I'm an old timer. My childhood comic book experience was the early and mid 1980s where my parent would buy whatever comics for me and my sister from the grocery store pretty much.
Not every issue but a random issue here and there.Stuff that was around at the time from Spider Ham, power pack, alpha flight, Groo, Conan, Marvel Star Wars, x Men and the 6 issue John byrne Superman man of steel. Then came NOW Comics where Ghostbusters and Terminator they were pretty popular from NOW Comics at the time

I just started reading The Flash Flashpoint series a half hour ago. I'm on the second issue right now.
When I'm done with that then I'll read the DC Rebirth one shot and work my way through the ongoing Rebirth titles

Pretty much all night tonight I've been reading the Dark Pheonix stuff in original Uncanny X Men.
I'm still in the middle of issue 137 and they weren't lying about issue 137 being double sized

In the mail yesterday and today i got these back issues
Amazing Spider Man 352 Incredible Hulk issue 400.
The incredible hulk story arc ghosts of the past is what really got me into the hulk comic back then when I was younger. Though I missed out on a bunch of stuff during that time too

Yesterday while at the comic book shop I did my usual back issue buys since a sale was still going on. 17 for 20 bucks.
One of the old back issues is good old Uncanny X Men 150 where Magneto was really psycho by killing an entire Russian crew in a submarine. That and some old Batman stuff including part one of the Penguin affair story arc

My personal favorite stories in comic books
Superman' s Crisis at Hand a two parter story about spousal abuse.
Rogue and Gambit out on a fancy date in an issue of Jim Lee's X Men some time before Legion Quest
Issues 244 and 245 of original Uncanny X Men. The gals storm and Rogue out shopping while the men are drunk and in outer space

Not everyone reads Archie afterlife or whatever.
Jughead the hunger to me sounds like a tapeworm situation for all I care

What's Jughead the Hunger supposed to be about anyway?

Earlier today I was rearranging books in my old small medium sized bookcase that ive had since I was a little kid during the 1980s.
Problem is I need a newer bigger bookshelf for the other books I have lying around the dang house.
I got old and newer Star Wars here and there stacked in piles. I got Dune books stored away along with Stephen King novels in a plastic storage box.
What I tried doing earlier was just piling books on top of each other vertically in the top shelf and that seemed to help to save an inch. But then the bottom shelf of my old bookcase I use that to store and put away my DS and 3DS games and DVDS such as the 2004 Star Wars Original trilogy and the special extended edition DVDs of the Lord of the Rings movies and my DVD seasons of Seinfeld and Smallville.
Does Walmart have bookcases that are cheap from 30 bucks to 40 bucks?

X Men 97 to 119 I read recently and the stories were pretty good. Moses Magnum was kinda lame. Sunfire was kind of annoying or whatever where he didn't even recognize nightcrawler or colossus but somehow still remember Cyclops.
