How did you first discover your favorite character(s)?

Another one that i like is Ghost Rider but can't remember how i discovered him and it was'nt the nick cage movie.

Incredible Hulk...

I was introduced to the Hulk through the late 70's TV show...lil' ICON used to watch it every Friday night as the show came on at 7pm (followed by Dukes of Hazzard at 8 and bedtime by 9). CLASSIC memories.

Became a lifelong Hulk fan after that.

The first comic I ever read was Silver Surfer vol. 3, #81 in 98, which made me a fan of the Tyrant. Two years later, I read Apocalypse: The Twelve, which got me into the X-Men, Mr Sinister, and Apoc.

man, i feel old hearing about when you discovered them.. i was already a teenager

At least you discovered popular characters. Could you imagine what it was like being an Ironfist fan in the 80's and 90's? Even Nova at least was a New Warrior. Thank God for Fraction and Brubaker!
