My first issues of Warren titles: This was my first issue of Eerie as well. I still remember the ends of the Adams and Colan stories.

The first American comic-book I bought with my own money was a translation: I was not allowed to read super-hero comics due to parental fiat, but martial artists and Tarzan-type characters were all right... and so, after having met a certain Cimmerian in the pages of a friend's comic, I quickly purchased this one : ... and the rest is history!

Sounds like a Jackie Chan movie... -M I think that was The Sommelier of Kung Fu, which was a sequel to Drunken Master.

My first First Issue... I was so enamored with this, and the fact that it was the first issue, I really treasured it. I got it when I was 10 or so, from a garage sale, and it was already beat to hell. I think I still have it.

The first First Issue that I spent "collector money" on, as a back-issue... I think it was 9 dollars.

My first issue of Micronauts was #16: I missed the Golden era, but still got a lot of covers for a while. This was actually the beginning of one of my first subscriptions (the other was Marvel Team-Up.) I must have already been a fan of the toys. (I still think they are some of the best toys ever made.) I followed the Micronauts for most of their run, and also the second series. There was a gap in the late 20s/early 30s as I decided to try out other titles, but I've been filling those in, and I have most of the Golden issues now too.

My first issue was No. 2, after having read my friend's copy of the first issue in school... it was just years later before I could find a No. 1. I, too, collected every issue, including the subsequent series. It was my favorite comic ever. Micronauts was my second subscription, starting with issue 15 or so... I was already subscribed to Marvel's Star Trek. Funny story: When Star Trek was cancelled, they automatically subscribed me to the title that took it's production slot.. Team America. OOF. I suffered through 4 issues of that.

This was the first Number One I ever bought, but this was 1964, way before there were announcements on the cover.
