That's one damn fine book Mr Boone, it has it all !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If only it were in good shape! All the pages are there, but it's held together with a big rubber band!

[srboone]

Agree.Have not read that book but it is an awsome piece of work.Are you sure it's patty cake they are playing and not just doing mma moves.

Might be, but it also looks like......<shudder>.....the macarena......<shudder>

I don't have many comics left from my days as a comic book sharp. Got rid or most of my stock years ago. The most expensive comic I ever had was a mint Daredevil #1 (bought for $1100, sold for $2000); and my guiltiest pleasure in comics was the Ambush Bug series (2 4-issue mini-series, a X-mas special, and a Secret Origins spot.)

What I have left are 21 graphic novels and the first 49 issues of the most recent Green Arrow mag. Here are some of my favorites of the graphic novels.

1st print Ronin, 2nd print Electra Assiassin

Green Arrow was always my favorite character. From the 70's guest spots when he used trick arrows to his emergence as simply a great shot with a bow, he surpassed all others in my mind. So when Mike Grell created a new GA mag in the 1980s--I was all over it!

1st print LongBow Hunters--the graphic novel that started Ga's resurgence.

Very nice Mr Boone - love the Watchmen stuff a lot (but feel somewhat uneasy with Camelot 3000 )

[srboone]

Well, it was interesting to say the least. I love Arthurian legend--this is a sci-fi story in which King Arthur returns to libertate Engalnd (and the entire world from an alien invasion led by Mordred and Morgana le Fay). It's not bad, but it was over-thought.

[Grant Wootton]

Interesting premise, to say the least

[srboone]

Well, Sir Tristiam is reincarnated in the body of a woman, so the love affair betwen Tristiam and Isolde was...ahead of it's time for comics in 1988.
