Hi Everyone again

I have posted in the past of my pictures of my Heavy sixer that had an extreamly low Serial #,and still in the box.
Like new in almost mint condition
Serial # 57020 E Date from he 22nd week of 1977

Anyways I will now post pictures of the comics in their first year. How many of you remember this Comic Book Series?
I also have the second year and special editions ones also on the comics.

These are 1984 and the first year this comic appeared to the public.

I should also mention, that was not the first year the comics appeared to the public. There were the previous game pack-ins and several mini-comics as well.

I was able to get a complete set of the comics from a flea market in college (probably in 2003 or so). I don't remember what I paid, but it was under $10 (because all I had was a ten spot on me)...

Nice! :)


I remember my older brother had all those comics and I haven't seen those covers since like the early 90's I think. Personally back then I didn't like them as much but they look cool now. I do like the comics they included with Defender tho.
