A lucky search engine hit took me to this site. Wow, memories of going through my fathers collection of comics and strips. I will be spending a great deal of time here.

Welcome, Rocketree! I can tell by your comment above that you will enjoy hundreds of hours here. I had the same experience finding this website.

It brought back fond memories of me rummaging through my 4 older cousins' closet full of 1940s comics in 1950. Now I can read (and possess copies of) ALL the 1940s and 1950s comics I couldn't afford to buy, and didn't have room to store!

Enjoy the reading, and I hope you will also participate in the forum.

You were mentioned by someone compiling a list of resources to assist those learning Romanian, mentioning that there was a number of comics in Romanian on the site.

paw broon · « **Reply #1007 on:** December 28, 2020, 12:38:30 PM »

Hi Tom and welcome to CB+. So are you learning Romanian? I'm sure there's an interesting story in there.
Anyway, enjoy your time here, have a look around and join in the conversations.

The Australian Panther · « **Reply #1008 on:** December 28, 2020, 02:09:53 PM »

Welcome Tom, we are an international bunch here. And I see that we have 192 Romanian Items here. You are welcome, if you have the means, to add more. I see there is a magazine called Rebus, which is is a puzzle magazine. This of course puts me in mind of the fictional Scottish detective of the same name, which of course he was given because a detective is a solver of puzzles.
Welcome again, and a happy new year to you.

Oh,you are likely about the average age of most of the posters on this site. The site specializes in Golden Age comic books and earlier, and who do you think was the biggest audience for those?
Come to think of it, I can no longer remember how I found this site. But that was a few years back now.

Welcome JACR, explore, enjoy,participate, join in, add your acquired wisdom of considerable years to the posts.

Cheers!

Hi Tom - Bine ati venit!

I worked in Baia Mare for a bit - north of Cluj-Napoca, near the Ukraine border. I speak some Romanian - there's some good stuff on this website - particularly pre-war Romanian story papers for younger kids - reading that's actually quite a good way to learn the language

Andrew999 · « **Reply #1013 on:** December 29, 2020, 06:22:51 AM »

As long as you can remember to find your way back, you will always be welcome here :>

Years ago I studied Esperanto. An artificial language based on the similarities of several European languages with Romantic language roots.
It was intended to allow a newspaper to be published that would be readable by citizens of a number of Eastern European countries.
Found a download of the first and probably the only film done entirely in Esperanto, the Incubus staring William Shatner.
A friend who speaks six languages watched the film and told me that spoken Esperanto was almost Identical to Portuguese.

Shatner speaking esperanto? What's not to like:

Hi everyone,

How I found this website was pretty simple really. I have always loved comics most of my life since I was a kid, and as a teenager and in my 20s I was completely obsessed with comics. For the most part, my parents would buy me comics during those years, and I remember my parents sometimes getting mad at me for spending so much of their money on comics lol. After I graduated from college and went off into the real world, I quit buying comics for many years. I'm in my 40s now, and around 5 years ago I started getting into reading comics again, but the more I would buy the more disappointed I became of modern comics. They were just a pale shadow of what they use to be, which is so sad. So I started searching for comics from the past. I was mostly looking for older comics from online retailers but in my search I found this website. I was so excited of the amount of material here! It's going to take me forever to read all that I want to read, but that's okay because there's no rush. I'm just sitting back and enjoying reading comics again!

That's about as good as it gets, "I'm just sitting back and enjoying reading comics again!

I rather desperately needed to know the exact wording of some missing lettering on a page of original art passing through my hands at work. I couldn't wait for someone to round up a copy of the comic and in "googling" (probably for the comic book title plus the words scans or the word index) found you guys.

I had to get a copy of CDisplay to see it, as I am new to these download-oriented formats. I bet I downloaded the file three times before deciding the file was good but I needed other software (a couple of other items I downloaded to test were opened by WinZip just fine).

Glad you found our site. Roy Thomas uses us a lot for his magazine.

LoneRanger04 · « **Reply #1022 on:** March 16, 2021, 08:56:14 AM »

So I?ve been reading a lot of Jonah Hex comics lately and really enjoying them, but I was thinking that buying comic omnibuses is so much money that I probably should look into finding a free public domain comic website.... by chance, I found digitalcomicmuseum.com first but I didn?t like the format of the site. Then I discovered this one... it?s brilliant!!!

The Australian Panther · « **Reply #1023 on:** March 16, 2021, 10:03:29 AM »

Well, you came to the right place pardner! Welcome to town. Plenty of Western comics here! Try the Dell comics and maybe then the Charlton;s, then have a look around at the older publishers for some really good stuff.

Cheers!
