Owner's Description

Issue #2 was my introduction to the Sentinels. After an amazing first issue we are rewarded with another great comic book. This book came out in April of 1983. I have yet to start collecting comic books, even though I was already buying them. Mostly, they were books from the 3 for a $1 rack. These "3-4-$1" books were purchased at a shop on Bustleton ave in the "Far" Northeast section of Philadelphia. The shop was called Comic Investments. Eventually this store would move and another would rise from its ashes called ComiCards. Eventually that store would get my weekly allowance, if not my dinner money. I scrounged around for many of the issues before issue 15, but unfortunately I do not know where I purchased all of them. I must figure they were either purchased on Bustleton ave, or maybe Fat Jack's, my current LCS.

The cover is dynamic, showing four members of the team. Sunspot seems ready to attack although out of reach, Shan's mental abilities are far from useful, but could she be telling Sam to hurl himself at the metal monstrosities.

These early issues showed the team grow. They were characters that were not much older than me. It is amazing how now, I am so much older than them.

This was also signed by Bob Mcleod on the same day I had issue #1 signed, 8/20/11
