The Top 10 Marvel Comics of the 1970s.

The Seventies were weird.

And An Elf--With a Gun! should totally be a T-shirt.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

The Top 10 Marvel Comics of the 1970s.

I had every single one of those.

The Seventies were weird.

Pfft, and they didn't even include Killraven or Warlock or Deathlok the Destroyer.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

I read all of those, too, including Howard, Killraven and Deathlok! Though I loved Barry Smith's art better than Buscema's in Conan, I loved his work in the other books.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Savage Sword of Conan was officially my first comic--thanks to my older cousin. Between that and his copies of the John Carter series, he single handedly got me into comics and sci-fi when I was 11.

Audio: Dan Clowes on other cartoonists.

Clowes' opinion on Al Capp doesn't surprise me.

Clowes is a true connoisseur of bitterness. Love his stories about Capp, Hogarth, Ditko and Wood.

That Ditko story was just perfect.
