In preparation for our upcoming move I finally broke down and bought a long box at the local comic shop. Just in time, it turns out. All my floppies together pretty much filled it up. I would have had a little wiggle room, but the bargain boxes had some new stuff. I found four or five issues of Sensational She-Hulk and a like number of The Omega Men. I don't really know anything about the latter except that it's set in outer space and the covers look full of soap operatic melodrama. Come days, that's all I need to know to spend a couple of bucks on back issues. I also found the last issue of Sectaurs, a crappy toy tie-in book. I don't normally buy crappy toy tie-ins, but this one was written by Bill Mantlo. That guy is awesome.

Lobo first appeared in the Omega Men series, though at the time he was much less... Lobo-ish.
ReplyDeleteSectaurs. Heh, He-man with bug eyes and antennae. It's just like that scene in Big. "Lets take gi-joes, put gills on them, and pack them in sea weed."
