Anyone around here into old Nintendo books and comics? Really liked these when I was a kid even though they're pretty goofy and dumb.
Anyway, took some time the other day to scan in Super Mario Bros. No. 1 - always loved the cover art on this one. This is literally the first thing I have ever scanned so hopefully it's not ass. I didn't do any post-processing but I did upload a light pdf and the original pages as png if anyone is interested.

My copy is pretty clean but not pristine. Still, there are some blemishes in the art itself probably due to the age and budget and stuff so this is a pretty good representation of how a new copy of this looked. All of the panel outlines are hand-drawn lines and the boxes themselves are not always straight or aligned to the page borders making some of the panels appear slightly crooked on the page. The colors themselves must have been printed in different phases because they don't always totally align which makes some of the art look a little weird. You wouldn't notice this unless you zoomed-in pretty far, though, so it's not like the book is unreadable. It is clearly a product of it's time.
I have a sizable collection of comics and books which I would like to scan for my own collection and I'll share if there's interest. Just trying to give back something here - I'm always digitally hoarding this shit myself when I find it.

I remember getting this from Toys R Us. I must've read it thousands of times to the point of memorization. Even my cousins were obsessed with it,

I kinda remember being intrigued (bothered? scared?) by how Mario was left alone at the end of the Bedtime for Drain-head comic.
I had to look up the name of the comic but couldn't immediately find scans to share the scene. It is on Vimeo in the forum of a narrated comic, though.

My bro and I found a couple issues of Valiant's Legend of Zelda series in a clearance magazine table at Target back in the mid-90s. We reread those comics over and over again, and probably had an easier time understanding how the Triforce was split between Ganon Zelda and Link in OoT because of it.
