Nope but definitely as a kid growing up. Wish I had those old comic books now. Superman and Batman were my staples, but I did enjoy Flash, the Green Lantern and even a little Wonder Woman from time to time.

And the classic Mac the 97-pound weakling Charles Atlas ads.

Those were the days when a comic book was 12 cents each. When I visited my grandmother , she would give me 50 cents and I'd walk to the store and buy 4 comic books and get 2 cents back for change. Then I'd walk home and read all of them right away.

Life was simple in those days. I miss my grandmother. I went to her cemetary plot last Friday and prayed a Rosary at her gravesite. It was her 107th birthday.

Did you see the info on how they're going to do a remake of Wonder Woman? I can't imagine anyone filling Lynda Carter's shoes. And I'm talking movie, not comic book,.....but, just a note.

The only comic books I have are TMNT and The Crow (and a few other James O'Barr's)....in another life.

The cheapest I remember is 15 cents.....

I can't help but think,....if I saved all those comics from when I was a kid, what would they be worth now?!


12-15 cent comic books reminds me of when there used to really be penny candy.

I do know that Jessica Biel is going to play Wonder Woman in JLA in 2010.

There can only be one wonder woman...sorry guys that's just how I feel about it.

I took a friend shopping for some maternity clothes a few weeks back and we looked at a wonder woman costume to get for Halloween while she can still fit into it. Just didn't work...choose little red riding hood instead.

Hey, we all like to play dress up sometimes.

I agree, there can only be one Wonder Woman, and no one can take her place. I couldn't get into it.

And as for dressing up, well that's another animal all together. That can be quite the fun idea. I can think of all kinds of things I'd like to get into......
