All those books by Erich von Daniken, including Chariots of the Gods. I actually read several of them (hey, I was in high school!) but I soon realized that the "evidence" he cited could as easily be explained in ways that didn't depend on alien visitors. Anyway, while this series sounds dated, it also sounds like fun. I'm glad you enjoyed it!Lark @ The Bookwyrm's Hoardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08639732368395025578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3952534890282357396.post-15308581138569571102017-05-30T12:43:02.470-07:002017-05-30T12:43:02.470-07:00This is awesome!

Maybe I'd absorb through knowing all my parents favorites of the time, just like I appreciate the Eagles, ELO and Fleetwood Mac because mom and dad listened to them so much, and even though I was little it sunk in. :) Never have been into comics, or graphic novels, but only because I never really investigated. I do see the appeal.

I've tried going back and watching some favorite TV shows from that era (my childhood) and they have been painful to watch (the original Battlestar Galactica-ugh!). I'm guessing comics, being more visual and dialogue based, would bring on the cringe like the TV. Glad you are made of sterner stuff and could see through the goofiness to the good stuff!Rudejasperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08262824398753157757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3952534890282357396.post-47854558425100524322017-05-29T16:50:42.482-07:002017-05-29T16:50:42.482-07:00wow this is quite the find huh.
