As this blog approached its fiftieth post, this simple list was already becoming unwieldy, so I broke it into three (later four, and then five) separate pages:
- Captain America vol. 1 (including Tales of Suspense)
- Avengers vol. 1
- Invaders (all volumes)
- Other Captain America ongoing or limited series (NEW)
- Miscellaneous comics (both in dedicated posts and in Cap and Avengers posts)
More will be added as I get to later volumes (no time soon, though). I also plan on adding a chronological index (much sooner, I hope).
This exercise reminds me of these great panels from the first page of S.H.I.E.L.D. #1 (February 2015) by Mark Waid and Carlos Pacheco, showing fellow “Ohio urchin,” li’l Phil Coulson, enjoying his comics and heroes as only hyperorganized fans like he, Waid, and I would do.
Yes, I had a card catalog system for my comics, with separate files by issue, story, and date, plus a massive three-ring binder with pages for every hero and each comic I owned in which they appeared. (All lost to the ravages of time, unfortunately.)
