[@jorgemedina7089]

I just started listening to you and thank you Haven’t bought anything yet but I have a list already. Thank you

[@davendrajurakhan6881]

I have rocket raccoon #1,longshot#1,punisher #1,darkhawk#1, in my collection

[@dericplummer9272]

I love the Angel/Archangel I cant believe he was butchered twice in the movies. Hopefully we see him proper in the MCU.

[@djlegaspi7691]

Darkhawk! I always support videos with Darkhawk in them. 😄

[@Swagglehaus]

haha, me too :P

[@craven1927]

These videos are nice. Not all of us have $40,000 to blow on comics lol

[@nore1800]

I like that X-Factor play !

[@gardzy99]

I received my Web of Spider-Man 1 in the mail today!!!! That’s a pic from a previous video of yours, but the cover is sooooo amazing. PLUS, I picked up the Punisher 1 last week at a local shop for $10!!! It was part of a consignment sale....also picked up Avengers 260 for $6.....origin and cover of Nebula. Another key you discussed!! See Swaggs.....you speak and we listen!!! Lol

[@Swagglehaus]

Woot woot! That’s awesome! Great pick ups, and yeah that. Web of Spider-Man 1 cover just looks amazing in person.

[@JLPelath]

I am very pleased with how many of these I have. I very proudly bought Darkhawk #1 at my LCS the day it came out, and I still have it. Probably should pick up a few more. I’m with you on Darkhawk, Mickey. Super cool character.

[@Swagglehaus]

woohoo! You got some great taste in books :)

[@JLPelath]

@@Swagglehaus Thank you, thank you. I pulled my copy out a while ago to get slabbed. Haven’t pulled the trigger on it yet. But he’s sitting here right next to Sleepwalker #1, ALSO bought when it came out! 😂

[@SBAVoltronProdt]

Everybody all at once now! DARKHAWK! DARKHAWK! DARKHAWK! DARKHAWK!!!!

[@Swagglehaus]

Chanting Darkhawk warms my heart 😂

[@Itsblase01]

Just found a 9.0 raw copy for 40$ at my local shop!Glad to have it

[@Klung1]

I’ve pulled 6 of these from my long boxes over the last couple months (including Darkhawk!) and put them in my spec bin. Nice to know I’m not just super hopeful. Thanks for sharing your list.

[@Swagglehaus]

Like minds! Thanks for watching.

[@danielcoapstick3602]

Great video. I recently invested in a Darkhawk 9.8

[@Swagglehaus]

Nice pick up! I'm bias but that book is one of my favorites :)

[@tonystuff5070]

Great segment! Would love to see one at the $100-$200 price points.

[@Magua47]

I picked up F4 211 just last week in a CGC 9.0 for this reason thinking he would initially be introduced into the MCU. Nice list.

[@Swagglehaus]

Great pick up!

[@richb1016]

I bought Darkhawk #1 off the shelf when it came out. Was just looking at it the other day thinking how funny it would be to see him in the MCU

[@Swagglehaus]

I would lose it 😂. Hehe

[@michaelreynolds1338]

StarHawk and DarkHawk - Solid Picks !

[@Swagglehaus]

Thanks!

[@needler267]

When people start recommending darkhawk#1 then you know the comic book market is in a bubble.

[@gardzy99]

Great video!!! Love these budget videos because I am on a budget!!! Lol!! You should expand and do a Classic Cover for under $25 budget too or whatever amount you feel would work.....but some Jim Lee and McFarlane covers are treasures and VERY affordable. They also add some great quality to any collection!!!

[@Swagglehaus]

Great to hear, yeah if people like these types of videos I can def do more

[@brucew7339]

Love terrax. Have three issues myself and my punisher 1 is at cgc. Fire books this video

[@Swagglehaus]

Nice! Hope you get the grade you want on that punisher!

[@isoygblitz]

Love Darkhawk!! I’m hoping he shows up in the MCU. Maybe as a new member of the Guardians at the end of GOTG 3?

[@Swagglehaus]

That would be awesome! Not sure if we’ll get him that soon but hopefully in the future.

