They are not worth a lot of money, but they are so hard to find, especially in grade. Most dealers didn't keep them in their inventory. The John Romita cover on the first issue is very nice isn't? Electric Company was a very cool show. I was happily surprised when I recently found out there are a few dvd collections available. Try collecting a Near Mint complete run of this series!

I can imagine many a 6-year old being strangely confused sexually about it. I have an issue with Dr. Strange (yes, what a shock) and he transports Captain America throughout time to revisit early American history. Sadly, I can't recall the total story and I haven't unpacked my old magazines format comics yet. Needless to say, it was delightfully cheesy with a somewhat educational nature for young readers. ~P~ P-TOR Moondragon looks totally hot there.

It sits beside the pic of me from nursery school with my blue spidey-logo shirt (in my mind only - the action figures are in a auxillary room since the 40 Year Old Virgin came out). It sucks, Peter was my favorite character in my youth, but I can't read any of his books now. ASM has left me cold since the end of the Ezekial saga. USM lost me when Bendis killed Gwen. Maybe I need to try Marvel Adventures.... Love it - I still own a paperback of "greatest hits" Spidey Super Stories.
