Started my collection in 1963, good year to start, in 69 you could still order #1 Spiderman for $10 bought 5 or 6 wish of course I would of bought a lot more. Have entire colllection of Fantastic 4, Daredevil Avengers etc... Stan the man and Johnny Romero. Nice to see you can get some lowgrade good stuff cheap. Have not really kept up with things, last 20yrs. But thinking on going to a Con with my one grandson who will inherit my collection one day. Thanks for motivating me again, I have been lost in metal detecting and coin collecting last 20yrs.😊

But I really want to build up this channel so I can start traveling a little for conventions and HeroesCon is definitely near the top of conventions I want to attend. I do love that Frankenstein series the art is very unique and fun. Very different then what you normally saw in that era.
