  2. Again, action-packed and colorful covers. Never read these, but liked the TV series.

  3. Dang, FCJ. You really had those lyrics memorized? I like them better than the song, which was over the top on the Funkmeter.

  5. I watched reruns of the Cisco Kid movies in the late 50's, but have no memory of the TV show. And did not realize there were comics. How cool.
