Welcome to DCM - how old are you poll?

[madscan]

I'm 57 since a few days. I love comics and of course, am more a european comics reader as I am French.
I started writing about comics since a few years. I did a lot of interviews of french authors in the 90' (I had the chance to do one of Bill Sienckiewicz).
I read a lot and am very interested in the evolution of comics, bande dessinée and mangas and the interactions between the 3 continents.
I just finished writing an article about Gustave Verbeck for the French Museum of Comics (CNBDI). It should be online next month.
I love all kind of comics as long as they are quality ones (very subjectiv I know :-D)

Hi, there.

I'm old enough to have had my comic book collection, consisting of Silver Age Marvels issues 1-10 of Daredevil, JIM, Avengers, FF, AS (and many more) thrown out by my mom and young enough to want to try to replace much of my original collection. Have managed to acquire a lot of them, at a considerably greaterer cost, but the joy of collecting still remains...

[Yoc]

Welcome Jay and good luck with restoring your lost collection.
Meanwhile you can see a lot of books that predate the SA at no cost right here.
Enjoy discovering the wonders of the Golden Age!

Hello, my name is Nemo and I'm 48. Exactly 40 years ago I spent the summer with my grandma and while exploring her basement I came upon a huge box of comics from the 50s, mostly Archie, been a comic nut ever since.

Bonjour de France; j'ai 64 ans, je suis à la veille de la retraite. Je ne parle pas la langue anglaise. Alors je me débrouille avec translate de google, mais le sens des traduction sont parfois un peu étange, voir bizarre. Dons ne m'en veillez pas de ne pas m'engager dans des discussion, dont la langue n'est pas naturelle pour moi.

Cependant j'ai d'écouvert votre site par le site THOT, qui présente ainsi  : "Digital Comic Museum (DCM) est un site web dédié aux Comics tombés dans le domaine public et publiés au cours de l'âge d'or (« Golden Age ») de la bande dessinée américaine (1938-1945). L'objectif de DCM est d'offrir un accès gratuit à des centaines de bandes dessinées publiées avant 1959, numérisées et téléversées sur la plateforme par les utilisateurs."

J'ai été très heureux de cette initiative de garder de l'oubli le travail lourd et difficile des graphistes de la bande dessinée. Car fanchement c'est pas un travail pour ceux qui veulent de venir riche. Je suis très attentif à la qualité du graphisme, du lettrage, et des style aboutit. J'aime bien de temps à autre éplucher le travail de nos ancêtres. Et on n'a pas fini d'apprendre d'eux, et de leur manière de faire.

Morning all! I'm from the Southern United States and sweet Primus, I feel like the baby of the group at 21. Oh well, age is just a number.

I'm a 53 year old school teacher. With the popularity of the movies I have seen a rise in interest in comics. I have had more kids look at the comics I have on a comic rack in the back of my room.

Wait! You have a Comic book Rack at the back of your room..?

Where were you when I was a kid?!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh never mind, I forgot I'm nearly fifty.

I'm new here, I'm limited to using my phone (because my computer is broke and old), and I'm 45.  Nice to meet everyone. I went nuts in the past day or so and downloaded too much stuff. Namely, The Blue Beetle, Cat-Man, Captain Marvel, Daredevil (the original, which I just became acquainted with), various jungle girls, various horror comics and a couple Western comics.  

I used to create my own comics using my notebook paper when I was young and naive. I more recently wrote prose story versions of some of these characters.  Firegirl and The Kid Elite are the names of my characters.  They are kids, obviously.  

I somehow convinced my English teacher in high school to add comics to the magazines she kept on a rack in the back of her classroom.

I'm 51 and I've been reading comics since 1974. The Avengers was my comic of choice, but any Marvel would do.
