Basically the title... I just want to know what got you to appreciate DC (or comics more broadly) and, **perhaps more importantly**, how long have you been a fan?
For me, in 1988, I was 3 and my Dad introduced me to reruns of Super Friends. He bought me a super powers Batman figure and would draw me pen-and-ink drawings of DC heroes (he went to art school). Dad made me a Batman cape out of an old tanktop shirt he had... I wore it everywhere. THEN, Batman 89 came out and my parents took me to the theater... IT cemented a lifelong love of Batman... and by extension DC. 1990 rolls around and Dad showed me RICHARD DONNER'S SUPERMAN. And I began a lifelong love for both Superman and Christopher Reeve! I still think he is the best superhero portrayal on film.
When I was 5, he took me to the comic book store for the first time and swept up some Silver and Bronze Age Flash, and these B&W promo reprints of Golden Age Batman from the UK (a tie-in to the '89 movie) and a hardcover of The Greatest Superman Stories Ever Told.
My DC exposure led me to Marvel and comics in general. I am now an obsessed fan. #video #movies source
