| I was always a fan of Robert E. Howard's creations, specifically Conan and Solomon Kane. As for books, I too loved Far Side and Calvin-n-Hobbes, as well as the ElfQuest series.

| In Poland there were very popular two series of comics : " Tytus,Romek i Atomek" and "Kapitan Żbik" (Captain Wildcat).I had all issues of these.There is a possiblility of buying these at second-hand bookshops or the new re-issued ones.

| As a youngster, back in the 40's, I remember Superman, Captain Marvel, Captain Midnight, Flash Gordon, Dick Tracy, Terry & the Pirates, Batman & Robin, Jack Armstrong, Sky King, The Phantom, Don Winslow [of the Navy], Tarzan, Smilin' Jack, and, Blackhawk [who flew Grumman Skyrockets]. And probably many, many more. Not many of them around any more.... Charles
