Wellllllllllll........

Now that you mention it.... when I was collecting comics in the 80s, it was
so much more 'cool' to buy comics with the spidey head as opposed to the UPC
symbol. It meant you shopped at a comic book store and it 'supposedly' had
more value.

But, then again, we were all kids. I realized soon enough that it wasn't the
Spidey Head or UPC symbol that enhanced the comic book. It was the writing,
followed closely by the artwork.

Yes, call me strange, but I prefer the writing above the artwork in a comic
book. Call me bassakwards even! I'm probably in a small group with my views.

ME: Correct!