[@jaybones614]

I read Longshot back in the day and still have my copies. Fingers crossed

[@River.Rambler]

At the live Q&A you mentioned your childhood collection as well as your brothers. Any chance we get a video where you flip through them and discuss why some hit the nostalgia button in a big way? These are the conversations my comic friends and I have, why we love these books. I feel we get little glimpses here and there with your love of Darkhawk and your thankful video from Thanksgiving. Love to see that flip through and the books that shaped your fandom.

[@Swagglehaus]

Yeah I can maybe do a video like that...actually I did do a video some months back called "top 50 comics"...and my top 3 are all nostalgia books if you want to watch that one.

[@River.Rambler]

@@Swagglehaus I absolutely did! More of that is always nice to see. With all the spec talk it's nice to know why everyone likes what they like. While teaching today we talked about finding common ground. I talked about how sharing what we like and discussing why we like what we like is the best way to find common ground over discussing problems and dislikes about the world that dominate our daily conversations. A bit deep but my love of comics always provides common ground for my students and I and I know everyone lights up when having that kind of conversation

[@cjdesign5700]

FF 211 is a sure thing and rising...IMHO. Thanks, Swag

[@Swagglehaus]

Great book for sure!

[@barrysaide]

Thanks for this content. I am a big fan of Longshot, Rocket Raccoon, and Darkhawk as off the grid picks. One thing I've noticed that there's a lot of Facebook hate toward Darkhawk. I'm not sure why. I like the series, I think it's well-written, and I think it has room to grow. Am I wrong on this?

[@richardzaric2524]

Thanks for the list. I'll look out for them. I have FF #211, but that's staying in the PC.

[@speccollector9740]

Stallone ruined Judge Dredd for a bunch of Dredd fans. I thought he was decent but I remember discussions with lots of people back then. Dredd was huge for an Indie character. Good picks though. I hope Darkhawk hits the way you think it will.

[@Swagglehaus]

Maybe I was young, but I remember really liking that movie as a kid :P. Though I don't think the more recent Dredd was much cooler.

[@gingiemancards]

Great video! Interesting plays

[@Swagglehaus]

Thanks!

[@TheVeeOhla]

I made a remark about "why Is Darkhawk $20?" At my local shop recently... guess I should pick it up while I'm there tomorrow

[@chrischreative2245]

Punisher #1 is always boss cover 👍🏽

[@Swagglehaus]

Totally agree!

[@angelvalle9963]

Cpv👑

[@carminecostello]

Great video! Nice to learn about comics prior to them sorin out of control...🙂

[@mdh6718]

Love the list. I recently got a great copy of Darkhawk #1 and Alpha Flight #1 for about 30 bucks together . The FF 211 has also been on my watch list lately 👌🏾🔥👌🏾

[@Swagglehaus]

Sounds like a great deal! Alpha Flight 1 I think is another great book.

[@thezero7288]

I’m a big fan of Darkhawk and would love to see him in the MCU, I snagged a copy of Darkhawk #1 a while back that I’m very pleased to have in my PC

[@Swagglehaus]

Nice!!

[@bdgcomics9905]

What about Ghost Rider #28? It's still under $25 and we got Morbius as well as the Midnight Suns game on the way

[@Swagglehaus]

I think that's a great book, just figured I would highlight some books that haven't been talked as much about :)

[@bdgcomics9905]

@@Swagglehaus Good to know. I honestly didn't know how much it had been talked about.. just started collecting this year :)

[@zachbrobst9473]

I just got a Darkhawk 1 from Brys last live sale and my son claimed it. The next gen is claiming him for their own!

[@Swagglehaus]

haha yes! Good to know the youth is with me on this one :D

[@karinaelias6732]

Always great!

[@davecironelibrarykid]

Bookmark this video guys! Mickey says "An actor with the caliber of Sylvester Stallone." History has been made.

