    Mego book take 2 (1989)

    I've mentioned this before but for a good chunk of my adolescence leading up until my mid twenties, I tried to get a Mego book off the ground. It was pretty stop/start and the text is usually down right embarassing but what I do get a kick out of are my photos.

    I found these in the basement today and I don't think I ever shared them. These are from early '89 and taken in my basement apartment using my dad's leica. I got really into staging pictures at this point, although I was proud of them then, they're pretty darn awful now. I can't remember the reason for halting the book this time, most likely prom or my high paying job at the variety store.

        Interesting use of Rice Krispie Treats as a setting for your epic battles.

                That's funny, that was packing material I got some figures in and for some reason, I thought it looked really cool.

                          Think B.A. Where did you hide the Megos?

                              I really like the figures posed on the comic books.
