Buying Batman Comics Turned Into Buying a Collection!

[@roywatson7916]

You can tell he loved his books in how they were kept. Great books.

[@MintHunterComics]

Love running into collections like these

[@jameshoward3527]

That was one of the best collections I have ever seen. Your truly blessed putting you hands on those.

[@MintHunterComics]

I appreciate that - you're so kind! this was a big win for sure

[@anjons7203]

Easily one of the best comic book related videos I have seen in a very very long time 5 out of 5!!!!!’

[@MarkDemeo]

It looks like some really great pick ups. I like what you said about it not just being about value, sometimes a certain issue or cover just grabs you.

[@MintHunterComics]

Amen dude - like some of my favorite comics are NOTHING issues - sometimes it's just for the cover - IM all over the place

[@MrAgentEcho]

12:08 Oh hey I have a 9.8 of that!

[@MintHunterComics]

Not a bad 9.8 to have!

[@SPalochik]

SWEET PICK-UP! You can't lose when you get decent books at a great price! Congrats James!

[@MintHunterComics]

You got that right Scott!

Nice Spidey cover with Venom and the sultry she symbiot. Wow that dude had his own comic shop in his house

[@MintHunterComics]

Hahaha he really did - and this was all barely a drop in the bucket!

[@TXBrutality]

Honestly, not a Batman fan at all but I can’t stop watching your videos! Keep up the good work. Show some of your key Spidey books in the future💪🏻🙌🏻

What an amazing deal. Long Boxes usually hold between 250 - 300 comics, I think I saw more than 10 long boxes? 2,500-3,000 comics? You might be traveling before the crack of dawn on Saturdays several times a year the next decade.

[@MintHunterComics]

he had 30 long boxes haha - we only got to look in 3 or 4!

[@chuckcarr9187]

Seemed like an awesome guy, great collector. I would live to give a look at his collection myself. Lol. I also own the first appearance of Banshi. I just picked up first prints of all 3 Issues of 3 Jokers at a local comic shop for cover price last weekend. They had a ton of them. I couldn't believe it. Great show. I'm jealous of the flea market finds. 😁

[@MintHunterComics]

It was a great collection! and I'm glad i've made a friend out of it - we're both trading a lot at the moment so we both had a good time

[@138NastyNate]

Wow what a collection. You can tell he loves those books by the way they have been taken care of. Absolutly beautiful collection. Im jealous that you got to see it LOL I wanna see it!!!

[@MintHunterComics]

Yes they were - I'm headed back at the end of the month

[@karlvallerand1004]

Crazy collection ! This guy must have been a time traveler , he has everything

[@MintHunterComics]

He had been collecting for 20-30 years!

[@migueljuan5374]

Most of the comic books I saw in that video are really in good condition. Props to him for taking such good care for his comics. Really enjoying seeing a lot of comic books that I'm not aware of. I only look mainly for some Iron Man comics.

[@MintHunterComics]

I know right? ironically (pun intended) i'm not the biggest Iron man dude so I'm always learning

[@migueljuan5374]

@@MintHunterComics still, the fact that some key characters for Batman are still affordable at less $10 or $20 means I still have hope to buy em now. So many Batman members that are affordable. For DC, Batman will always be my favorite since the animated JL/JLU series. That being said, I regret not getting Miracle Molly's first appearance.

[@interwebpsychiosis]

This guy gave you the deal of a lifetime. Unlike all the thieves on ebay, and whatnot (not everyone on whatnot). I can't believe some of the prices you got these books for. Wow he really blessed you, you're so lucky. Now it's your turn to bless a few people.

[@TheComicBookReport]

What an Amazing collection!!! Loved seeing his Flash run and his slabbed books. Thanks for sharing great video

[@MintHunterComics]

Thanks for watching!

[@joelatorre]

You picked up some awesome ones, congrats!Looks like it was worth the trip. What a great collection that was

[@MintHunterComics]

Thanks so much! I bet you like that 227! ugh I need it!

[@Tom8683-r2b]

I just picked up a copy of Batman/Superman #23 today at a small convention for $5.00s. It looks to be around 8.5-9.2 range I'm happy with it I'm a huge batman fan. I also picked up a New Wolverine 1 for $30, A Young Avengers 2nd vol number 1 for $20.00, but my big pick up was the 5th print of Edge Of The Spider-Verse 2 for $40.00.

[@MintHunterComics]

GREAT STEALS MAN!!

[@Tom8683-r2b]

@@MintHunterComics Thanks I was pretty happy lol. I also got either a 2nd print or reprint of Miles 2 appearance. It was part of a collection 1-3 pretty sure a reprint. www.ebay.com/itm/254881787030?hash=item3b58236c96:g:ezAAAOSwtBNgOY-V.

The 50 cent omega Red made me cuss outloud 😂

[@mikegonzalez503]

I went to two comic stores in a. City I was visiting this last weekend. Both have been picked clean. I feel I’m just not gonna find detective or Batman books from silver to Bronze Age easily anymore.

[@MintHunterComics]

It's tough to find anything anymore! but it's out there if you hustle! Wish it was like 5 years ago when you could find the death of jason todd in the $5 comic bins lol

[@ColsonsComics]

awesome collection I love those covers too. Huge huge fan of these kinds of videos where you show us your batman stuff its great every time. Your passion certainly comes out!!

[@MintHunterComics]

Thanks a bunch! my Bat collection is my baby lolol

[@CallenLowe]

Great haul! I too am a full run collector, filling holes is just as important as keys!

[@MintHunterComics]

Some of my fav comics every are nowhere near being keys! I agree

[@jmourgos55]

I had that Batman Aventures 12 also, bought off Heritage before it became hot. Sold for $300, still regret. It was at least a 9.8-9.9 - Great vid.

[@MintHunterComics]

I can't even imagine that only being a $300 book!

[@comicbookgallery4431]

That is cool, you were able buy some books. That guy has a great collection.

[@MintHunterComics]

He really did!

[@andrewcai5042]

Nice Jason Todd grails and Superman/Batman! Great Kilowog and Spawn covers. Nekron is cool!

[@MintHunterComics]

Nekron is AWESOME! so underrated !

[@TheIncredibleCJ]

Another Batman Run collector! 160-Current is like a dream for me dude! That really sucks that you had to break that up. I have 360-Current complete right now and like 40 issues under that but I'm in no rush. Lifetime goals. Great haul man!

[@MintHunterComics]

When you collect Batman you collect for the LONG haul haha

[@terraincognita3749]

Awesome video. Was wondering about your comment that you have a direct and newsstand of Batman 321. Direct did not start till issue 328. Unless it was a whitman variant and that issue is not listed as existing. Could you let me know more about the direct you have. Thanks

[@MintHunterComics]

Oop! sometimes I catch myself saying "Newsstand" vs direct but the reality is MOST comics from before 1984 were pretty much all Newsstands haha so it's not that special

Good lord, my brain is fried, I never saw so many good comic books in such a short amount of time! I have Star Wars #9 which is weird b/c I just started collecting a few months ago (it looks like it was missing from your new friend's collection). The free comics remind me of how at work I sometimes trade extra or unwanted baseball cards with a few people, unfortunately coronavirus put an end to that.

Some of these where you’re emphasizing that they’re newsstand like Batman 338 - nearly all issues were newsstand. Just thought that was interesting that you kept pointing to that.

[@MintHunterComics]

Yes yes I still point it out when it happens. A lot of them were from 83-88 where newstands were starting to become the lesser common copy. I even say in the video "they honestly mostly were newsstands at this time but it's still cool"
