This just popped into my head the other day. I was wondering what comics came out the month I was born - August 1982. I was also curious if any of them were worthwhile. Here's what I found:

Marvel

Daredevil #185 - one of Frank Miller's Daredevils, but nothing special happened.
Fantastic Four #245 - one of Byrne's issues. Nothing special.
Uncanny X-Men #160 - first appearance of S'ym

DC

Batman #350 - Nothing special.
Green Lantern vol. 2 #155 - Nothing special, but a really cool cover.
Tales of the New Teen Titans #3 - origin of Changeling/Beast Boy.
Night Force #1
Legion of Super-Heroes #290 - Cool cover. Darkseid is behind the scenes.


So how about you all? Hopefully someone else has cooler comics in the birth month than I did!

For once being older is going to help me. There were at least 6 books that weren't published in my month. So the every other month thing was going on for Aquaman, Jimmy Olsen, Showcase, Green Lantern, and Daredevil. It's a shame because Daredevil #7 is the first red costume. Except for Brave and the Bold, the following books are each over $1000.

Marvel
Avengers #16 - 1st new lineup
Tales of Suspense #65 - 1st Silver Age Red Skull
Uncanny X-men #11 - 1st Stranger

DC
Batman #171 - 1st Silver Age Riddler
Brave and the Bold #59 - Featured Batman and Green Lantern

Seems appropriate that the DC theme for my month is Batman.
