INSANE Collector Sells Over $60,000 in Raw & Graded Key Issue Comic Books!

[@ScottTerryComedy]

People don't realize how hard that ASM 301 9.8 is to get. Great stuff

[@NicholasOsella]

And, great Long video featuring an awesome collection. This guy knows his stuff, and I can tell he's been collecting for a while. It's fun to see the torch "being passed" to y'all. Some people have to go it alone, it's nice to watch you and your wife's journey in your community.

[@timo4826]

Pedro seems like a really cool dude.

[@pcorey182]

This guy has one of the most amazing collections I've seen in a long time love the original artwork if I was going to spend big money it would be on original artwork before a comic publish pieces and commission pieces you can't go wrong

[@michaelschaubach9185]

His books never cease to amaze me. I gasped this entire video. Truly incredible books. So humble and so casual too. I’ve never seen someone reveal an X-Men #1 with that much relaxation. I’d be shaking!

[@Comicbookyoutubersrock]

There ok, I've seen better.

Dude thank you for showing us your collection enjoyed it very much

Does anyone else just love the sound of the cellophane?

[@deathdealer6696]

Yes it is relaxing

[@markalbert8135]

Very fun video. Enjoyed seeing his collection. Those were some nice slabs.

[@tressil3607]

I'm not a collector of graded toys, but own three SDCC exclusives that are graded. Graded toys have been around for over 10yrs.

[@leeniren3706]

These were some amazing books to have so many high-grade top titles it’s like going to mile high and looking at that collection

[@gregparks1785]

His collection is so amazing!! I was in awe with everything he pulled out. I’m starting to get into original art/sketches/commissions also but they can be really pricey. Fun to try to get stuff though. Great video!

[@jEdi_bUddhA_YOGi]

My favourite original art piece was most definitely the piece done by Alfonso Azpiri. I love the Amazing Fantasy 17 & FF1, but damn; that original Azpiri piece is priceless. Money wise, the FF & AF for sure, but if value wasn't paramount, the Azpiri piece is what I would pick from the entire video. Beautiful piece of art. Thx, to the both of you for sharing with us. Wow - I want that piece.

[@jasonholland7770]

Amazing collection! Would love to have a river of books like this flow through my possession filtering a few to keep here and there.

[@skybornsamurai961]

Really enjoyed this video. Absolutely amazing collection, Pedro. Beautiful books!

[@charliedogg7683]

Nearly 45 minutes, a new record for Comics Den. It's not so much that Gambit is wearing a thong, it's that he's wearing it on the outside - now that I can never unremember. Amazing though all the comics are, we've seen them before on KZbin or maybe even in the flesh at sales and conventions. But the art! Pedro is spot-on, the uniqueness of each piece just makes you stop and think. And with some of the artists sadly gone those pages are, if possible, even more unique.

[@allisknu11]

I hope his children appreciate their father. Imagine your dad leaving you an AF #15 and many other graded books as your inheritance. That doesn't even include life insurance, investments, and hard assets. These are graded so that means ALL of the hard work has been done. Not just raw copies sitting in a box somewhere.

[@lancesuarez4264]

this was so funny. I put the Deadman by Kelley Jones in the Link auction. Crazy to see it here. Congrats!

[@thehatcheteer6221]

Love Pedro man is a legend for sure when it comes to just comics and also his personality is great 💪👑

[@josephbarbera9220]

That collection is amazing! I wouldn’t be able to part with it! I guess I would be a lousy seller! Lol

[@erikb5643]

Very cool video! His collection is awesome!!

[@iankane1733]

Mind blowing collection but missed a little on that Madam Web spec. 😬

[@shadowman8786]

My prized original art is 2 pages of Spidey by Charles Vess.

