You can get some really awesome dc silver age for cheap that just doesnt get enough love!
@lukeyznaga76275 ай бұрын
yeah, DC has a lot of great comic books. and Usually, [ usually? ] they are cheaper priced than the Marvel Keys. For some reason Superman comics are real cheaper to collect. So are the DC Comics Presents and some Batman /superman family.

I also think you would have a great time sharing and talking with Higgy Pop's comics. I invited some of them to check out your videos.

All the comics in that thumb (including the old catalog) are awesome... All great covers/issues. Classic stuff. EDIT: Oh I thought that Dave Stevens issue was a catalog.

Thank you! I'm really enjoying just getting some random classic books in and filling some holes in my collection! These covers always get me!

Do you use Milar bags exclusively or only for certain books, and how does cost play into your choice, if at all?
@ConlinsComics4 ай бұрын
If I plan for it to stay in the PC, than it's mylar and fullbacks. I like the protection and how they present but my ocd also wants them to be uniform in my shortboxes. While I still have a couple new runs I collect coming out each week, the bulk of my collecting is tracking down older back issues and relative to some, there's not too many books coming in week to week. I don't take the cost consideration in too much, but when I do buy my bags and boards I try to find sellers that offer some discount if you buy in bulk, and that way I'm stocked up for awhile. If I was selling I would consider the cost more, but for me I just enjoy having my books look and present great.

Strange Adventures is such a great run. 217 is one of my top favorite covers ever!

Im starting to see that. There are some really amazing covers in this run!

Challengers 81 was a continuation of the Silver Age book. In the 70s DC brought back books that were previously cancelled like Aquaman, Teen Titans, and Challengers and kept the numbering from the earlier runs.

That makes alot more sense, thank you!

You can use some of those cool silver-age books to buy the bigger keys. I get a lot of my nicer books from making trades at my LCS.
@mattcarper98539 ай бұрын
I need that Planet Comics in my life..... I had a choice between it, or Airboy 5. I chose the Airboy.
@ConlinsComics9 ай бұрын
It is beautiful. I think one of the others id love to add is the elvira cover dave stevens did
@lukeyznaga76275 ай бұрын
when I am at a LCS, I, too, get sidetracked by great comic books and their covers. I try to be disciplined for my "holes to fill" and "plan" but it isn't easy. I can't buy the whole world.

actually, hulk 142 is a key in "certain circles" of uh, liberal geeks. To a FEW, only a few, its a key due to the intense political activism speech and statements Valkyrie makes in her fight and adventure with Hulk. Its kind of a weird story, but a bit funny, a parody of politics feminism of "those days". Seriously. It is the only time that kind of theme pops up in ANY Hulk comic book.
