About a year ago, I took my sister and her five year old son to my LCS. As she carefully paged through the comics looking for something appropriate (admittedly, by her standards) for a five year old, I wistfully recalled my youth when almost all comics were appropriate for children and one had to actively seek out stuff like "Sabre". Even then, I was lucky when the guy would sell it to me without an adult present...

I began to know we were in trouble when ten year olds started presenting copies of JBNM for me to sign at cons. "Recommended for Mature Readers" on the cover had done nothing to prevent a whole lot of retailers selling the book to pre-teen kids.

Yeah, there was a lot comics for adults in Spain when i was 10 or 11 years old I bought them more than now, my grandfather even bought me this type of stuff.
I think when you are ten years old it's when you are more interested in "Recommended for Mature Readers" :-)

David:

I'm at work right now, but e-mail me at my home e-mail: srjedi@earthlink.net and I will find out what it costs to mail it (safely, of course) and will let you know.
