| @GanaSoth Link for both issues. You can also order just one, your choice, for $10 each. But the pair goes for $15, so I went that way myself. You know, I've been doing some thinking on this, I've wondered why this is so cool for me. I think I figured it out. Before "The Lost Boys", comic book collecting was never a part of a movie or tv plot. Two characters come to my mind that MIGHT have collected comics are Ralph from "Happy Days" and Horseshack from "Welcome Back Kotter". But it was not stressed for either one. In "Revenge of the Nerds", Booger MAY have been a comic book collector, but again, no major plot role. "The Simpsons" wouldn't come out for another two years in 1989. There was nothing like "Big Bang Theory" or "Comic Book Men" back then. Collecting comic book basically had the same rule as "Fight Club" ... "You don't talk about comic book collecting!!" I just remember how awesome it felt to see a comic book store and main characters talking about comic books on the movie screen!!! It was kind of a "coming of age" moment. I really think the hobby owes a lot to "The Lost Boys" for helping to make the hobby more public and mainstream. Maybe I'm overemphasizing the importance of the movie, but I really feel it is not given any credit for doing what it did. It gave a ton of comic book collectors some legitimacy. It felt good to see fellow collectors portrayed in positive roles as major characters in a large movie production. |

| So, I’m a huge fan of the movie ‘Tremors’ from 1990 starring Kevin Bacon & Fred Ward. Every once in a while, I browse e-bay for props from this series, as well as a couple others. They had a mini series reboot planned with Ward & Bacon returning in the lead. Unfortunately, it was canceled after the pilot wasn’t given the green light. After some negotiation, I was able to grab two action figures made for the production.  |

| Purchased this large 20" x 30" SDCC 1976 Jam Page from a reputable dealer recently. After some research we've figured out most of the sigs not specified in its ad, which was most of them. The HTD sketch is driving me nuts! Last name appears to start with a Q[?]. Click the image a couple times to get a larger look.   1) CHRIS PARSONAVICH- Clint (Adolescent Radioactive Black Belt Hamsters) 2) JERRY ORDWAY- Superman 3) ART NICHOLSON- (Artist- And he drew Superman a hat) 4) JEFF NICHOLSON- Ultra Klutz 5) ? Howard the Duck, but by who? 6) ? 7) ? Familiar bear... 8) BARARA RANDALL [KESEL]- (Writer, Editor) 9) JOE RUBENSTEIN- (Inker) 10) JOHN ROMITA SR. Spider-Man 11) ? 12) LARRY MARDER- I can't find any comics work for 1976, but Wiki shows, "He earned "his living as an art director in the high-pressure world of advertising" in Chicago from 1976, balancing his time in that profession with "a remarkable interior landscape of the imagination that coalesced into the vivid ecology of Beanworld. 13) HOWARD WHITMAN- Bandit (Jonny Quest) 14) TOM MANDRAKE- Batman 15) JOE CHIODO- (Artist- Alien Worlds, Twisted Tales) 16) ? 17) TOM ORZECHOWSKI- (Letterer- X-Men) 18) DENNIS MALLONEE- (Writer- Champions- ECLIPSE) 19) DON SIMPSON- Portrait- I can't find specific work by Simpson during 1976 (Artist) 20) TERRY BEATTY- Ms. Tree 21) LIZ SCHILLER- (Writer- Night Life) 22) SCOTT McCLOUD- (Artist- ZOT) 23) SUSAN BARROWS- (Letterer- M.I.C.R.A.) 24) CHRIS MILLER- (Artist- Alien Worlds) 25) ALAN KUPPERBERG- (Artist- Marvel/DC) 26) ? 27) JOHN TOTLEBEN- Swamp Thing 28) DEREK McCULLOCH- Dork-Man 29) TOM POSTON- (Artist- Robotech) 30) ?

| Number 6 looks very familiar. I'm watching WWE Extreme Rules PPV right now, but I'll delve deeper into it later and see what I can find. | ||

| It says 86 on it. I think you are a decade off on the year. Neat piece. Frank Brunner does HTD sketches, but that doesn't look like his signature. Could it be Destroyer Duck? | ||

A very late anniversary gift from the wife! This artist was at Comic Con Revolution in Chicago. I thought this was funny. I guess she remembered and tracked the guy down to get this. It was a nice surprise |

So...Clara Scroggins is (was?) the owner of the largest Christmas ornament (and Hallmark specific) collection in the world. She lives not far from me and they were selling off her collection last fall (she's in the hospital and needs money for medical treatments...I heard, I haven't met her). My wife and I like Hallmark ornaments so we went to the sale over 3 of the weekends (missed the first weekend). In addition to the regular ornaments, she actually worked as a designer and checked artist proofs so had a lot of one-of-a-kind ornaments and a huge collection of signed ornaments. I picked this up at the sale, I was actually less than $25 (Don't remember why...I did NOT ask for a discount I knew the money was going towards someone's medical treatment, I think it was the number of ornaments we bought). Got home and we started looking up some of the stuff we bought for between $1.00 and $5.00 and have several that sell on ebay for 60-80. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clara_Johnson_Scroggins    |
