Gee, this is like coming home.  Thanks for inviting me.  I see a lot of old friends but for those here I haven't corresponded with, a brief introduction.  I was born in 1928.  I enjoyed comic books and pulp magazines as I was growing up, but thought they were dying out by 1948.  (It definitely looked that way by the early 1950s.)  I was drawn back to comic books in 1977 when I happened upon Stan Lee's "The Superhero Women" and started buying comics again.  Then all the publishers I really liked (like Pacific Comics, Comico, First Comics, and Eclipse) failed in the late 1980s and the horrible, horrible art at Marvel in the 1990s convinced me comics again were about to fail.  I was wrong again, but fortunately I started finding like-minded fans on the Internet and was able to read again (or sometimes read for the first time) the great comic books of the aptly-named Golden Age.
Best of luck with the DCM!

Welcome to the DCM darci. I think you'll find all of us here appreciate these fine books with the same passion as yourself.

I'm grateful for the invitation. For some reason, the invitation went to my spam box but fortunately I'm in the habit of checking my spam box because sometimes things turn up there that are pleasant discoveries.

Glad to see so many familiar icons.

Cool!  Still between computers, but ya'll thought to invite me along anyway, despite my long silence and lack of posting...  MANY THANKS!

I swear, as soon as I have a computer to work on again, I've got some crazy scannage itching to hit the interwebs!

Glad to be here, and again, very much appreciate the invite!

Hello, thanks for the email. Happy to jump on. I'm not sure what's all going on and not sure I want to get into the politics of it, having been confused by the bits and pieces I read elsewhere but pleased to participate.  I notice my on line name and password from another site are accepted here.  Makes life easier for me.  I've already found a couple of links that bear further investigation.  I'll try not to be so argumentative (if that's possible)  Grumpy old men are like that, I'm afraid.  Let's all keep in mind - COMICS ARE FUN.

Hi Gang

Thanks for getting the DCM up and running. Looks great and works swell too. Hopefully I'll get back to scanning soon, the old scan pile has been growing quite a bit.
