Sunday Scouting Hot Finds Newsletter May 5, 2019

Growing up in the 1980s I really wanted to have my own comic book shop.  I had the collecting bug pretty bad and at one time had several dozen long boxes full of comics that I had either purchased from the store or bought out friends when they were ready to sell.  Sound familiar?

It wasn’t until my Junior year of college that I finally started to give up on the comic book habit. You can’t have two collections (at least on a college kid budget) and with guys like Matt Delk around putting me onto collecting OA lodges outside my own I made a choice.

It was also my junior year in college that I finished my home lodge collection.  So rather than stopping I spread out to collect my state and eventually section. For the next twenty years I never slowed down and today have a very solid collection of the classic issues from all the lodges in NC and SC.  But what about the comic books?

I still have some of the comic books that were my favorites like X-Men and Batman.  However, I did not keep up with the new movies and that’s how I found myself this weekend trying to watch movies to get caught up on all the details so I could even comprehend the plot line of this 3-hour long movie that we are seeing this afternoon.

I hope you have a great end to your weekend and if you’ve already seen the movie I’ll be joining that club in a few hours.
