Picking up Some ICONIC Comic Book Covers at a Great Local Comic Show!

[@GoodysResale]

It was a great little show and it was great to meet you there...that Batman 423 is a great book...i was able to grab a copy from josh myself thanks for pointing me in the right direction. Awesome pick up and it was great talking to you

[@lunchmoneycomics]

@@GoodysResale great meeting you too!

[@daveofford]

Just wanted to let you know how much I enjoy your videos. I am a lapsed comic book fan from the early 90s who got back into it this past year. Your videos have definitely reignited a passion/hobby for finding not just old books from my youth, but finding weird and interesting books in interesting places. I made my way to a warehouse sale last weekend (300,000 books priced at 50 cents a piece), and was able pull such fun books. Thank you for making these!

[@lunchmoneycomics]

@@daveofford thank you so much for that, and I’m so happy you are getting something out of the channel, it’s all I could hope for!

[@andrewshelton2145]

Nice. The Daredevil 111 is on my bucket list. 👍

[@dbulls33]

Man! Can't get enough of these kind of videos and pickups! The East Coast is something else! Lol Thanks for sharing!

[@VolkswagenGamer]

They really are, Texas is in a comics drought lol

[@dansxmencomics]

I love the Tomb of Horrors adventure you picked up. So rad!

[@doorsfan173]

Beautiful presenting copy of ASM 100, even if mid-grade. On camera, it looks phenomenal tbh. I got some great Romita Sr. at Plastic City - I would absolutely love to snag a copy of that even for the $80 original tag!

[@comicbookshifu]

As someone who still has some of his old D&D modules, magazine bags and boards will help you preserve them. Thanks for sharing the fun at the comic show!

[@geekonomicspodcast]

Hey thanks for visiting East of the River comic show. We love the video. Manchester CT has a show tomorrow at the Army & Navy club. 10am to 4pm. Just heads up. Keep up the fantastic work.

[@lunchmoneycomics]

@@geekonomicspodcast yeah I’m aware of the show but unfortunately I have a long planned summer event, otherwise I’d be there. I’ll definitely try to make it next time

[@BrokeBoyComics]

Awesome pickups!! I’m jealous of the Batman 423 it’s high on my list! I’ll have to try and make this event the next time it comes around. Glad I am finally able to catch up on your videos!

[@BrianCenti-j4d]

You Sir make me proud to be a comic collector and comic fan. Your not smug like some others, but you make your videos fun and entertaining 😉 😅 Love ❤️ all three, but my favorite has to be ASM # 100 💯 That is a incredible 😲 cover and issue. That show looked incredibly Hot 🔥 yeah i really enjoy the smaller shows like this compared to the mega ones. Thanks 😊 so much for sharing, keep them coming 😊😊😊

[@lunchmoneycomics]

@@BrianCenti-j4d thank YOU for that wonderful comment, I appreciate it!

[@BrianCenti-j4d]

@lunchmoneycomics and we all appreciate you brother 😃

[@stevenlaroche7800]

What a steal!!!!! The one I like the best is ASM 100

[@collectingcasually]

What a steal on that Batman! Still looking to add that to my collection, maybe I'll be lucky enough to get as good of a deal 😁

[@uncannyAce]

Jealous of all the comic shows in your area 😢 Another great episode! Keep it up!

[@JesseHardesty]

Same, I live in Kentucky and there's basically none around here or they're poorly advertised. I struggle to find any good books in my area.

[@monsterphile]

I am so excited for you when you find great stuff. I really enjoy your videos for this reason. They depress me a little when I realize a lot of the great stuff that I sold off decades ago on Ebay. This was before cleaning & pressing and slabbing was a thing. I sold my Hulk 181 for $500, but this was before the X-Men movies started. If I had held onto it and gotten it graded, I could probably have paid off my mortgage. I was a condition snob when I used to collect. I had a lot of great keys and a lot of unusual stuff. I even had a completed Marvel Value Stamp book. (I wasn't the one who did it though.) I do still have some good stuff, but alas, not the treasure trove that it was.

[@bnchile1]

I remember those hobbit books when they came, high quality paper and covers and super pretty art

[@CretanBullComics]

Over the years, I've lost so many characters in the Tomb of Horrors that a chill went up my spine when I saw you pull it out of that box ha!

