Hi - another newbie
« on: August 22, 2022, 05:18:10 PM »

Hi, another newbie here. I'm in my early fifties, from London, England, and I've joined here because I'm kind of going through the boring and geeky version of a mid-life crisis. The lost youth I'm trying to recapture didn't feature sex, drugs, and rock'n'roll, but comics, novels and classical music!

I'm not really into superheroes (although I did read the Fantastic Four for a little while when I was young) but I love EC-style pre-code horror comics and also any weird, quirky stories that are just kind of different.

Look forward to getting to know this site and everyone on it.

sounds a bit like me although I was also into RocknRoll but not enough Sex and Drugs!

Welcome to CB+ solarpenguin.  And to make it an even better welcome, Panther has linked you to the great GoGo Penguin.
Please join in the conversations and, I'm being a bit selfish here, let me know how you got on with GoGo Penguin.  I am a big fan.

Thanks.

I couldn't get that link to work, but I googled that video anyway, and really enjoyed it. A mellow, laid-back tune. A bit like Jazz only different. I'll have to check out more of their stuff later.
