To this day I remember unpacking the first issue of Sandman. When it originally came out I was managing a pretty large comic shop. I was sold when I was filling out the order forms and put it down for 50 issues. When the store owner reviewed the order before placing it, he had a fit. The day it came out we sold out and couldn't get any restock. After that he upped our orders for issues two and three. He never questioned my numbers on orders again. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

That ROCKETEER 3D Comic and Cassette Tape was one of the few comics that I was able to get my hands on as a kid. I didn't have access to a comic shop, so it was Archie comics at the supermarket checkout stands and specialty packaged stuff like this, which was sold in the books and toys isle at department stores. I was obsessed with The Rocketeer that summer before the movie came out. I would draw his winged helmet over and over, watch the Behind-The-Scenes promo spots on the Disney Channel at my Grandma's house, and daydream about what it would be like flying around with a jetpack. My parents took me to see the movie when it came out, but all the Tommy Guns, Nazi gangsters and the weird giant hitman scared the crap out of me. I revisited it later as an adult and loved it, of course. I have always enjoyed Alan Arkin's relatable neurotic, deadpan humor. I still have the 3D comic, but since it's trashed and since there's not a half-naked 40's "good girl" drawn by Dave Stevens on the cover, it's worthless now. So you should probably just toss yours too.

WhatNot is great, but I've run into sellers who start auctions at and even above FMV for a book, then get upset that no one is buying. I understand they don't want a book to go for peanuts but start it at half FMV at least or put it in the BIN and run some dollar books instead! The true fun of WhatNot is the community engagement and the thrill of live bidding against someone else trying to get a good deal.

Mike you should get a reproduction cover made up for that worlds finest issue. I have a Batman #5 that’s cover less and on eBay I contacted a seller named handmedowns321. He custom made me a really high quality cover. Just slipping it over the cover less comic makes it present so nicely.

Those DC records are pretty sweet. The only record I had like that as a kid was a Star Trek record with a really bad voice cast. Sandman is such an awesome series. Neil Gaiman is a master. Great books all around, especially those Golden Age books, and a wicked good deal on that 9.8 X-Men 4.

Sometimes I feel bad at the deal I got that I have to tip them to ease my mind morally. Great video, as always!

Then right before Xmas, they did buy 10, get 10 for free... I couldn't say no at 50 cents a pop. Not quite as good as .25 cents... but still. I have snagged all, except the 4 big keys in the first 60 issues now and I"m reading them. Clasic Simonson and Simonson action. Love it.

I'm done collecting floppy comics. I hit all of my goals and there's nothing I'd like to buy anymore, I'd just be wasting money. Just yesterday I decided to collect original art thanks to watching a KZbin channel, The Comics Den. They are a husband and wife comic book KZbinrs from Florida but the husband, Angelo is from New York and has that thick NY accent. They're so nice and they recently attended OAX (original Art Expo). Maybe someday you'll own an originl Dave Stevens art, Mike. Or a John Bryne original art. I'm gonna pull the trigger on a Del Otto original art, a Ken Lashley and I was recommended this one artist that's been killing it on the comic book art scene, Manix Abrera. He draws cartoon versions of classic covers.I plan to buy a Mike Allred original art too! And check out The Comic Den's KZbin channel! They're awesome!
