What did you lose your comic book virginity to?

[Joy Boy]

Probably one of my mom’s Tintin or Asterix comics.

Amazing Fantasy #15.

Sure


Mine was Action Comics #1

I think I see what you’re getting at.

I don’t mean to say that I read it the month it was released. You realize that, right?

He probably thought you were not old enough to have read it initially (though that assumption may be wrong) or your first contact with it was as a reprint. On a personal note, I'm almost 60 and can even remember watching Spider-Man during the late '60s, but there was no way I could have read that comic as a kid (though I always saw it - and how much it was then worth! - at the LOC back in the '70s).

[TheRay]

Oh, well then absolutely it was a reprint. I wouldnt even think to argue that point.

Well, I'm 63 years old and someone born a few years before me could absolutely have read AF #15 when it came out.

For comics in general, it was one of the Gold Key Disney comic books - Walt Disney's Comics and Stories. My aunt bought me a subscription. I had never seen a comic book at the time. Super hero stuff came much later.

Richie Rich.

But I fell in love when I was introduced to X-Men.
