The only that brings a really fond memory is good old Howard the Duck -- it was one of my favorites back then and remains so now, for both the story and art. It's enough for me to take it that Howard's quack up is due to exhaustion and the aggravation of dealing with being a smart duck in a world dominated by hairless apes so similar yet different from his own home catching up with him. And, of course, this is a fascinating dream-scape.<br />As for the rest, I still have most of these in my house somewhere but the only one I've ever re-read is HTD, the last time within the last year. Of the standard superhero stuff, I'd rate the Champions the best, mainly due to Byrne's art. And this month's Conan and the Defenders were above average, if not particularly memorable to my mind. Kirby's Cap & Black Panther were a bit of goofy fun, but otherwise not all that compelling, and I never got into the Eternals or 2001. Fred W.
