Ralph Snart

Some of you may not know who, or what, Ralph Snart is.

These sites should help. Figured I would let those of you who don't know me very well in on the secret. Oh, did I mention I have an autographed beer stein with Ralph Snart on it? Yeah, I really am that lame.

Marc Hansen used to have all his past Snart stuff online to read, but unfortunately, he struck a deal to re-publish some of this stuff in hard copy, to which the publishers replied, "well, take down the online stuff and you got a deal".

And how did I come across this frightening hobby? My father's friend, with a son about my age, introduced me to Ralph Snart in 1988. That's right, about fourth grade or so. I told everyone about it and became the most annoying little jerk in elementary school. That label kinda stuck until college, by the way...anyway, I still have every Snart volume one could have purchased up through the mid-1990's, sealed in bags and backboards up in my parent's attic. It's about time I go up there and become even MORE lame by reading through all of them, in hard copy, once again. See you in about three weeks.
