A Brand New Comics Fan
As of 1:30 on the morning of Friday, July 26th, I became a Grandmother for the first time. My oldest daughter had a baby boy. and...naturally, he is stunningly beautiful.
Naturally.
To paraphrase Garrison Keillor, Windsor Locks, CT...where all the children are above average.
And although my son-in-law is a baseball fan, I will be doing my very best to introduce him to comics. Get them hooked at a young age, I say. It worked with my kids, and hopefully, we'll be working on the next generation now. I'll be saving my Lil' Gothams, and Superman Family books, and will of course, be buying him a Green Lantern Onsie, as soon as I find one. I'll wait a little while before introducing him to some of my other books...we don't want to frighten him.
Gosh...I'm a Grandmother. I'm having just a little bit of trouble dealing with this. I'm...OLD!
But still feisty.

Yay! Hope he likes his onsie, and congrats!
There are blocks? Great Guardians!
Congrats on the new addition to the family! I've been noticing more family friendly things for babies including comic based toys for tots so there's a lot of good things to introduce him to!
I now realize I should have worded that a little better.

This is great news. Does this make you Ma Hunkel? Will you dress up in a cape and a cook pot and fight crime for the grandchild's amuseme- er, I mean, inspiration?
Ted, it's ok.
Calvin...you are a genius! I even have the perfect pot! No longjohns, but I am sure I can find something.
And thank you Googam and Erin!
I am simply bursting with pride!
Congratulations!!! :) And welcome to the newest little Lantern.
Congratulations, Sally, I hope you enjoy grandmothering, I'm sure you'll be great at it.
Thank you Dermie and James. This whole grandmothering thing has me a bit flummoxed, for sure.
But what a coup for DC and Marvel! Crazy Grandmother reads Comics!
