Description

Well, I dig this bastich a whole awful lot.

The piece helps remind me of a time JUST before sales tax ruined the ability for a dollar to pay for a dollar. And the paper dollar was now a coin. Loonies.

the $0.99 cover was such a perfect simple badass sales effort to match the simple, badass image on the cover. Yes, I admit, it was $1.23 Canadian but I had no idea what kind of discount my grandma got at Value Drug Mart in the deep SE.

The only comic my grandma ever bought me. And I can’t believe this is what stood out to her. I feel like it was an ultimate demonstration of her belief that I wasn’t a little kid anymore, or she felt like she needed immediate intervention to prevent a future Brony.

$0.99. dollar worth a dollar. Bite my lip and call me Lobo.

A comic I still have, and eternally matched with the time I was given the nevergonnagrade floppy. More creases than the folds in my exhausted liver, this copy still takes me back best time of being a kid.

I can think of one other piece that may come close to being the most iconic and nostonslaughtaltic over my 4 decades outside the ether. But this is it. It is it.

I vaguely remember the story, but like great collector who’s name is so meta you cannot deny anything he dares breathe - And Y Be All?- back then it was all about the fraggin’ art.

I carry this piece around the house like it’s the Stanley Cup. Loobs’ has brekky with me, hates whiners and is a great asset at the negotiation table.

I wish someone looked at me the way Loobs looked at it reader on this issue. I know he would feel like he’s looking in a mirror right now….
