I was actually looking through some cabinets the other day and came across a complete set of the first 12 issue "Marvel Secret Wars," where the alien symbiote costume was first introduced. (I think it was shown there even before it was in the Spiderman comic book, in 1984 or 5.) Sat down and read them for the first time in what must be close to 20 years. To get the whole Outsider backstory involved would be a leeetle bit complicated. To say nothing of Galactus, Dr. Doom, Molecule Man, etc., etc.
I don't even remember buying them. I was never really a huge comic book fan, what little I know was usually picked up from friends who were.
