When you discussed of first appearance of a character in comics, I was under the impression that showing up in a comic is the first appearance. No question asked. Now it’s very technical. How about for example in Ms. Marvel and Gwenpool? Just cover appearances. That’s the medium. Thank you for your content.

@@KimNguyen-zm7gi Nowadays they make it really confusing. There are cameo appearances, preview appearances, ad appearances, and full appearances. Also there's in continuity vs elseworlds. At the end of the day it seems like the market decides which one they like.

I hope the "buyer's market" continues for the Heritage Silver age auction tomorrow LOL. I am at the point where I refuse to pay higher than the last sale price, or last lowest price in the last 3 years. Whatever outcome would be better for me. 😉 That PEP Comics cover was very cool and did not look like a 1.8. So funny they gave that a blue label, I have a restored book that has the exact same comment (and no other comments), and it's marked restored. It was graded a long time ago though. I wish they had a standard that was 100% the same across the board. Wow, that Police Cases was an out right super deal that buyer got! Love the first appearance of Starman! As a child, we always joked that Ted Knight became a newsman after he retired (see old episodes of the Mary Tyler Moore TV Show to get the joke). Poor Catman.. he never got the same love as Batman. Little kids were more excited and spooked by bats I guess. Enjoyed the show as always!

Thanks for answering my question. I think I would agree with your assessment of the EC revival. I'm still in, for the most part because I do enjoy horror comics. I'm finding Creepshow to be the better of the two. It's best to read the new EC titles but not really think of them as EC.

Here’s another one for Dave Stevens fans - he did a spectacular cover (of an exotic dancer, acting as an artist’s model for Dave) for issue 117 of The Comics Journal, cover-dated September 1987. I’ve been paying a lot of attention to TCJ listings on eBay lately, which is how it came to my attention. I just now checked “sold” listings for it, and good-looking copies have commanded $175 to $200 the past few months. Definitely an issue to watch for if you come across a bunch of TCJ someplace.

Golly, I am the wrong person for this type of video. I don't "spec" at all. I just buy what I want and like (except maybe the Ferret). I remember buying the Who's Who issues off the rack, but only but the one's with the characters I liked in it. Love Family guy, and American Dad; but wouldn't buy the comics. Did buy Chucky 1 and 2 for my daughter though, she really loves that freaky doll, I will tell her to hang on to them. I agree with the nostalgia angle. Would not turn down a Wild Wild West comic LOL (different generation for sure). Only book I ever bought of the other of the 10 was the Wizard. And, you are correct. Never thought to treat it like a comic.

Hi Allen. I recently picked up an All Star 8 4.5 restored C 1 for about 24k. I use a very good restoration/conservation service to invest and conserve many of my books. I’m thinking I could remove the restoration and get a 3.0/3.5 universal or I could remove restoration and “conserve” the book to get a 4.5 to up to 6.0 conserved grade. Which option for this book do you think would create the most value including doing nothing short and long term?

I got a dream question as we all daydream wondering about what if! If you could be any character hero or villain from Marvel Comics? and DC Comics who you would be and why? how would you use your Powers in today's lifestyle? makes you wonder as most of us that have read comics over the years from childhood, knowing what most of these big-name characters that have done wrong to right from right to wrong and stepping into their shoes & boots would you think you could do better or serve the same mistake as they have made, is the meaning behind everything 🤔! We've all thought these questions can't Denie that.

In opposite to this weeks question, are there any comics that are highly valuable today that you strongly feel are going to have an immense drop in value in the future? Are there any highly valuable comics you feel are in danger of one day becoming literally worthless?