[@rosshendry450]

Love the reaction to seeing Amazing Fantasy. 😂😁 Even mega comic collectors geek out seeing that hahaha, awesome video. 😁

[@robertomartinez8056]

Where in Puerto Rico did he get that deal for the Golden Age books? It is very hard for me to find any comics let alone keys or golden age books. 😢 Awesome collection btw! Loved the video.

[@Townhouse-mb4kc]

Excellent video and giving us insight into Pedro's mind is fascinating.

[@fedenciogonzalezjr9051]

Funny when people say the xmen are coming to the marvel universe when scarlet witch and quick silver are mutants that started in the xmen universe first and they were on the avengers movies already.

[@turtleanton6539]

They changed them

[@fedenciogonzalezjr9051]

​@@turtleanton6539 Yes I know they changed them for the marvel universe movie's but I thought that was a stupid idea to do because we all know" well the comic book reading community know they are mutants and are son and daughter of magneto and if you are going to expand the marvel universe in the future with mutants and the xmen universe" then what do you do with Scarlett witch and quick silver now lol you just changed two main characters of the xmen universe at least Fox film's of the xmen made a connection to magneto and quick sliver. Now they are going to have to recast new characters to play magneto kids or changed the storyline who knows.

[@nelsonrodriguez5451]

I think he has his book priced high. AMS direct edition is plenty on ebay for $1,000. He had his at $1,595. So again, a bit high.

[@gregparks1785]

He said he has to go back and re-price because everything has probably dropped.

[@Comicbookyoutubersrock]

Yeah I noticed that to, he does price a bit high on a bunch of stuff.

[@greyjedi6430]

Would take a long time pricing all those books

[@devaultc]

Were those archival bags and boards or maybe just mylites 4?

[@justinthomaskraus]

Pedro has a killer beard. 🤘🏼

[@stephengraham7037]

brilliant video great to see so many key books and original art😃😃😃😃😃

[@ScoutReaper-zn1rz]

I must be the odd collector. I collect whole runs not just keys. Anyone interested in a Rebirth Nightwing run from 1-91? LOL.

[@socratesalvarez7196]

Beautiful collection.

[@Stupidfy88]

Pedro was wrong about Morlun being in the movie. Womp womp!

[@kahnlives]

If the MCU gave the fans a great FF movie their books will skyrocket in price.

[@dumpsterbaby3155]

ok, I've had to ask this for awhile. Do u actually live in that house??? That clutter would give me nightmares

[@TheGardenarunner]

BEST COLLECTION EVER!!!

[@doctorshawn3461]

I love that Frazetta cover!

[@marsbase1357]

2nd question How many people out are willing to spend $1,000 or more on comic? I'll say 1 out 1000 or more

[@marsbase1357]

3rd question If u have paid $60,000 on a comic would you take $60,100 for it? If not why buy comic of $100 then. Like I said I don't understand?

[@dirkaminimo4836]

How many versions of that Spider-Man issue were there? I have like 5 dif versions so I’m tripping. Of course I dont have a clue about the dif. Are there any of those issues that look the same.. hopeless

[@jy2486]

Pedro is great!

[@Blacksheepcomics]

Whats his opinion on comics as investments for the long term.

[@StillOnly25c]

Those Action Comics looked great

[@WyomingSkysAboveMe]

Can someone tell what size boards and bags he is using in all these books?

[@electric4746]

Hey I dont know what size he has but this is my go-to Silver Bags & Boards fit everything Silver-Present which means the only books that wont fit are golden. So I recommend Silver Bags & Boards, but for Golden get Golden.

[@priority2]

Awesome video! Subscribed ❤

[@Asian_Connection]

Why would anyone fix AF#15 and get a purple label? Is he saying that he get it fix and try to pass it as blue label?

