hello
I have 41 years and  i am french
I read some comics for my english   

[David Miles]

Okay. I'm 78, born on October 26 1938 Birmingham, England. I'm a retired Realtor and have lived and worked in New South Wales, Australia for 52 years. I live on the beautiful sub tropical  Mid North Coast town of Port Macquarie. I've read comics for as long as I can remember. In the early 1940's it was Beano & Dandy comics, loved 'Jimmy & His Magic Patch', 'Desperate Dan' etc. In the late 40's and early 50's my favourites were Fawcet comics Captain Marvel, Marvel Family etc plus westerns. In the newspaper strips, I loved the time travel adventures of 'Garth' in London's Daily Mirror. At 78 I'm still just a kid at heart.

Welcome David and congrats on your first edit! 
Other than the very large page size (fixed on the version here) you've had a great start.
Oh and we always include the JVJ Postage Fund message as well in descriptions.  Check out any recent JVJ book upload to see it.

Take care,

Hi, I'm 62, living in the suburbs of Detroit, Michigan. Surprisingly, I just discovered your website today: very cool idea. The first comic books I ever read were all Harvey's c. 1960-61, but I never kept them. In 1964 I bought my first superhero book, Amazing Spider-Man Annual #1; I absolutely loved and saved it to read and re-read... until my mom discovered it in my room and said I was too young for "those kinds" of comics (I was 9). She made me throw it out, but not before I'd ripped off the corner rectangle of the cover, showing Spider-Man's face, so I could always remember what had entertained me so much. Two years later my mother finally agreed I old enough to revisit the hobby, and I've never stopped. I've also never lost that scrap of cover art.

Thanks for sharing Buddy and welcome to the site.  At least she didn't make you toss out a large number of books and did eventually relent.
You'll see a LOT of books to enjoy here but they'll all be from just before your era.
Have fun with the goodies!

Bonjour
Je suis un retraité de 60 ans féru de BD depuis bien longtemps déjà, et collectionneur, donc en recherche de vieilles BD

[wiswildfan]

Hello. I’m 68 and have collected since 1956. My current interest is Golden Age DC, Fawcett, and Quality titles,  one of which will be here. But I love Golden Age comics in general and particularly Reed.Crandall art, which I suspect may be here.

[Yoc]

Welcome WWF.
Yep, you will find Crandall for sure on the site.
And if you happen to still have any GA books still please check our Wanted List to see if the collection could use them.
The link is below this in my signature.

Enjoy the scans!
