If you're like me then vintage dinosaur monster movie comic books are right up your alley - DINOSAURUS! THE VALLEY OF GWANGI! GORGO! Get all three as one lot (cheap!) at my eBay shop here: ebay.us/m/fwI0wX

Thursday night TV …in 1978

My next OS install

Before internet get-rich schemes, there were the backs of comic books.

Listed a spooky duo of vintage JOSIE AND THE PUSSYCATS from the early '70s on my eBay shop here: ebay.us/m/hwCI1t The cartoon series is fun but these comic books are even better - the Pussycats get into some serious sh!t.

Those dirty rings SMH

Resurrected an old hard drive and found some old scans I did from the early 90s - including this box top of a 1979 Collegeville Halloween costume of Frodo from THE LORD OF THE RINGS animated feature. I stupidly sold it through an ad in Toy Shop News back then (pre-eBay) probably for peanuts 💲🥜🤦

STARLOG magazines lot listed at my eBay shop here: ebay.us/m/HCFgys STARLOG was a staple of my pre-teen and teen years. It was one of the many reasons to visit the magazines rack at my local pharmacy back then. Fun reads to see how things have aged well or not since their time.

Thursday nights on CBS in 1979. Well, only four Thursdays in April and May of 1979.

I always think of this episode of the 1950 radio series, “Dimension X,” whenever I see or hear a news story about the problems with AI — archive.org/details/OTRR... I’m surprised no one has named their AI service “Joe Logic” as an homage.

This is who runs this account.

Lot of 12 vintage Marvel STAR WARS comic books from 1978-1979 newly listed to my eBay store here - ebay.us/m/VZKnif Back then I had a subscription to SW and looked forward to a new issue in the mail every month. These comic books were a SW fan's lifeline between films.

If only.

If you’re going to give a chimp a gun, it might as well be two.

Honestly if I had the money I’d get this in a heartbeat. I’m thinking Rappin’ Rodney is the style for Summer ‘26.

Just listed on my ebay shop, a lot of vintage Walt Disney's Uncle Scrooge comic books - ebay.us/m/Tkx2BK I like picking up "read grade" copies of comic books I wouldn't otherwise bother with, just to see what's inside their pages. This is a fun lot to flip through.

Lot of 6 issues from the usual gang of idiots at my eBay store here: ebay.us/m/SEjaFm MAD magazine was such a constant thread through my childhood - I remember spending the summer of '77 floating in our pool reading that Super Special #24 over and over. That was awesome.

Just picked up vintage newsstand versions of Marvel STAR WARS #7-10 off WhatNot for only $6 ea including tax and shipping. Can’t touch these books on eBay for less than $10 ea. If you want good deals too then sign up on WhatNot whatnot.com/invite/retro... and follow seller @funmerica_comics.

Nice lot of vintage CRACKED magazines listed at my eBay store here: ebay.us/m/ujeHFa If you’re a fan of EC-ex-pat artist Severin then you’ll love these.

Not to be a shill for WhatNot but I got this comic book for a great deal <$10 all in. Can’t touch this book on eBay for less than $25. Whatnot is fun, it’s like QVC for everyone. Great for comics. Open an account through this link and we both get some spending moola! whatnot.com/invite/retro...

These are awful - Happy Easter!

Lot of 5 vintage sci-fi mags from the 1978 cash-in period post-STAR WARS - 1978’s SPACE WARS! 1984’s SPACE VOYAGER! 1990’s SPACE MONSTERS! Take a look here: ebay.us/m/rOOSz3

I have 5 issues of CRAZY magazine, Marvel’s answer to MAD, listed on eBay. Issues range from 1974-1980 so if you’re an old Gen-Xer like me then you’ll get all the humor references! Get ‘em here: www.ebay.com/itm/22728293...

You can have it all

Who else sported a white Fruit-of-the-Loom undershirt with an off-center “KLINGON POWER” iron-on as a kid in the 1970s?

Scored a grail from 1977 off eBay this month.

Be mine.

What I’m wearing all this weekend.

LUDEN’S - the medicinal candy found at the bottom of grandma’s handbag.

In 1989 we could crunch all we want, they made more.
