So I thought it would be a fun idea to create a thread for everyone to post about their fondest comic book based memories of their childhood &/or teen years. You can talk about a single issue or whole series. Anywho I guess i'll get things started.
Today i'd like to share 3 of my favorite comic series from my childhood.

1. Justice League: Incarnations
I don't know if the popular opinion on this series is good or bad, or if anyone remembers it at all, but to me this book was alot of fun. I don't know what exactly drew me to it, but this was the first DC comic series I bought on a regular basis, and though it didn't last long, I enjoyed every issue. My favorites were issue #2 which as I recall had something to do with Batman and a Dinosaur, and issue #6 which focused on Blue Beetle & Booster Gold. And while I sadly no longer own my old copies of the series (they got ruined in a move) I still remember it fondly. Sad it was never collected in trade.

2. Archie's Weird Mysteries
Even as a kid I loved stuff that involved Sci-Fi &/or Supernatural mysteries. When Archie launched the Archie's Weird Mysteries series I was super excited! Sadly since the cartoon was a syndicated one & none of the networks in my area picked it up I was out of luck on the cartoon front, but thankfully I was still able to pick up and read the comic,and man was it fun. Honestly my favorite part wasn't the comic strips, but the stories readers sent in about their own weird experiences. I stuck with the book till it dropped the weird part of the title with issue 25 and just became another genaric Archie title. But hey, those first 23-24 issues were pretty fun!

3. TMNT Adventures
Although this series ran abit before my time in comics (1988-1995) I remember getting some issues of it for my birthday in the late 90's. My aunt knew I was a Ninja Turtles fan and she bought me about 6-7 of these comics as a gift. The ones I remember the most vivevdly are the Future Shark Saga books, those were pretty neat. Sadly I got them at a time where I would drag books & comics with me everywhere I went and read them till they fell apart, so I don't have all of my TMNT Adventures comics anymore, but I did enjoy them while I did have them. XD
So those are some of my fond comic book memories. How about the rest of you guys and gals. Any stories you care to share?
