As a child in grade school, sometimes I'd go over to the house of a pair of twins and read Superman, Flash, Justice League, and others from DC. Other kids had Archie and I looked at those, but I liked the superheroes better.
I'm not sure when I discovered Spiderman but I read some of those. I had a friend in college who was kind of a collector, and she introduced me to Swamp Thing and Howard the Duck, "trapped in a world he never made!"
Somewhere in a box in the attic I believe I have the full run (two issues) of Buckaroo Banzai. If you saw the movie, the comics were mentioned in it, and Marvel or somebody decided to write a couple issues. But they didn't have the satiric humor of the movies.
