4714ArticleHoju KoolanderGreat read. I wrote an article from the male perspective of a fat kid during this same era a few years back, so it was interesting to read your experiences. Thanks for adding your voice to the site. Dec 15, 2018View
4749ArticleHoju KoolanderYou had good taste in the 90s. I totally had that clear model of YakBak and used it in my imaginary secret agent adventures as an all purpose device of deception. Glad you eventually got your GameBoy. I learned early on that if I could wait a year or two I would often find my most desired toys at garage sales for cheap and end up with more than if I had begged for them when new. A habit I continue with to this day.A Christmas wishlist of the '90sDec 20, 2018View
4754ArticleHoju Koolander@OldSchool80s My pleasure! @Towtrucktom That is the mission statement of the site, so I'm glad I could be a part of that special moment of nostalgia. @Vaporman87 Mandrell still sounds like a Star Trek villain to me.5 More 80s Christmas CommercialsDec 21, 2018View
4778ArticleHoju Koolander@Vaporman87 Oh, HGTV is all my wife watches in hotel rooms when we're on vacation. This is my passive aggressive retaliation. @jkatz Now you've got me adding one more item to my wish list. This must happen.My Super Mario Bros BathroomJan 06, 2019View
4805ArticleHoju KoolanderWow, the generational angle of this article is unbelievable. I totally relate to being a poser, but I never even got my Nash board moving, something was wrong with the wheels and without an awesome older neighbor guru to get them rolling I just moved on to comics and action figures. My favorite part of the story is your crush's awesome brother showing up out of nowhere as the God of the ollie, so fun.Skate or Die GenerationJan 15, 2019View

4848ArticleHoju KoolanderThis was great! Those Super Friends valentines had some deep cut characters like Plastic Man. Plus that spinning leg Flash was hilarious. I also dug seeing those Old Spice bottles and cologne cars, my Dad had plenty of those too.Vanished Valentine's Feb 12, 2019View
4882ArticleHoju KoolanderI was a big Wizard reader and subscriber from issue 7 on, so this article was right up my alley. I actually got a Grendel 1/2 comic as a birthday present one year from a cheapskate classmate just passing along his Wizard insert. I do have to disagree with your claim that the magazine showed favoritism toward Marvel and DC though. Especially in the early days the staff acted like the books from Image and Valiant were the pinnacle of graphic storytelling along with other indie books like Shi, Bone, Hellboy and Lady Death. It was only after the early 90s boom ended and the "Big Two" were back to being the main providers of comics to the mainstream that they got more coverage. At least that was my experience.Five Best Wizard Magazine freebiesMar 09, 2019View
4899ArticleHoju Koolander@jkatz What, you don't think kids are getting a decent education from all their apps? Yeah, me neither. @Benjanime Yeah, I have a few issues of Nintendo Power with retro celebrities like Wil Wheaton and Michael Dorn from Star Trek: The Next Generation, New Kids On The Block and then some totally forgotten performers like The Jets.Mickey Mouse Magazine 1988Mar 29, 2019View
4910ArticleHoju Koolander@vkimo Yeah, Shelley Long can be an acquired taste, but her character in Troop Beverly Hills is a total 180 from Diane on Cheers. Much kinder and goofier, less self-seriousness.10 Best Cameos In Troop Beverly HillsApr 18, 2019View
