1013ArticleBenjanimebeing the nintendork i am, i'd totally go for the zelda ones! Feb 19, 2014View
995ArticleVaporman87That would really throw me for a loop... having the main characters killed off halfway through. But that leaves me wondering what the second half of the book focused on??? Don't fear handing out the spoilers... give us the scoop! :) Thanks again Miss M!For the Love of V-Day! Part 3Feb 10, 2014View
1003ArticleIllustratorErikI can't think of any Valentine's Day books I've read before, but I have a warm fuzzy side of myself that enjoys classic romantic movies like Casablanca, Roman Holiday or Patch of Blue. Then again, none of these movies have the main couple actually get together in the end, so many thats why I relate to them so much. For the Love of V-Day! Part 3Feb 17, 2014View
1010ArticleMissMWell Vaporman, with one of the main characters killed off half way through, the other half really focused on the other "main" character and trying to solve the mystery of who was killing everyone. It was certainly a different kind of departure from what I had been reading at the time. And Erik, this was really the only Valentine's Day book I recall reading when I was younger. And I'm not exactly sure this would really count, aside from it taking place around Valentine's Day. lol And I know what you mean about stories where the main couple doesn't end up getting together. I relate to that and in some ways I enjoy that being an ending because there is the happiness that the two people love each other, but then there is the gut wrenching sadness that they won't be together. It makes for epic story telling. Sometimes. Other times a girl can only dream that a happily ever after is in the cards. For the Love of V-Day! Part 3Feb 18, 2014View
978ArticleVaporman87You can definitely tell some of these V-day card images are taken straight out of Jim Lee's work with the X-Men. Great stuff! These would have fit right in with my choices for Valentine's Day card exchanges in school. Anything to do with super heroes and such (as I mentioned in the first part of this series). One thing I would have really enjoyed was if there were some Godzilla related Valentine's Day cards. In fact... I'm going to go look that up right now. :) Thanks again Miss M!!!For the Love of V-Day!

983ArticlepikachuloverMy friend used to have a huge crush on Gambit. I don't think I would have given X-Men cards in 1993. I usually went for something boys and girls would like. I think in 93 I either gave Tiny Toons or Marsupilami.For the Love of V-Day! Part 2Feb 07, 2014View
990ArticleMissMpikachulover, I remember getting some Tiny Toons valentine cards. I loved them so much. I really miss Tiny Toons. That was such a great show. Now Marsupilami sounds interesting, I'm not really recalling it. Vaporman, yeah, these images are totally from Jim Lee's art in the comics. lol How did the search go for any Godzilla Valentine's Day cards? I'm sure they had to have had them. For the Love of V-Day!

992ArticleThe Trash ManGodzilla-themed Valentine's do exist. I remember stumbling upon a box of them at a dollar-store back when I lived in L.A [this was, uh, 2005/2006?]. I have no idea what happened to them, but there was also a sheet of stickers included that I used to "decorate" my name-badge at work. Moth-ah-raaaa..!For the Love of V-Day! Part 2Feb 10, 2014View
993ArticleVaporman87Awesome Trash Man. I must look these up.For the Love of V-Day! Part 2Feb 10, 2014View
1002ArticleIllustratorErikI remember I found a set of Animated Series X-Men Valentines at a Goodwill store once. Whats weird is that the cards only had picture of the characters posing, no message or hearts or anything, just a basic "To: and From:" on the back. I'm almost certain that the art was recycled from some trading card game. However, that made it easier to paste all the cards onto a board to make a sort of makeshift poster for my room.
