"Let's not forget the fun comics. One of my favorites; Porky Pig. Let's see; let's do a little research because we know so much. Thirty five cents, so that's still collectible. I would guess that that's probably; I should look it up, but I'm guessing that early seventies; maybe late sixties, but it has a bar code, so I don't remember if the others had a bar code, so it might be later than that. But you notice; too, when you do get comic books, you can go to Bags Unlimited, and you can buy backs for your comic books. This is my crappy version of a back, that I cut out a long time ago. I put a back on it to keep it firm, and then put it in a bag to maintain it; to keep it from browning. So that's a cool thing; those are the fun ones. Then if you want to get a little modern, how about the Kiss comic book? This is a Kiss collection, and this is like a comic book. These are very collectible, kind of like; in my era it was sixteen magazine, and a lot of you can remember that. Remember Paul Revere and the Raiders?; heartthrob. That magazine cost twenty five cents. Amazing; isn't it? Fun, fun, fun; find these and buy them."
