My BHAG: To own (and even read) all the good comics!
Current Status: I’m mostly a Marvel guy. I’ve spent the last few years filling in the holes in my big collection (GI Joe, Wolverine, X-Men, Spiderman, Spawn, Etc.). I’m getting focused on actually reading them now. Currently reading Uncanny X-Men (500+ issues)!
My Favorite Characters
There are lots of characters but only a few favorites.
Series In My Collection
I have over 5,000 comic books across over 400 different titles.

Comics Update (2019)
As a child, I actually enjoyed getting braces (and endured the pain that came along with them) because it meant we got to go to town, and I could go to the comic book store?!? Ah…comic books! Was there ever a more perfect medium of expression. I’d spend as much of my hard-earned money as…
