But all through the years I always perked up at the site of Fury making a cover appearance somewhere, and that alone would be enough for me to buy the book. The X-men was a personal favorite, so was the Punisher and others. From there I began collecting lots of books, not just ol' Nick. The rogueish eyepatch, the hi-tech gear and outfit, the great animated feel of a classic Steranko cover! What a way to begin a journey into a hobby that would consume a lot of my free time not to mention most of my limited financial funds.

Over the last 12 years I had largely gotten out of comic books, but as a young boy and all through my teens I was quite the comic book junkie. Welcome to my Nick Fury Fanpage, a little corner of my website devoted to my favorite comic book hero of all time. "You sleep safe in your beds because rough men stand ready in the night to visit violence on those who would do you harm." Currently, he is commander-in-chief of S.H.I.E.L.D., making sure when we go to sleep at night - we wake up in the land of the free." Added to the Quotes page and the Thumbnail pages.