[@JoshuaCunningham-e1w]

That was an insane thunderstorm that rolled in. Great gets Mike. Always a pleasure to see you!

[@lunchmoneycomics]

@@JoshuaCunningham-e1w yeah, I left at the WORST possible time

[@dalemoyers8881]

Great video as always!!! I’m a big fan of the smaller shows as well. I’m getting ready to go to a show in my area about an hour and a half from where I live. Then the next weekend I go to a Large show called the Steel City Con. Good job with the deal you got on those comics. Keep up the great work!! 😎

[@dprescott1970]

Tomb of Horrors was a beast. I love it. ❤😊

[@rohn-zc5sx]

Cool haul bro 💯👍

[@StillOnly25c]

Just Awesome

[@magicgeeks1955]

I’ve been to this show a few times and this is the first time I’m finding out there was a down stairs!!

[@glennlittle124]

Great deals!! Enterprise comics! I bought a bunch from them at the Western Mass show in Greenfield! Love that ASM the most( being a ASM collector!!) Another mention of Jim Starlin? Need to look into those Malibu ones more! LOL! I don't play D&D but my son does! Always great seeing the other stuff you get non comic related! Does it cost much for pressing comics? Does Jeff( Comic Spa) have a site or page?

[@cesarosorio1057]

gracias hermosos comics la mejor tienda de comics abrazos

[@JoshuaCunningham-e1w]

Josh at buzzcomics gives great deals, not just to Mike! ❤

[@Rhavas]

What a great little show. I need to do a better job checking for shows on Fridays! I could smell the pages of those old D&D modules, I would've checked that whole box. Great video and awesome pickups!

[@jebtan2001]

The D&D is fine by me, Mike. What a massive blast of nostalgia! If you can show me a copy of Tegel Manor I will be forever in your debt... Great vid and great comics. Thanks mate, keep up the good work.

[@paytonardoin688]

Amazing deal on that Batman! I’m still looking for a good deal on one myself

[@bnchile1]

some nice early AD&D stuff, too cool

[@0KC4MPF1RE]

Great video! In Denmark (where i live) we only have 1 "real" comic show per year, often with very overpriced books because of danish taxes. I hope to someday go hunting at The East Coast, where i can hopefully buy a comic book for a dollar (literally unheard of in Denmark).

[@lunchmoneycomics]

@@0KC4MPF1RE if you do make it over here hit me up!

[@0KC4MPF1RE]

@@lunchmoneycomics I definitely will! :D

[@michaelstone446]

Great video, Mike Thanks

[@SocratesReads]

I'm reading ready player one right now and when I saw you pull out Tomb of Horrors, I thought oh wow I just read about that !! Great video, as always 👍

[@lunchmoneycomics]

@@SocratesReads haha that’s funny

[@mikeyj7824]

That spiderman 100 cover is 🔥

[@richardwestphal5184]

Fantastic deal, I personally like the DD comic the best

[@robphoenix1182]

Nice pick-ups, Mike.

[@nealeflint3696]

Some major comic fun with d&d life is good 😃

[@jdharris2165]

Great job on the Amazing Spider-Man 100!

[@leighwestfall1578]

Great video love your videos! Awesome content! Those D&D modules fit in magazine bags and boards. No respect for them putting the sticker right on the book.

[@bobbymartinez8922]

AMAZING PICKUP ON Batman #423 !!!!

[@Noble_Comet]

Your my fav comic collector on KZbin love all the videos.

[@lunchmoneycomics]

@@Noble_Comet aw thank you so much!

[@kristopherparker6871]

You just showed a trifecta of books I adore. I have asm 100 bc why not?? Batman but sadly it's a second print. I collect dd but don't own that one. Focusing on the silver age run and the frank miller run exclusively. Great video. You'll be at 15000 subs by the time you post all the terrific on content. I cant wait!

[@Matt_Likes_Comics]

Great books as always, I really should get around to getting that 423.

[@Luke-xb9nf]

NICE!!!!!

[@TabithaTabCat]

I wish we had shows like this in the Pacific NW. I like the lowkey shows much better than the Comic Cons, but we don't get much around here.

[@geekimusprime]

Clean looking DD1 🤩

[@lunchmoneycomics]

@@geekimusprime I honestly did think about getting it… still am!

