My Digital Pal Who Is Fun To Be With: Tom Breevort

Welcome to I'm So Glad My Suffering Amuses You.

It's a strange little place, this ol' blog o' mine! 

Posts about TV shows and movies and politics and whatever nonsense goes on in my life. 

I really appreciate you dropping by but...

Why?

Have you used up the internet?  

Have you given up all hope to be entertained or educated or just distracted for a few short moments? 

Acting on the assumption you are regretting this decision or unfortunate happenstance that has brought you to this place, allow me to introduce you to a semi-regular feature I call...

My Digital Pal Who Is Fun To Be With

My Digital Pal Who Is Fun To Be With is...   The Tom Breevort Experience.  

Tom Brevoort works for Marvel Comics where he serves as Executive Editor and Senior Vice President of Publishing. and in his "spare" time is theX-Men Group Editor.

And he has a blog.

On this blog, he posts each weekend about comics, especially books he purchased during the 1970's including titles I read back when I was a much younger Dave-El. 

Both Tom and I have the mutual experience of slogging through DC Comics' output during the nadir of the DC Implosion.

It was a challenging time to be a DC fan.

Tom posts installments from the infamous and very hard to find Cancelled Comics Calvacade featuring material that was pulled from the publishing schedule in the aftermath of the DC Implosion.

Cancelled Comics Calvacade was printed off a Xerox machine and about 3 dozen issues were produced of the two issues.

And we have a shared history with the Marvel titles that came out in this same time period.

Such as peak X-Men by Chris Claremont, John Byrne and Terry Austin.

And he posted about the first issue of Avengers I ever bought.

There are also posts about comics from the Golden Age.

Tom is also a Doctor Who fan and posts whenever there are new episodes. (Just like me!) 

I really enjoy The Tom Breevort Experience and I genuinely enjoy seeing his new posts each Saturday and Sunday.   

Tom is my digital pal who is fun to be with.
