I liked Doctor Who before you did...just sayin'

These comics are from the mid eighties. I wonder if they're worth anything.

    Mid-eighties? In that case, you've liked Doctor Who longer than I've been alive.

    You only need to have LIKED the old series to have liked it longer than me, I wasn't even born before they closed it down. I saw the movie in 1996 though, and then went on to see episodes my mom taped off PBS

    I could never find those in my town, but my comic purchases back then came from the local grocery store.

    And when I did discover "the comic book shop", they never had any Who.

    I was relegated to catching marathons during PBS telethons. Who's with me!!?

    @regularguy5mb PBS reruns FTW! I watched most of McCoy that way. and with bits and pieces of Baker and Davison too.

    Well being an old man I can definately say I liked Dr Who before you. I can remember hiding behind the sofa when I was a dis watching Jon Pertwee battling daleks on a Saturday night when they were first broadcast.

    Thanks for reminding me of that. I feel really old now!!

    Wow, I didn't know that they showed Doctor Who on American TV back then . . .
    They'd probably be worth a bit, but even more if you hold onto them for a couple of decades :) Depends how much the departure of The Tennant drives up ebay prices :)
