It's as if my memory can jump backward from one, but not forward to the other. Now, that's sort of the opposite to your situation with SS #5, but it's similar. Maybe it's because the reprint doesn't contain the ads that the original does, which are all part of the original experience, and that's why the reprint doesn't fully conjure up your earlier memories.<br /><br />As I'm sure you know, the cover of Fantastic #20 is on the blog somewhere, as is every episode of The Missing Link/Johnny Future strip.

That's a dead-cert time machine right there every time I unbag the actual issue, more so than the reprint, curiously enough,and browse through taking in Big John's art. Although, if I still had it, the one and only issue I ever had of Fantastic (issue 20) just brings back memories even thinking about it. I was more taken by the Johnny Future story than the Marvel reprints at the time and would look at the art often enough to know every stroke and cross-hatch with great familiarity. Funny how these things work.Philip Crawleynoreply@blogger.com
