Usually there were Gold Keys or other titles I wasn't interested in. But one day my eyes widened with wonder. There was FF # 61 with the Sandman burying our heroes on the cover. I got my parents to buy it for me, excitedly tore it out of the bag when we got home and was thrown smack dab in the middle of the best Lee/Kirby run in FF (44 - 67). I think that experience turned me in a Marvel Zombie for years. Left hanging by the continued story I was able to piece the issues around 61 later as my avid comics collecting picked up pace. Unfortunately, there was never as treasure laden a 3-pack again, even though I kept looking every time we went to the store. keythd23https://www.blogger.com/profile/00690368680707726203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7897120082101927069.post-7428586648801111732017-06-01T13:51:52.013-04:002017-06-01T13:51:52.013-04:00I wanted to ask you if you ever came across those ...I wanted to ask you if you ever came across those 3-packs!

Another thing about the comics in bags, I used to sit around for hours trying to imagine what the covers looked like, yeah, I didn't have a lot of friends lol Kevin Lakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11821459829633571075noreply@blogger.com
