Using GI JOE ARAH (IDW) Andy gripes about a first appearance in a recent issue (#281) that has created a bit of a price bump in that one issue that he missed so we discuss hot recent first appearance issues.

Released in 1972, it reached No. 6 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the US.
In 2013, it was ranked No. 13 in Rolling Stone′s “Best Summer Songs of All Time”. [That’s high.]
