The Grooviest Covers of All Time: Groove's Favorite Covers from May 1972

Forty-five years ago this month, Groove-ophiles! Lessee...The Godfather was still ruling the box office...All In the Family was ruling the boob tube...and Roberta Flack ruled the radio with "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face." Best of all, at least for Young Groove, third grade was almost over and summer was on the way! What comics did I beat the heat with? Funny you should ask...

This one was my mom's. I swear!

Yeah, these covers grabbed Young Groove (and the insides of most of 'em were pretty far-out, too). There were lots more, and you can view 'em here on Mike's Amazing World of Comics!

Christmas 2016: Covering Christmas Memories from 1969-1973

Merry Christmas, Groove-ophiles! Today Ol' Groove is gonna truck on down the Memory Lane of Christmas' past--and I hope you'll enjoy the trip! The following covers are of comics Li'l Groove pulled fresh off the spinner-rack around Christmas time between the ages of 6 and 10 (1969-1973). Some of these comics in and of themselves may not actually be all that outstanding--at least not to you--but to moi? These covers (in no particular order) have some warm and wonderful memories attached. Trips to the store with Dear Ol' Dad. Stopping by the King Kwik after practicing for the Christmas play. Comics to read on the way to visit family. Comics read in the backseat of the car while on one of those Christmas shopping sprees with Dear Ol' Mom. Comics I read at bedtime on Christmas Eve in an effort to get sleepy enough so Santa could slip in and leave all those cool presents. Perhaps some of these comics will bring back some special childhood memories for you, too...

Enjoy your holiday (and/or your weekend), Groove-ophiles! Peace, joy, and love to you all!
