Do you remember the special editions and variants that Wizard used to offer? I got a lot of ace editions and "limited" copies that were autographed by the artists. There also used to be a monthly comic-book catalog that was put out by American Entertainment, a company that was (I believe, don't quote me) started by a college student at the time. They always had cool discounts and would give out free comics if you ordered such and such amount.

Took it for granted at the time, as both of them are now-defunct institutions. Especially with Wizard. Kind of thought they'd be around forever.
