Title: Hi Everyone
Post by: Mr D on 13 January, 2004, 11:44:13 PM
Hello! I'm new to the board, but I've been reading it for the last 3 or 4 months, and been getting tooth regularly for 6 or 7 (now a subber). I first found tooth way back in 95 or so when I was 10 (I'm 19 this Friday) and a friend of mine showed me.

I forget exactly what prog it was, but it had the fatty games in I think. I've never really bothered to come here much, but I'm on a year out before uni to try and earn money (kind of hard when you have no job) and I'm online a lot, so I thought it was worth it!! A few people mentioning eBay has caused me to dabble a bit.

That's about it! I know most of you from reading your posts here, and you're mostly a fine body of people! Glad to be among you... please don't hurt me...

I've actually got a few already, but I'm hoping to fill in all the missing pieces! Not much money as I'm unemployed, but a few every now and again is good. Email me with what you have for sale and I'll look it over!

Hello Dribles, I started reading in the early 90's and coming here about 6 months ago and find this is a top place. 10 in 95 god that makes me feel old I'd been working full time for about 3 years then...oh yeah I post at strange times due to living in OZ..

welcome to the board, from an occasional posting 2k fan of many years.

and Mr C's wise advice re ebay, that way lies over-priced comic collections, restraint is required.

Hi.  No religion threads- alright?  Unless you want to start a new religion and feel like promoting it...

Can I be Grand Wizard if you do?

Hello, fresh meat.

I am the Trout, mighty mutant piscine ruler of the board.

Soon, all will be my zombie slaves, but until then I will allow you to read comics.

I bid you welcome, although I dislike you already.

Heya Krestal,

I was Born in England Moved here in 83 at age 7 and grew up on the central coast of NSW (couple of hours north of sydney). I now live in the Sydney metro area.

How did you get into Tooth? It's not too popular r prolific here. part of the reason I first got into it was due to some sort of loyalty to England.

it's odd but you can get 2000ad from almost any newsies over here, they usually only have 4 or 5 copies but all have em. Got into tooth when I picked one up round a mates place after a big night, instantly addicted started collecting from there on(early 90's)at the grand old age of 18, which I guess is concidered quite old to start getting into comics.
