Top 10 Comics On A $50 Budget - Summer 2024

[@seanwelch71]

Complete runs are better than graded keys.

[@CoMoComicBooks]

As a dealer, there is nothing better than a run collector. Selling wall books makes the daily sales look good, but selling out of the boxes is where the bottom line gets a boost.

[@staticxtreme27]

Completely agree. When I start a new run, it reignites my love for the hobby.

[@AaronLakes-ge9su]

I totally agree with you

[@jasonsalazar7126]

Drew you make it easy to come back to watch your videos they're always entertaining so full of knowledge and we are blessed to have you in the industry sharing all of your knowledge with us!

[@CoMoComicBooks]

Thanks for the kind words Jason! Thanks for dropping by!

[@seanwelch71]

I like your style. Lower grade copies are good enough vs. rarity.

[@CoMoComicBooks]

Thanks! I’m glad you enjoyed the video! I usually try and keep it to VF or better on the budget videos as I know some people drop off pretty quickly when you get below that. Personally, I’m much more interested in overall presentation than actual grade. Give me a good looking 3.0 any day and I’ll be happy (if we’re talking silver or older).

[@midnite1235]

@@CoMoComicBooks I totally agree on lower grades!!! I even go as low as 2,0 on Silver books like Batgirls origin, A cover that looks pretty good when graded is pretty nice!!!

[@sidneyrivera3578]

Another great video Drew; thanks. I was one of the collectors who got back in the game at the height of the market boom🤷🏻. I’m still here and much more into reading than worshiping plastic cases containing paper.

[@CoMoComicBooks]

That will be to your benefit, without a doubt! Thanks for watching!

[@aka_peterpalmer]

Love your insights Drew! Thank you for another entertaining and informative video.

[@CoMoComicBooks]

Thanks for watching!!! I’m glad you enjoyed the video!

[@robphoenix1182]

Kraven's last hunt is such a better and fitting title. Fun list Drew.

[@CoMoComicBooks]

Yeah, I guess it stuck for a reason.

[@jesselynch1928]

Drew you are right. Glad I watched this. Lots of stuff I didn’t knoa about

[@CoMoComicBooks]

I promise you, in this hobby you will never stop learning about new and interesting things and books.

[@brute_nm]

Great list, as always!

[@CoMoComicBooks]

❤️ Thanks for all the support man!

[@UsagigirlComics]

I love #2 on your list. What a great joker cover.

[@CoMoComicBooks]

It’s as classic as it gets! The next issue doesn’t suck either!

[@jodypasalich28]

I have a question. I've been collecting comics since I was 11 or 12, I'm 57 now. The New Mutants was one of my favorites, because of it I have TNM 98. I have looked into getting it graded and have decided not to, I know I'm going to sit on it and Hope Ryan keeps making good movies. What are your thoughts on grading? Is it really that important? I like the thought I or grandchildren could still read it and it's not just a cover to look at. Thank you.

[@CoMoComicBooks]

On that book, unless it’s a newsstand copy, Mark’s Jewelers, etc. I generally don’t recommend grading it unless you’re confident you’ll get at least a 9.4, and really more like a 9.6. There just isn’t that much additional value added for the cost.

[@dalemoyers8881]

We’re in the same boat. I’ve been collecting on and off since I was a kid. I just collect for my own enjoyment and not to resell or have them graded. I only buy raw books because of the nostalgia and the smell… Lol. 😎

[@Mr.Digit115]

i would say if you have the 98 and its in high grade, meaning 9.2 or above,...slab it, buy a reprint and read it if necessary. if you keep it raw put it in a mylar w board and still read the reprint......sounds like you have a good collection.

[@jodypasalich28]

@Mr.Digit115 Thanks, just recently, I did get slabs for a few of the comics I have. I appreciate the feedback.

[@tylerthecomiccouple3346]

Love watching these top 10 videos and how you don’t do the same ones everyone else is doing

[@CoMoComicBooks]

I couldn’t do that. The 47th time in a year I had to talk about NM98, ASM300 or Hulk181 I’d just pull the plug on the whole works. Thanks for watching!

[@dalemoyers8881]

Great video. Love the content. Keep up the great job. 😎

[@CoMoComicBooks]

I’m glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!

[@dandelatorre1870]

Great list for $50! Especially the FF 140 book.

[@CoMoComicBooks]

Thanks for checking out the video DDLT!

[@staticxtreme27]

I love hunting the Valiant Nintendo books, nice little treasure hunt. Great video as always, Drew!

[@CoMoComicBooks]

Thanks for watching! I appreciate the continued support!

[@darrelldent9083]

FF #140, my entry into comics collecting! I continually reread my silver and bronze, lower grade is fine, just needs to be complete.

[@CoMoComicBooks]

What a time to have started! Thanks for watching!

[@cnote729]

Another great episode I'll be getting that Doom and Detective Comics issues

[@CoMoComicBooks]

Good luck! That Doom series is pretty tough to find in the wild. I feel like I don’t see it often at all.

[@thomaslandschulz5050]

Great list!

[@CoMoComicBooks]

Thanks for watching!

[@magicgeeks1955]

Great different picks. I’m going to find the trek book

[@CoMoComicBooks]

Thanks! I can’t talk about the same ol, same ol flavor of the week books. I’d go crazy talking about Secret Wars 8 for the 847th time.

[@MoneyballComics]

Love ASM 294! Great pick. I also love that this was a six-part story that ran through the 3 titles and not a six-issue limited series that ran outside those titles. I remember collecting the storyline as they came out and couldn't wait to read the next issue. I'd love to get all the Fearful Symmetry: Kraven's Last Hunt issues graded in a 9.8 someday. Thanks for the video!

[@CoMoComicBooks]

I was just looking at those as I was writing this! The most valuable of the six might surprise you! I know it did me. I need to break out my hardcover and reread this thing. It’s so freakin’ good.

[@Doombot2.0]

I just picked up a nice copy of Thor 168 for $50. Love the Galactus covers and I've been chasing a nice copy at a decent price for a long time. People usually want alot for a higher grade 168 so I'm happy Also there's a good motion comic books of Doom here on youtube. Not that I'm trying to shout out the boss man or anything but maybe I'll get another upgrade if he sees this.

[@seanwelch71]

I bought many of the early Thor issues for $2-$5 when nobody cared about Mighty Thor. Yea Verily!

[@Doombot2.0]

@@seanwelch71 was before my time but alot of those early thor are some og the best in comics history in my opinion. Just beautiful when found in nice condition

[@CoMoComicBooks]

That Galactus arc was actually one of the last ones I picked up before polishing off my Thor run. Fantastic stuff. Thanks for watching.

[@shawnjones8748]

Love this. Always hoping i have some of your list just for the clout 😂
