Glad you are still exersizing your creativity, I hope gou are doing well
Definitely keeping creative. I run a D&D (Dungeons & Dragons) game every Tuesday -
that has been a blessing.
Then run another game, once a month.
And play in an assort of D&D / RPG related games.

Some of these really bring me back to when comics were good, and back then I was clueless that those days could ever end: endless episodes of Iron Man tracking down his leaked tech, battling baddy of the month after another, Ambush Bug cosplay8ng Judge Dread, the occasional origin "must see first ever dont miss" issues... great times...
Absolutely agree. I am re-reading my old Avengers - all digitally - started from Avengers
#1 (now on...
#337?)
This is the Twitter account I made - as I read and post brief comments about each issue...

The new century has been dissappoingfor me for comics: 8 pages of story that would be more in place in a soap opera but Im paying for 24 pages of mostly ads, the story is a snippet in an appartment with injokes and references Id only get if I had read the last 2 years of comics, no action, no advrnture, just social drama of home life of a couple without kids. But at least they got ever drawn line to be a soupy flowing curve that reminded me of a plate of spegetti, with the color as rich and full and lifeless as a graphic arts dropout can mueter. A far cry from the prior Superman comic Id bought a decade before.
I stopped collecting a few years ago. And really stopped reading about 10 years ago. But there were things like Uncanny X-Men that I had from
#60 onward with no gaps, and so around issue
#600... I finally said enough, because they rebooted - and it gave me the chance to severe that chain.
I have well over 30,000 comics...
A bunch I was wanting to sell at a local convention (San Diego Comic Fest), but then pandemic, then my wife's health...
And everything turned upside down.
Now I have a garage - stuffed with crap - which includes like 20 boxes full I want to get rid of.
I will probably just resort to throwing mass bundles on ebay - for dirt cheap.

Are these covers you find somewhere or do you scan them yourself from your collection? I need to dig mine out for my kids to enjoy.
I find them online, because they're B&W.
So they're the artist covers - the ones used to press and print the comics, that someone has scanned.
For example - this site has some I've grabbed (just the scans, not bought the art) - just to digitally color them.
