Don spent much of his youth reading Chris Claremont's run on The Uncanny X-Men titles and Amazing Spider-Man comics at Fat Jack's Comic Crypt in North Philly. Three decades later, he's returned to the hobby and is enjoying catching up on all of the great stories that he's missed. He's still looking for his own copy of Hulk 181. Please discuss comics with him @don_comics on Twitter and @don.comix.5 on Facebook.
