Where it all began

This week Major Spoilers celebrates its first birthday! Woohoo! While Major Spoilers may be one year old this week, my love of comics began way back 1981. We were on a family vacation - you know the kind of vacation where you pack everyone into a camper and travel the highways and byways of this great country seeing the sites. I believe it was the summer we did the old west tour of Deadwood, Yellowstone National Park, the Grand Tetons, and of course Frontier Days in Cheyenne. It was on one of the many gas/restroom breaks, that I spied a comic book on the magazine rack that not only had Superman on the cover, but Batman and Robin too. I begged my parents to spend a whole dollar to buy this 48-page special, and I spent the remainder of the trip reading and re-reading this issue trying to make sense of everything inside. So to celebrate Major Spoilers Birthday Week - I bring you our Retro Review of World’s Finest #271.
