Loved this Ryan, particularly the intro. Thanks for the shout out and giving this challenge more momentum by picking up the spare tags that no one used, really appreciate it. Love the books you chose too; we seem on the same wavelength and agree with your picks. That Alpha Flight 1 Canadian Variant is the perfect combination, so can't understand why it's not worth more, definitely something I need in collection especially as a huge Alpha Flight/John Byrne. Sadly there is no Excalibur UK Price variants; agree that that would be so cool if it existed. I just got my Amazing Spider-man 316, agree that it is THE venom book. Strange Tales 135 is extremely undervalued; love that book and happy to have one. I Need to get that Sub-Mariner 1 especially with that beautiful Buscema cover. X-Men 50 gets all the love because of the cover, but X-Men 49 is the book for Polaris. Again, a huge gap in my collection.

My pleasure Dave! Thanks for starting a fun challenge! It’s too bad Excalibur 1 doesn’t have a price variant but thanks for letting me know.

Put me in Coach!!! LOL Thanks for the tag man!! I am putting a list together now. FANtastic book picks my friend!! Can't agree with you more especially on the Polaris appearance.

My pleasure man, hope you’re still going to do one… I got my eyes peeled for it!

The Canadian Price Variant Alpha Flight #1 is absolutely under-rated for Canadian comic book collectors. I actually expected to see you put Strange Tales #107 there, but #135 is a fine choice as well.
@colossuscollector2 ай бұрын
Glad you agree Raph! Thanks for watching man! 107 would have been a worthy choice as well!

I tuned out during the first 7.5 minutes of you explaining about KZbin tag vidoes. I do like & follow your channel. Maybe explain about KZbin videos on a separate video. Cool thinking on the Canadian price variant for Alpha Flight #1. Maybe Hulk #181 would also be appropriate for the price variant.

Good list Colossus ;) My brother and I have 6 of those Alpha Flight 1's (two CPV's), but none are graded yet. Maybe only 1, or two at the outside, 9.8's but not the CPV's darnit. We have two of the ASM 316's, but ungraded (hopefully 9.8's :) ). Also have the Sub-mariner, but probably only a 5.0-5.5. Would love to have the other books also.

Thanks for watching Kelly! Sounds like you have lots of great books on your hands! Hope you have lots of 9.8s in there!

The Canadian price variant is definitely what you want to get if you're buying Alpha flight 1

Spot on with X-Men #49. $50 always gets more love for the exact reasons you've said. Brutally underrated book. And I'm KICKING myself for not choosing Alpha Flight #1. Absolutely brilliant book to choose. Great video, dude!

Don’t kick yourself my friend! That’s the great thing about tagging a fellow Canadian, Alpha Flight will eventually get the love lol

Alpha flight is a great book I pick it up every time I see one but X-Men 120 and 121 will keep the value down until puck catches fire.
@colossuscollector2 ай бұрын
yeah 120 and 121 are definitely the money books but AF1 in a CPV is pretty awesome and should be more valuable 🇨🇦

How do you mean undervalued? Like a gut feeling Rogues 1st appearance should be worth more or theres a real chance that a book will take off and rise heavily in value?
@colossuscollector2 ай бұрын
I thought I explained it pretty good with each book. I think “Undervalued” can be for different reasons and mean different thing depending on the book.
