This would have made the best post in the steemitnamechallenge by far. Really interesting how the username @dbooster came into being. I see a lot of parallels with my early years in this autobiographical piece. I was a child of the 80's also, but instead of comic books, I was obsessed with 'games workshop' table top war games and painting the lead figures that went with them. Also, I was a massive DnD player and spent all my pocket money on rules books, and forgotten realms campaign books. Magic the gathering cards was another one, ha ha when I think about it, the 80's saw some very clever marketing people get very rich through thier understanding of adolescent boys need to collect things. Great article m8
