          Superman was one of the few original megos that i owned as a child, sounds like a great idea.

          Go for it, Clem

            Superman is such a great character to collect there is just so much stuff out there. For me everything and anything Golden-age of Superman is what I like the most.

              Sorry, couldn't help it. Actually, in the last couple years I've kind of adjusted my attitude towards Superman. He used to kind of bore me because he was so all powerful, but recently I've come to appreciate the man of steel, and become much more interested in collecting Big Blue. The older I get (and the more I hang around these boards) the more I appreciate the purity of the character and the less tormented dramatic factor.
              See, Dave...you hit the nail on the head!

              I too thought Superman was a bore in my youth.

              I loved everything Marvel...like Spidey and the Hulk. Those characters were all about angst...perfect for a teenager...lol.

              But the older I get...the more settled I've become...the more I started appreciating Supes.

              I guess it means that I'm finally at peace with myself.

                Supes is my favorite too...but it's hard to imaging forsaking all other
                pop culture to focus on him.

                Even when it comes to DC...you need the "lesser" heroes to display with
                Supes to make him look good

                Then again, you and I are much different collectors---I like alot loose stuff
                mostly---packaged collecting is a bit more a comfy fit with focusing on one
                character, I guess.

                Anyways...someone said earlier that you have to collect what makes you
                happy---which sounds easier than it is to DO...that's my greatest advice to collectors----spend a lot of time trying to figure out what you like----you won't regret it!

                So, yeah, good luck man---and suffice it to say, we have simillar taste in characters....SUPES is probably my favorite pop culture hero...
                along with greats like:
                INDIANA JONES, LUKE SKYWALKER, SPIDER-MAN and PETER VENKMAN
                I love Spidey too...until Tobey Maguire...good grief...I can't stand him.

                  Think of me for any spidey stuff you might have for sale. And if I run across anything you are looking for, you'll get a heads up.
                  You got it my Spidey friend!

                      Just cause I like Tobey doesn't mean I think he's the "definitive" SPIDER-MAN
                      by a longshot....fits the bill for me nice enough to love the movies
                      and celebrate a favorite character though.

                      On the other hand...
                      As much as I like to minimize the bombastic success of Nolan/Bale---
                      I do agree that you can't get much better at the definitive Batman
                      than Bale---

                      ----it's all a give and take is what I'm saying.

                      Heck if I LIKED the end result---I wouldn't mind a new Indy movie set in
                      the 1930s with a new actor playing the title role.

                                I'll definitely get some golden age Supe's stuff.
