Review: Silly Yarn for little boys(!!) - Going through these minicomics take me back by almost 30 years. Thought I had forgotten about most of these...Masks of power, Tale of Teela the memories come flooding in. Back in the day they were a rage. Spider-Man telecast at around 3 PM on Saturdays and little later He Man & MOT at 9 AM on Sundays. Even the merchandise were a hit...the first time these things were introduced to children. I always wanted a skeletor toy that costed something like Rs 40-50 back then...and was quite a princely sum. Never really got one and guess I outgrew the phase too soon, hitting double digits in age. This is a comprehensive collection collecting all of the ones that I had..(they used to cost something like 2 rupees and come in little slipcases and not with toys). Also has interviews with the writers and artists to boot, inserted between stories. The only downside is that a few of the stories seems redrawn or re-inked..but honestly I am not complaining. Review: A treat for the 80s comic book fan ! - Etched in the sands of time, but never forgotten ! These comics took me back by 30-31 years and the childhood I lived amongst these characters. It had all started with the he-man animation show (Sunday morning 9 am in India). Still remember how I forever begged fr a he-man statue but never got one from my dad since it was too costly for that time. I did manage to get him to buy me a he-man board game for rs 75 which is somewhere there at the attic of my house in my home town even today. Can never forget the stickers we used to collect which came free if we bought a chocolate brand. These memories had vanished. I feel good again. ๐

By the power of grayskull, I have the power.
Fantastic book, all my childhood memories were refreshed. I remember owning those tiny comics, this book includes them all. Paper is glossy and print quality is good. Fantastic buy for 80s kid generation.

childhood remembered
It contains all the minicomics from inception to the last series and is throughly enjoyable to read the book as if revsiting your childhood. From a new readers prespective nice to get young guys to reading with the moral messages at the end. Its sad the series could not remain on air throught though!
