FIRST EVER Experience At Ollie's! Let's Checkout These Mystery Comic Packs

[@dalemoyers8881]

There are a couple of Ollie’s close by me that I go to from time to time. I have gotten some good comics in the past, but mostly what they have at my location now are DC books in the five packs and the trade books. They used to have a 10 pack of Comics for only a dollar more than the five pack of comics. They stopped carrying those probably before Covid happened. 😢. Keep up the great work. 😎

I ❤ OLLIES!!!! I HAVE FOUND SO MANY BOOKS THERE ( OHC OMNIBUS & TPB ) -- I HAVE VENTURED TO SO MANY DIFFERENT STORES IN TEXAS, ARKANSAS, & LOUISIANA-- I HAVE FOUND DIFFERENT BOOKS @ DIFFERENT STORES!!!!

[@magnumrex]

Funny thing about US1, I remember it being in the old marvel 3-packs from the early 80s.

[@ComicBookCorner2.0]

OMG that is hilarious 🤣

[@RLDesrochers]

The mystery packs are fun and I've got some pretty cool stuff in them before. I mostly go for the trades and sometimes find pretty good deals. I remember they had all 3 Batman Eternal books for like $6 a piece.

[@ComicBookCorner2.0]

Yeah I think they did have Batman eternal there They also had a solid walking dead hardcover They did have injustice So next time I go and I'm in that area I will definitely pick up a few

[@giefaankim]

Wow I never knew Ollie's was loaded with comics like this! 🔥

[@ComicBookCorner2.0]

Now you know hopefully you can get to one.

[@samuelbankston2108]

Ollie's is cool. their mystery pack at my store was originally all 90s comics lol. But over the last year they've had other stuff in the mystery packs. Like back stock stuff. Really still not worth it But the tpb prices are great. Unfortunately my Ollie's has had the same stuff for two years. I got that walking dead trade #14 it's great.

[@dakoitcave817]

US 1 is super common. I see that book everywhere. It was a heavily printed 80s book like Psi Force, Strikeforce Morituri, Nth Man…etc.

[@kitescuriosities7717]

Not bad, my man. The thing with Ollie’s mystery bags is you have to really search through that stuff to find the good ones. But, you got some nice stuff. That Firestorm Nuclear Man #65 is a fairly nice little key issue. It’s the debut of the second version of Firestorm where the character Mikhail Arkadin fuses together with characters Ronnie Raymond and Martin Stein. Hope you enjoyed reading that one.👍

[@salmack8842]

I love Ollie's. Got a Batman #89 and #93 and YOV #3. I buy the ten packs all the time. My Ollie's has a huge selection and it takes me about twenty minutes to go thru the five packs and ten packs. Great job on the video.

[@ComicBookCorner2.0]

I appreciate that I wish that location had more packs.

[@jadecasssie]

Usually I don't go near the mystery pack for fear of getting played but sometimes you find some gems. I try to stick with the omnis and TPBs. Also their toys are discounted too so if you collect any like Marvel or DC figures sometimes you can get lucky

[@ComicBookCorner2.0]

When I go back I will probably get some trades they where great prices

[@Steve-gl4jr]

Shame we don’t have Ollie’s here in de UK

[@adamheisey5698]

I went to Ollies back in the early 2000’s and they had 10 comics for a reasonable price. But I haven’t been to Ollies in a year.

[@joshuaalvey]

Didn't know they put older comics in those bags. Thanks

[@ComicBookCorner2.0]

My pleasure Yeah that's why I decided to pick a few up because of the older books

[@MattAtBat]

I got Spectacular Spiderman #150 and #200 from my packs at Ollies!

[@ComicBookCorner2.0]

Oh wow that is awesome

[@darthken815]

@mattattack01 👍🏾

[@lifegood3322]

It really is a sickness! Now I've got to own Underworld #4! 😅 Entertaining as always!

[@ComicBookCorner2.0]

Lol Glad you had fun

[@michaelgallant1977]

Great video mike I've been to Ollie's few times you can get graphics novels for a cheap price once in awhile they'll have onibus for cheap too 👍

[@ComicBookCorner2.0]

Yeah I noticed that when I went there There was a couple things

[@donaldvonglitchenberger4108]

i’ve never been to Ollie’s but it seems like the closest thing to buying comics off a spinner rack in the 80s, even if the comics are mostly junk. looks like a fun experience

[@feridradoncic2237]

Cool store

[@googleearthguru6536]

The best I’ve ever gotten is 3 x-men 1 magneto covers. Vol 2 of course.

[@ComicBookCorner2.0]

Oh man that's pretty cool 😎

[@ryandrost9188]

I love going to Ollie's to browse their hardcover collected editions. I have gotten some amazing deals there on hardcovers to add to my collection. And yes, all of the stores are pretty much a wreck like that. I go in only to look at the hardcovers...and I might get a trade here and there, but their stickers are a pain to get off the trades, at least with the hardcovers they are usually wrapped, but if not the sticker is a bit easier to get off of it. I have heard of US 1, but only because I have a comic friend who absolutely loved that they made that title. There are definitely some weird titles that were made back then.

