My first was an old 80s spiderman comic. I still have it too! I should probably reread it. I have no idea what happened in it. Haha

It's amazing you stuck with comic collecting after that!

Just kidding, I have come to appreciate Milton Knight... to an extent.

I have that one, it's crazy. I wish there were more in that style though, I really liked it.

I really can't recall my first TMNT comic. It was probably one of the Adventures, I found a HUGE stack of them at this used book store, mostly early issues. It was great.

This was my first one, though I was not into comic books at that time.

Sequential art wise it was Garfield.
Actual comic book wise, it was this badboy right here:

That Simpsons comic reminds me of another famous cover. Spiderman? I have a feeling it has had a homage before on All Hail Megatron.

You are correct, my good man. Amazing Spider-Man #50.

not sure, but one of the earliest i recall loving and carrying to 2nd grade daily was Metal Men, with Green Lantern in it, and on the front Platinum is walking out of Doc's office saying that she QUITS.
I also recall Avengers (179?) where the gov't takes over and cuts the team to 7 members.
I vaguely recall a Super Friends issue.
I know the fave comics i first started collecting as a complete series were Micronauts and ROM.
wow, reading thru y'alls' posts makes me realize i am the oldest person here.

Nice! I still have the black-bagged version of that which my father gave me for Christmas in 1992.

I don't recognize any of the covers that preceded it, so that may have been the first issue ever.

The first Turtles issue I ever saw was this one:



I remember my buddy Mikey let me borrow it. Ahh, the 80's

Hard to say for sure but it was probably either an original Transformers comic or one that came with the MOTU figures in the early 80's.

If we're counting those, that'd actually make mine a Super Powers figure's. Probably The Flash...

I don't know the issue number off-hand and it was technically my brother's (although why he had any comics confused me), but I distinctly remember these two issues of Batman.

One had the Joker on the cover. He was sitting in a chair, in the dark. All you could see were his pants, gloved hands, and green hair.

The other one had the close-up of a guy who looked like he was exploding vomit through all facial orifices with Batman and Robin in the background watching in terror.

It was my uncle's and he gave it to me when he found out I liked the toys. My mom was kinda pissed when she saw how violent it was, but I thought it was the coolest thing on earth. It's pretty beat up from reading it so much, but I still have it.
