I'm gonna geek out for a minute here-
I have been enjoying the past few years of Marvel movies. I grew up on the comic books and am glad they waited to make the movies until the technology was like it is now to make things so realistic. This is a goldmine of content that can fill theatres for years and years to come. Of all the heroes and villains, my favorite team has always been the Fantastic Four. I just have always loved The Thing ad they are unstoppable as a team. Recently, after watching the Netflix show, I have decided I now like Luke Cage for my stand alone hero. I never read his comic books and didn't know he was totally bullet proof. He's tough and I like his story line.
The comic book I really collected in order was Adam Warlock and the Infinity Gauntlet series. Nobody's heard of it but the truest of Marvel geeks from the 90's. It was a huge series that reached into a bunch of characters timelines so it was hard to get it all. Besides that it was back issues of Flash and the Four for a dime. The internet pretty much killed the local comic bookstore by my house "Comic College" Long ago are the days of digging through boxes and boxes of ten cent comics looking for just the right five or ten to take home and share with my friends.
How about you? Feel free to geek out on what you love or used to love. Was it Comics? Transformers? GI Joe? My Little Pony? Sailor Moon? Go Bots? Baseball Cards? Garbage Pail Kids, Barbie, Magic the gathering, D&D, Mario, Pokemon, WWE (really WWF for my generation), Hot Wheels/Matchbox, and so much more. I had some of these too but I can't just reminisce all day.
