Tons of new followers lately, which is awesome! Welcome🤗

So hi there! I'm Vinson, I love to talk about comics (new and old) and have been a collector for over 40 years

As we chat comics you'll likely get a follow back, esp with a whole buncha folks at once

I love to add to a positive Comicsky ❤️

A closeup of the "Savage Empire" comic strip in the Chicago Star signed by Mike Grell, the prototype that became Warlord, which I am a huge fan

Right there with you, the kind of movie you can absolutely pick apart if you really wanted to

But if you just roll with it it's a great time
