factor volume 1.
I have a question. Is old original New Mutants really worth reading since I missed out on that when I was a kid back in the 1980s?

My guilty pleasure soap opera show that I watched once in awhile when I was a teenager in the mid 1990s was Days of Our lives and later on the goofy Sunset Beach that had Tabitha the witch and that weird doll Timmy I think their names were.
Nowadays these days I dont watch it religiously, but Bold and the Beautiful I watch from time to time. I hate the Bill character. such an ahole lol.
I have a question, what job or business does everyone work in the show Young and the Restless? In Bold and the Beautiful I know everyone in the show the characters are involved in a fashion clothing modeling company which Bill is the man in charge etc

When I was a little kid in the early and mid 1980s I and my older sister we didnt have alot of comics just a few issues here and there of random stuff from Coman, Red Sonja the movie adapation, Spider Ham, G.I. Joe issue 49 for me and Power Pack here and there and Alpha Flight and Elfquest which my sister was more into Elfquest than I was. But at the same time, we got our comic book fix by just watching the cartoons of Spider Man and Amazing Friends at the time along with the Bill Bixby Incredible Hulk show that would be on TBS and WGN all the time and the old tv movies of Nicholas Hammond as Spider Man.
Then when I was a teen in the 1990s thats when I was really getting into comics to keep up with whatever was going and I was kind of into Spawn which it first started. Dark Horse at the time I wasnt into but I did keep track of what was coming and going by reading Wizard magazine.
If I knew then what i know now, I when I was a kid back then in the 1980s, i should have had my parents get me more of Uncanny X Men and whatever was going on in Superman comics at the time from 1983 to 1985 before John Byrne changed everything

I read whatever goes on for old and new comics. Short filler story arcs before a big event are better such as Superman's Crisis at Hand right before Death of Superman.

Back in the day I was too young to even know about the original Secet Wars comic series but i did see the action figures in stores though.
I was reading Uncanny X Men issues 181 and 182 earlier tonight and now Im curious about the original Secret Wars.
So what exactly went on during the original Secret Wars anyway?
