    I really enjoy your videos. I'm not a collector, but over the years, I've been a "serial accumulator" (my term) of comics, toy, games, etc. I was also a retired TV animation producer/director. I also have a small storyboarding credits on two separate X-Men TV shows. I'm sharing screen grabs of you with the X-men & Black Panther comic with the X-Men ''97 t-shirt with my friend Larry Houston, director of the original series, and consultant on the X-Men 97 series. Larry is always glad to see fans still enjoy the show. He does a lot of comic con, so look for him in your area, and tell him I sent you. Thanks again, and all the best.

      I feel like Groo is grossly under rated, Sergio Aragones and Stan Sakai are true living legends of the industry. Although I have the complete Pacific and marvel Epic runs, I still pick up Groo books when I come across them. I give them to kids, doing my part to get them to read comics.

    Usagi Yojimbo is my second favorite title after Groo The Wanderer. It was in those very pages of Groo, that I would see Stan Sakai's name credited as the letterer for Sergio Aragone's funny book. Usagi has been published by Fantagraphics #1-38, Mirage #1-16 and Dark Horse #1-165, IDW #1-31 and presently with Dark Horse. A wonderful series, very kid friendly title I will always keep my Groo and Usagi Yojimbo in my personal collection. Mike, you've got to give Usagi a read, I'm sure you'll hunt them.

    In a time when a large McDonalds french fry costs more than $5, it's my personal belief that .25 cents for a intact comic book is ridiculously underpriced. Sure you should be able to buy comic books as a wholesaler at .10 cents when you are buying hundreds, but for individuals? $1 should be a starting price for anything based on todays prices.
