INCEPTlON 07/26/17 6:25:23 PM #1:	The question kind of sounds silly, but a lot of people were not introduced by actual comics. So, how were you introduced? Comic Books Movies Television ( Live action and cartoons) View Results My first introduction was Batman: Mask of the Phantasm. Which was technically a movie in the theaters at the time. --- 124 Gurus were better than me in BGE 2015 contest! But the best of all was DpObliVion!

It wasn't until my brother was born that I started liking them through him, and eventually I bought some comics at a flea market type event. Still remember my first book, Batman: Shadow of the Bat #30, didn't really know what was going on but somehow I loved it and haven't stopped reading since. --- And in these smaller designs, there's something larger you might find http://tinyurl.com/zqwzc9a - http://i.imgur.com/gGlqWJ2.gif <cite>Snake5555555555 posted [p:883655541] in How did yo...

bryans7 07/28/17 2:01:03 PM #14:	I had read a few comics before, but Spider-man and his Amazing Friends is what sparked my interest. Then at the grocery store I saw a She-Hulk comic with Spider-Man on it, and my fate was sealed. Edit: Also I remember finding a booklet-sized reprint of Amazing Spider-Man #1 in kindergarden that I either stole or read it until it died. Seeing Spider-Man interact with other characters like the Fantastic Four and She-Hulk really piqued my interest, made me want to know who these characters were. --- http://s9.postimg.org/52c0cmqtp/2nbu45s.jpg <cite>bryans7 posted [p:883764829] in How did yo...
