There came a time when the Old Gods died! The Brave died with the Cunning! The Noble perished locked in battle with unleashed Evil! It was the last day for them! An ancient era was passing in fiery holocaust!
Cerebus is low hanging fruit this week, kids. Cerebus 56 where only the price is original.

Marvel knockoffs of DC twofer:
Deadpool vs. Thanos 2

Is the knockoff Catwoman or Black Cat? Catwoman came out first but the character everyone now equates with Catwoman is really more patterned after Black Cat.

DC's version of the Fantastic Four.
Humorous story about this comic. When Superman #75 came out, the Death of Superman, I worked at a comic store and the owner wanted us to do these Superman bundle packs of comics for people to buy. Hey look, buy some older Superman comics for 5 bucks while you are here type thing. This comic was in those bundles. This comic is the first appearance of Hank Henshaw who becomes Cyborg Superman, which went up more in value than Superman 75.
I think restorative nostalgia is the number one issue with comic book fans.
A fine distinction between two types of Nostalgia:
Reflective Nostalgia allows us to savor our memories but accepts that they are in the past
Restorative Nostalgia pushes back against the here and now, keeping us stuck trying to relive our glory days.

Well I am going to use this one. It wasn't a knockoff at the time, but now it is. It was a trick!