[@Swagglehaus]

Lol, maybe caliber was the wrong word…”star power” is what I was getting at 😅

[@ryanthered4254]

I think Terrax will happen sooner or later but I think Marvel is heading down the path of the Skrulls being the first FF villain. Then maybe we get a teaser at the end hinting at Galactus (or a herald). For real though...I think all 10 of these are great buys if you can get them at the right price/condition. Nice vid

[@edduran2571]

Awesome picks….I have The solo first joker of 1975 in my PC but I would like that Denny O’Neale comic so I got to add that as well

[@wowisntitanamazinglyamazin9550]

Awww man I have been looking for an Ironman 219 because it's the story that got me into Ironman Oh I found a Captain America #354 in the wild for 15, pretty good shape as well When I get Nova #1 and complete my original New Warriors first appearances, I was gonna go for every members first appearance so Darkhawk #1 may be one I go for before then

[@billgober2]

I'd personally go after the spiderman 30th anniversary cover set except the black one which is 40 and over. The other 3 are 10 to 20 each. As a set they sell for 80 to 100 and more for news stands

[@chopin171717]

Another great video, Swagg!

[@Swagglehaus]

Thanks!!

[@davendrajurakhan6881]

I have Racoon, longshot, the punisher, Darkhawk unslabed yet.

[@sattoriemei3210]

Great picks! Love the Rocket Raccoon limited series. I even have a few OA from that series. Rumor has it Longshot will be coming to the MCU so not so much of a longshot. Punisher 1 limited series is also one to consider. Other than ASM 129, it was THE comic to have if you were a Punisher fan back in the day. Would have to settle for a lower grade though on $25 budget.

[@Swagglehaus]

For sure! I’ve actually seen a decent amount of punisher 1’s in the wild that we’re NM at this price range. So like with a lot of these, you gotta be a little patient and choosy. But the deals are out there.

[@pingadol1555]

Love the insight!

[@Swagglehaus]

Thanks!

[@derekd4221]

a couple of underrated specs... 1st Learton in Alpha flight #58, Ekaf in Guardians of the Galaxy #13, and Elbillug in Spiderman #424.

[@Swagglehaus]

Great picks

[@supermegaone]

Disclaimer for long shot joke haha. Would love more unknowns into the MCU nonetheless!

[@Swagglehaus]

Haha Dad Joke for sure

[@MrRanman91]

Punisher was definitely just as popular, as was Ghost Rider in the 80's-90's....that's why they popped up in everyone's book.

[@x-menxrp2643]

there are a million copies of this book..... tuff callls.. good insights.

[@vinniwhitlock7080]

Gambit…Forge… Rogue… bring em’ on…

[@Swagglehaus]

💯!

[@jarredsmith9187]

I just got AMS#129 CGC 5.0 cause the punisher is mu favorite character but i still have 4 more grail books to get a TMNT#1,X-Men#1, Hulk#181 and Amazing Fantasy#15.

[@CoachDale_TopNotchMuayThai]

I’m always down for some $25 keys 🔑 Thank you so much Swag, love your videos bro 🤙🏼

[@Swagglehaus]

Thanks Dale! Appreciate it

[@billgober2]

Also IMO getting silver surfer black 1 in various printings for 15 to 25 is well worth it

[@williambain3979]

Thanks swagg

[@TheGenXGeek]

What if the MCU has Galactus with Multiple Heralds... If they come in the Fan4 movie would make sense... play up the 4 elements, Silver Surfer, Nova, Air Walker, and Terrax. One each for the Fan4 to deal with before Galactus shows up.

[@scottbech173]

Started snagging copies of ff 211 a few weeks ago. You can get some mid grades for 20 but nice copies are gonna go for 50-60.

[@Swagglehaus]

Yeah I guess it depends on the deal you're looking at on ebay, but I've seen high grade copies in the $25 range in LCS's and you can sometimes snag those live auctions.

[@scottbech173]

I wish my LCS had decent books. But point well taken nevertheless

[@bubbspelch1134]

Just found punisher 1 At the good will for 1$. Looks minty.

[@Swagglehaus]

Oh snap!! Nice find

[@Red-Devil884]

That first US. Agent is almost impossible to find for less than $80-$100 now. Ive been looking for it for some time.

[@camm8642]

archangel is def underrated that whole x factor run was really good the xmen movie failed to really do that story justice hopefully the mcu does better as they have been at times hit and miss with some characters as well.

[@editboy09]

I have Darkhawk #1 and it’s in pristine condition.

