"when the newsstand and the general public turned their backs on us"... WOW. Chuck is really rewriting the cause & effect here of why comics became less accessible!
I was just at their store today, never again, Im through,... The help desk is awful, like trying to be nice to some uptight, mean, dismissive bratty child, that woman was soo mean, totally unnecessary... I hate that I have been giving them and alot other comic book shops in the Denver area too many "second chances". When I told that woman no way would I ever return, it was like I was receiving her "real self", cuz that look she gave me was soo revealing, it was too mean, and no corrective action was taken... soo bad there...
GLAD TO SEE ROY OUT AND ABOUT AND TALKED ABOUT JERRY G BAILS AND TALKED ABOUT THE OLD DAYS. AND THE DAYS WHEN THEY WOULD LISTEN TO FANDOM. OH YES MORT MR.STAY AWAY MORT. AND MARVEL BULLPEN. TELL HIM ART SAY HIGH.
They are totally seclective, the staff there can do whatever they want,... I was just there, and it was such a terrible feeling leaving the help desk, yet again that woman there has to be so passive aggressive, so alienating, totally unnecessary, and the look she gave me when I plainly said I was never going to return, it was very revealing, very mean.
Why is Roy saying he co created Logan lately... all he did was tell other people to do a canadian character, and Dave Cockrum told him he had an idea for a character called The Wolverine.
Love these chats between Chuck and the promethean giants of the comic book industry. More, please!
Very informative, Chuck. Well done THUMBS UP to Roy Thomas!
Thank you for sharing this history of the origins of the comic industry! You are truly a national treasure. Thank you.
Always great to watch Roy Thomas!!
Got to meet him at free comic book day! Thanks so much for everything you do!!!
I have always enjoyed Roy Thomas's writings, especially, on Conan The Barbarian from the 70s to the 80s. What a great writer of comics. AGL
A legend. Thanks for this Chuck!
Two institutions of comics 🍺🍺
"That's the nicest thing I ever heard about him" made me laugh out loud.

Roy and Chuck left out Challengers of the Unknown when talking about the DC revival... kinda selective, hmm

Thomas is an outspoken Conservative Republican, not surprised he doesnt know about Matthew Shephard honestly
Not many people outside the gay community would remember Shepherd. Also, it's not a name that stands out.
