Things You Don't See Anymore Part 3

Comic books. REAL comic books.
Ok I know you're thinking, "What the heck are you talking about Rich? There are so many comics being produced now it isn't even funny!"
But I have to say that comics are not what they used to be. Used to be I could buy a comic in the 60's and it would almost take a half hour to read it if I got a good one, 20 minutes for an average story...and you would get the whole story in ONE shot.
Now a days your average comic takes about ten minutes to read if you're lucky, and they cost 30x as much! And you have to buy about four issues of three different titles to get a complete story.
GREAT SCOTT!

Same here. Didn't even know they existed until I saw them there. So random. It was ok.