[@stevenschaller1672]

In the 90's there were two kinds of marvel collectors..the venom, wolverine,punisher guys.and the rest if us who never fell for the hype!!👍🤣🤣

[@Swagglehaus]

haha, facts!

[@wowisntitanamazinglyamazin9550]

Tbf tho Punisher is really cool and all of their first appearances are worth a good amount, even their first solo series #1s are worth a few hundred in good shape

[@stevenschaller1672]

@@wowisntitanamazinglyamazin9550 oh definitely.every title is valid! I was just stereotyping those collectors! They were and still are ruthless!🤣

[@johnnyburger7409]

Very cool list

[@Swagglehaus]

Thanks!

[@TheGardenarunner]

GREAT COMIC PICS NEED ALL OF THEM< I DO HAVE THE NIGHT CRAWLER MINI 4 BOOK SERIES EXCELLENT OVER LOOKED I SENSE SOMETHING IN THE MCU.

[@Swagglehaus]

I need to look into Night Crawler series!

[@TheGardenarunner]

Excellent 4 mini series Night crawler in his Pirate attire/theme in many battles fights a Jaws shark cameo, Rock's. 👌

[@MarcSpectorComics]

I would have added sleepwalker 1 to the list tons of copies out there for under 25$ and he ties to the supernatural phase going forward which is what we will see more of

[@Swagglehaus]

Yeah that's a great book worth mentioning, I could have included but figured I'd leave that one out since it recently shot up in value. But a cool character for sure imho

[@davendrajurakhan6881]

Hello. I have all the #1 listed, I bought 25 years ago.

[@davidlasdon457]

All hail Darkhawk

[@Swagglehaus]

haha :P

[@tonyteti2060]

Pretty good thx

[@gosikh]

Thanks!

[@richardsrj64]

Ok, I have to ask. Is that an Emmy you have on your book shelf?

[@Swagglehaus]

I won if for a campaign I directed, but I talk about it in my 10k q&a livestream video :)

[@davendrajurakhan6881]

All the #1 I have I collect all the 1st edition I can

[@billgober2]

How about ASM 375 in the 25 range

[@Whalewraith]

I have the longshot mini series. I can really see him with Deadpool in a mojoverse squid game tv show.

[@Swagglehaus]

that would be epic!

[@stevenschaller1672]

Check out marvels what the? Darkhawk character parody!🤣🤣👍

[@jujitsu3839]

You make this video then all 3 Iron man #219 on my watchlist get bought....lol

[@Swagglehaus]

Doh! My bad. Hopefully you can find them in the wild

[@pharaohjb]

Personally, I think Defenders 28 is under the radar BECAUSE he's being played by Sylvester Stallone. Bluuuuurrrrgh. :)

[@Swagglehaus]

haha :P

[@sagekuragi9770]

lol @ darkhawk -just keeps hanging around

[@Swagglehaus]

hehe, can't get rid of him :P

[@drancealot]

Was the Punisher really that big, ever? I feel like everyone thought he was really cool back in the 90s including myself. But I never read of his books (and I read a lot of everything back then) and no one I know ever read them either. And apart from ASM 129, none of his books are really worth that much. It's like the idea of the Punisher and the his super cool logo were more popular than his actual books.

[@Swagglehaus]

I def thought the Punisher was huge in the 80's and 90's. I mean its hard to truly measure...but it does say something that he got a movie in the 80's with Dolph Lundgren :P

[@qwerty52676]

As far back as the early 90s he already had three series running ("punisher", war zone, and war journal). He was definitely a big deal even back then

[@wowisntitanamazinglyamazin9550]

Personally I love reading Punisher books, it's a fun read since a lot of the times it feels like I'm reading an action movie. Jim Lee on War journal is probably one of my favorite runs to go back and read out of all comics

[@angelvalle9963]

Punisher is the man he can get the job done without any super powers.

[@Chris-es3wf]

Pretty sure this guy has 200 NM+ copies of Darkhawk stashed in his closet 🤣

[@Swagglehaus]

Lol I wish!

[@JayTron5000]

Thanks for making a video for us broke mofos.

[@Swagglehaus]

hehe, I'm there with ya. I need those cheap keys too :P
