Ah, five years of Venture already.

I first saw it when I was either 10 or 11. My first episode was either "Ice Station Impossible!", "The Incredible Mr. Brisby" or "Return to Spider-Skull Island". Either way, even when I was 10 and I could comprehend the sheer genius behind the re-engineering of the "Fantastic Four" concept (Ice Station...), I knew this show was a step above most cable TV.

I followed on-off for years, having only seen the first half of Season 2 and a few episodes from Season 3. It wasn't until this summer when I had nothing better to do and decided to record the daily re-runs on my DVR. I instantly became hooked, and in my older years, was able to appreciate this show on a much deeper and emotional level.

I only discovered this site the day before "Perchance to Dean" was to air, ecstatic at the fact that not only was there a site other than the wiki for hardcore Venture fans, but that "VB" was going to reference my favorite prog-rock band of all time.

Thanks, Mantis Eye.
