Something witty yet inspirational about the Cleveland Indians

Yes. After Stan Lee it's the definitive Spider-Man as far as I'm concerned.

I can only imagine what it must have been like to read Marvel in the 80s. What an incredible collection of runs on so many characters.

It was glorious. Stern and Mantlo on Spider-Man, Stern on Avengers, Simonson on Thor, Byrne on FF, Micheline and Layton on Iron Man, classic Claremont on X-Men, Miller on Daredevil.. Hell, even the outright crassly commercial Secret Wars was stupid fun. They took chances on weird concepts (Generic Comic Book, Fumetti Special, No Prize Book, Asst Editors Month) and awesome properties (Transformers, GI Joe, A-Team, Micronauts), and even did kid's comics right (Star!). Shooter may have been a douche at times, but man did he know how to run that company.

And Spider-man was just fantastic... even when DeFalco took over...