[@samuelbankston2108]

Same but my Ollie's rarely gets new stuff. Like years

[@samuelbankston2108]

I've also had them put stickers on their comic books. Man I hate that

[@ryandrost9188]

@@samuelbankston2108 Yeah, it can take a while for mine to get new stuff, so I usually only go there twice a year unless someone I know goes there and tells me they have new stuff in there.

[@realdeal-xf1ww]

Rough packs...Comics here in CA would never survive a store and be sold for $20/pk or $5 ea. comic on whatnot etc...sounds like the book section was untouched compared to the rest of the store...Still pretty cool bc its like christmas opening packs...

[@ComicBookCorner2.0]

Yeah it's fun you never know what you can get.

[@White_Tiger2169]

I remember those US 1 comics. Probably it was done when BJ and The Bear TV show was popular

[@kendallkidd20]

My Ollie’s had zero comics when last I went

[@ComicBookCorner2.0]

Oh man that really stinks Sorry to hear that

[@feridradoncic2237]

Cool 😎 comic packs 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️

[@sonic31century1]

I believe that Adventures Of Superman annual #1 is the first time Dan Jurgens drew Superman in a Superman comic.

[@ComicBookCorner2.0]

That's pretty cool I liked that cover.

[@christophermartin1315]

I think ollies is better for omnis or graphic novels. Their singles aren't that great unless you want random chaff.

[@joejunjulas7917]

Never been to Ollie's. Don't think they have them in the north east . I have opened comic packs at Wal-Mart though. Always a good time and fun!

[@collectingwithderrz]

I hit an Ollies when i go to my LCS every other weekend. Its definitely hit or miss. But been stocking up on my trades since they are so cheap haha. Keep it rocking & much ❤❤

[@ComicBookCorner2.0]

You can't go wrong with the price of those trades. I wish I had one closer.

[@BronzeAgeBryon]

If you want a rough Ollie's come over this way. Yours had a much better selection than our Ollies here. Most of the comic packs here are opened. FYI I made a video on my channel for our local store, but was asked to stop recording or leave the store. I had just finished when I was approached so I made the edit anyway. But I rarely go into the store anymore after that treatment.

[@ComicBookCorner2.0]

Oh man that sucks they asked you to leave.

[@jeremyjimenez1014]

How much for the Thor 467??

[@PatrickMysliwiec-xk5qr]

40 year old comics. “Man these books are rough” like lmao 😂😂😂

[@bottomtiercollector]

US 1 is definitely a ploy to make money off that old country song trucking and smokey and the bandit lolol

[@KDine0might]

There was a popular US 1 electric trucking toy slot car set by TYCO, I wonder if that comic was based off the toy like they did with some Hasbro products

[@ComicBookCorner2.0]

You know I could totally see the happening especially in the 80s good call 🤙

[@KDine0might]

​@@ComicBookCorner2.0 I recognized the logo right away, I have the main US-1 toy set and a bunch of the expansion tracks and cars still in storage under my house. My brother and I used to build tracks and raced the cars all over our yard. Makes me want to dig it out from storage again!

[@feridradoncic2237]

Hey buddy 👋😊😊😊😊😊😊

[@ChrisLovesYahweh]

Niiiiiiiiicccee bro

[@frankieno-nose8447]

I have a copy of US1 issue 1 in my PC lol

[@ComicBookCorner2.0]

LOL

[@brianng8350]

Never heard of Ollie’s. But I’ve never traveled across America looking for comic book stores. Comic boo stores seem like a dying breed similar to book stores or DVD stores. Not impressed with the mystery bags. I rather go for dollar bins or cheap trades. Yes, I had a few issues of US 1 as a kid. Not sure why I bought them… haha…. The series did not last very long. I think it lasted less than 10 issues?

[@ComicBookCorner2.0]

I can totally understand why. Never ever heard of that series You could tell by my reaction. Yeah next time I go there I probably would pick up some cheap hardcovers They are definitely recently priced

[@sebastianstark8517]

I've heard of "US1" and remember when it first came out. Had zero interest then, and even less now! LOL! Not my kind of book for sure. You pulled a few decent books. Nothing crazy, but probably some decent reads and good art. I rarely bought DC books as a kid, so for me, many of those are like new books, only better because I feel the stories and art were consistently better than what DC produces these days (WF not included). Thanks for sharing! Never been to Ollies myself.

[@ComicBookCorner2.0]

Lol you make a good point there So funny that you actually heard of US1 I was so dumbfounded when I found that comic

[@TheGardenarunner]

NO OLLIES IN CALI
