LibraLady1010, Same here. It was like Rocky and Bullwinkle--more mature humor that some kids (us!) got.

LibraLady1010, I did the same. I also loved Archie comics. After school, I would go to the store n stand at the comic book rack n decide which ones to buy n hurry home to read them!

1058 is when it should have started! They could have had a lot of great Spy vs Spy in the mag.