[@GaryBailey-hk4ex]

The funny thing is the first two are my favorite single marvel hero comics, Thor and Daredevil, then it is all the team books, like D.C. It is Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman and their team books!!! GaryBailey God of Thunder and Lightning

[@OmegaManComics]

That was a beautiful ASM 100

[@GaryBailey-hk4ex]

Oh that Daredevil ##111 is on my list for all the same reasons, Great Wolvie Villian, X-Men, and in Daredevil, and I have been trying to replace my Batman 423 also, great issues!!! Indeed!!! Gary Bailey KingofDarkness God of Thunder and Lightning

[@MarcSpectorComics]

Fun video mike nice pickups especially the asm 100 and batman. Are you planning on going to terrificon?

[@lunchmoneycomics]

@@MarcSpectorComics yes, I’ll be there all weekend!

[@dwaynesmith9482]

Bro it’s your channel. You show whatever you want

[@micpar2]

ASM#100! I had #100- #102, #139 & #150 all in VF or better condition signed in silver or black sharpie by John Romita SR too. I traded them away in exchange for a lot of pressing, cleaning/ washing. And like two hundred E. Gerber Silver Age back boards and mylars.

[@AMR_productions]

Nice pickups! Is there a database or list of where/when these shows are? I enjoy watching your vids and always wish I knew about these shows

[@lunchmoneycomics]

@@AMR_productions I mostly hear through Instagram, sometimes a certain vendor will list their shows, but in general just word of mouth

[@WhatIsOntheComicRack]

Did someone say D&D?!? Keep On the Borderlands is the greatest sandbox module ever written! However, Tomb of Horrors is more famous or should I say infamous Great for a one shot and I love all the ways people have beaten the module.

[@crzdcolombian]

missed last month. I know 1-2 shows ago one guy had Batman #121 1st Mr freeze

[@collectplayandenjoy2800]

People always say it’s not what you know, but who you know. Those deals were headed for you because of who you are and no other reason.

[@proud_to_be_a_ted]

What?? That batman 423 is seriously that kind of money ? I had it in my batman collection along with a great run from #401 through to # 530.. nothing after then as that's when I had to get rid of my stuff.. Had loads through the 300' not as many in the 200 ' and a nice smattering in the 100's such as a lovely copy of 181. All had to go as I needed a few quid & I couldn't move what I had as I had to move home quickly. I dabble here and there now but I won't start collecting again

[@jarredsmith9187]

Lunch money Comics,did you know that everyone of those Batman book you just got is missing color on it cause Todd did a video on it .

[@lunchmoneycomics]

@@jarredsmith9187 I do! I almost mentioned it in the video but once you see it you can’t unsee it and I didn’t want to put that in people’s minds forever lol

[@rgi_comics]

Was that dealer aware that his Thor was missing the MVS? $75 is a little over the top for an incomplete book.

[@rsholman97]

Who was the dealer with the D&D long box?

[@lunchmoneycomics]

@@rsholman97 I didn’t catch his name

[@leighwestfall1578]

I would have had to save all that D&D stuff. Very under valued market imo

[@Comiccomplter55]

Did u make it home b4 it rained?

[@lunchmoneycomics]

@@Comiccomplter55 nope lol

[@thedestructivegamermycomic2628]

Honestly dont mind the clickbate loved the video and the comics you picked up

[@geekimusprime]

Technically he did “pick them up” to look at them, but then he put them back 😂

[@dinxsy8069]

Best way to save money is don't go looking, it's hard to not to look it's like a decease, especially the demon that is eBay. I currently spend 100-140 a day whilst still trying to fund the hobby by profits but it's soooo hard to not hold onto something that you really want to keep but don't need. Thus not making money/ These video's don't help, it gets the juices flowing to go for a quick look haha.

[@lunchmoneycomics]

@@dinxsy8069 haha I apologize then for being a bag influence!

[@presto111man]

Don't just pick up the covers. Buy the whole book along with them.

[@lunchmoneycomics]

@@presto111man haha touché

[@User8vfjhejf]

I saw myself in this video, man I look like shit

[@lunchmoneycomics]

@@User8vfjhejf say hi next time

[@21Million]

you probably dont notice but you always thumb grip comics in their most vulnerable spot at mid-left spine. *cringe* you can hold them in so many other BEtTER ways

[@lunchmoneycomics]

@@21Million I promise I never put pressure on the spine, my thumb is against the side of the board
