Watching a kid pick up his first comic totally changed my view
I was volunteering at a library in Toledo three years ago, helping with their summer reading program, and saw a boy around 10 get super excited over a worn copy of 'Ultimate Spider-Man'. He just sat right down on the floor and started reading, completely tuned out. It hit me that we're not just collecting stories, we're passing on that specific feeling of discovery. What was the comic that gave you that pure 'wow' moment for the first time?

Nah, that feeling's just nostalgia talking.

Remember my buddy who swore his old game console was better? He tried playing it last week and said the controls felt awful. Guess nostalgia really does fill in the gaps.