[@Knyghtrida]

Stupid question. What kind of plastic bags are those that the slabs are in.... And why use those plastic bags? Protection from the sun? Dirt? New to the hobby

[@Blacksheepcomics]

There is no stupid question, bro! Here is a breakdown of types of bags! Those are called Mylar Bags. They are also made for raw (uncased comics). They are 1/50 the strength of steel. It is 350 TIMES MORE RESISTANT to the diffusion of gases like oxygen, carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, etc. than poly bags. Mylar bags resistance to moisture, insect attack, fungus, mold, mildew, acid, oils, grease, and solvents is excellent. The negative is that they are around $1.00-$2.00 per bag, so they are expensive. The normal type that you see are poly bags which are great for a lot of comics, they are cheap in bulk and they protect the comic more than a normal plastic bags or zip locks and they also need to be changed every 7 years.

[@walterhoten5440]

Comic book market tanked. It’s a buyers market now.

[@certainly2509]

$500 for a GS Xmen with no cover??? WTF?

[@chrissingleton5877]

[@AbdulAdas]

I agree with him. The MCU is fried with their movies now. DC comics for the win 🏆

All in top condition too. Some collection that 💪🏻💥👍🏻

[@chrismarquez6419]

It's such an amazing collection. But his pricing on stuff is way too high in most cases. For example, those Swamp Things can be had for half the price or less than what he had them listed for.

[@andrewhemsley7500]

Madame Web is going to suck and flop just like the rest of the Marvel Crap Universe movies that came out this year, except for Guardians 3. Wait til the movie comes out, wait til the hype is dead then you can get that 1st Ezekiel appearance for less than what some ppl are asking for rn.

[@troy5731]

I only keep "Keys" ..... Is there any discussion in the hobby about what makes something a "key" I feel like too many people just recite dogma "first appearance of fukstik" and don't push back on accepted but questionable scripture. Just surprised that the same people who are into comics have such rigid rules. Doesn't anyone get tired of people feeling like they have to let everyone in the place know that they know the significance of this or that book, kind of a know it all that impresses nobody cause everybody does it. On Oahu in the 80's we had a casual dis.. ( maybe still, I wouldn't know) "What Bruh? trying?!" as in "you're trying too hard to impress". "It's obvious and a little cringey." Having said all that, this was a pretty interesting clip. Dude seemed cool but..easy to be cool to someone when they're helping you make money.

[@adamwest3266]

Those Spider-Man #1's are NOT rare. You should've seen the comic book stores when these came out. Each comic book store in my area had 100's of them. I bought five copies the day it hit shelves, then I ended up having 18 of them. In the factory plastic bags and the unbagged. I would imagine that everyone that has them are just sitting on them and the rest got lost as everything does.

[@TheMisfits7783]

not the platinum, those are actually rare and there is 6 or 7 variants of SM1

[@tressil3607]

Pedro specifically mentions that the Platinum is rare followed by saying, "you see a lot of these" when reviewing the #1s...

[@gregparks1785]

The platinum was a retailer incentive, much rarer than all the other versions.

[@marsbase1357]

The one thing that I don't understand is yes u have a comic for $5,000 someone buys it. Now how fast or how long will it take to get more money then what you paid?

[@pauldavis5665]

Nice books. A lot of them are way overpriced though.

[@Geoffreydarcy-pv4mq]

🔥💙🔥 satisfying 🚬

[@timdanner2596]

Not sure where he got that Secret Wars 8 was supposed to be released before ASM 252. How you could release SW 8 before ASM 252 when SW 1 was released a week before ASM 252? And there's only one first appearance of the black costume, and that's ASM 252, which appeared on the stands before any of the other early appearances. It's amazing how collectors continuously mess up the first black costume appearances. Guess you had to actually be there at the time and buying these issues when they appeared on the stands to get the appearances straight.

[@troy5731]

congrats on the "but aquaman,you cannot marry a woman without gills" post. Incoming!!!!........

[@Comicbookyoutubersrock]

"Let's start with the ASM 6 on a 6.5, that's a 2nd app of the Lizard". He's literally looking at the CGC label that says it's the 1st haha. And on top of that, what collector doesn't know it's the 1st hahahahaha
