Any story you'd like to share?

He's called like that (Uncle Rich) only in this side of the world, in Spain he's called "Tio Gilito"

And yes, next to each other

I remember the Russians having a Silver age (late 19th Century).

I remember a lot of these; Vampirella, Heavy Metal (sounds easier to deal with than Metal Hurlant..., etc.

Took me awhile to get back to the thread too.

I don't own much of anything anymore except a pile of undergrounds and a big, but incomplete collection of Heavy Metal magazines.

In the mid-80s, I owned and ran a local comic shop. I operated with consignments in order to get high-priced merchandise in the store, and had the opportunity to sit around and read all the old Marvels from the silver age. Much of the silly DC stuff too.

As a kid, I had had many of these comics, though not nearly all that I was able to read in the shop. Brought back pleasant memories almost every day. I've often thought about re-taking up collecting, but dismissed the thought whenever I look at the current prices.

"uncle rich", donald duck and others, 32 pages.
The special ones, called "disney aventuras" came with 64 pages, and some of the fattest ones came with 96 pages or more.

I just did a little search and it seems they stopped publishing them in Spain I saw a huge book (from Spain) at a bookstore, tomorrow I'll go check it.
