30 Day Comic Book Challenge Day 1: Your First Comic Book

The other day, I was doing my usual internet foraging (I forget what for now- all I know is that it was comic related!) and I came across a pretty interesting and fun-looking challenge. For 30 days, you get a prompt and have to answer questions about your favourite comic, your first comic... And so on! Here's a link to the full list! I'd love to see some of my readers contributions to this, as it seems like it'd be pretty fun and a good way for me to talk about what I love- comics! 

Day One: Your first comic book 

My first comic book (that I remember getting- or in this case, being given) was Fantastic Four #229 (Doug Moench & Bill Sienkiewicz), gifted to me by my best friend/housemate/partner in crime Robin. After I told him I'd watched the first Fantastic Four film and wanted to read more comics, he delved into his collection, and came out with this fairly battered, yellowed comic (Which is now safely tucked in a bag) which I now treasure. Shortly after this, Robin and I went to our old local comic shop (a pretty small place in Lincoln) and I was ridiculously lucky enough to find Fantastic Four #228! Since then, I have never seen any other issues from that arc, so I still barely know what's going on!

I hope you enjoyed my first day of the 30 day comic book challenge, be sure to check back tomorrow for more!
