We pulled boxes of comics out of the attic (The Great Attic Cleaning Of '06) and I have to say...I had weird taste in comics back in the day.
They were all, of course, Marvel--I was entirely too cool for DC. That was the company for old ladies, you know. (it *was* the 70's) DC had that big flying boy scout, and that fucked up weirdo in the batsuit.

Me, I had Deathlok, Morbius, Guardians of The Galaxy, Killraven, and Dr. Strange, Iron Fist, Dracula, and Luke Cage (the first Black hero! Oy, bad, but I loved it!) Oh, and Master Of Kung Fu, god, I loved that book!

X-men, of course, and Alpha Flight, (NorthStar, I knew you were gay, even back then. Boy, did they ever fuck with you, poor thing)

So, here’s the challenge---have you ever heard of *any* of these books? ‘Cause the comic guy laughed when I told him what I had. *grin*
The one common factor in almost all of these books? Slash, slash, slash—at least in my young and fevered mind.

I’m writing, I swear! Really!

And by the way, thanks [livejournal.com profile] teot, for making me realize Deal needed more unhealthy sex! You’re a great source of inspiration for me!

I'm too young in comicdom and in general to know any of these titles, but I just wanted to check in with my joy that slash was alive and well before I was born. ^--^

Brex was your first OTP? That's a pretty awesome first OTP. I think mine was either Hiei/Kurama or Sora/Yolei from Yu Yu Hakusho and Digimon respectively.

oh, I should clarify--Brex was my first writing OTP. my very first OTP was the same one everyone my age had--Spock/Kirk, Star Trek!

*be all confused by the younger generation* Yu Yu Hakusho?

SPOCK/KIRK!! You are totally my slashdom sempai. You guys helped CREATE the term slash!

Both are Japanese Anime. Yu Yu Hakusho is about these pretty boy spirit detectives, and Hiei and Kurama are very much in love demons. I mock the incoming group that watched the American version first with the horrible voices and deny the slashy implications.

Mine too! The very first slash I ever read was K/S back in the day. :)
