I bought several of the CD sets of X-Men, Spider-Man, etc that came out 20 or so years ago. Covers 60's-2000 I believe. I've read many of those, but I haven't read anything more current than 2001. Even on the CDRoms, I rarely dip into the 90's issues. Comics were so much more enjoyable in the earlier years. Far less of a soap opera. On top of that, the art from the early comics are a thousand times better than the art of today. Heroes had muscle, but they weren't roided up skinless freaks. Female heroes were beautiful but not pornstars.

I know this makes me sound like a grouchy old man, but it's true for me. I find the vintage comics to be actual artforms compared to the gaudy "gotta appeal to collectors" aspect of today's tabloid-like comics stories.

Hasbro should make more of the vintage-look Kirby & Ditko figures. I think those would be insanely popular.
