[@reprintranch]

Congrats on the pick-up! The headline on the back cover cracks me up -- "Don't Pay a Penny for these Newest Frocks!"

[@billyrod1980]

Nice book! Hope the kick starter campaign goes well. I think you keep it black and white. Would fit the noir theme but great art indeed.

[@kenny_numbers]

On camera, that book looks like a 9.2. Gorgeous copy! Incredible deep colors. Congratulations on a great book!

[@Swagglehaus]

Thanks!!

[@t-ravis6803]

Chamber Of Chills. My uncle, RIP gave me a bunch. Very cool!

[@seancody3195]

The art is amazing in your upcoming comic book. It actually looks amazing in black & white. Looking forward to it.

[@Swagglehaus]

Thank so much!

[@jasonsalazar7126]

Congrats on the new addition to the collection. Love seeing Golden age books

[@Swagglehaus]

Thanks so much!

[@DracoBigD]

Excited to see the full release of the book Swagg!

[@Swagglehaus]

Thanks!

[@marvelvsdc6611]

Wow, Swag very cool that you’re getting into PCH comics! I’m slowly going into that market as well because of you, automatic comics and comicbook investments among others! I will definitely support you on your kickstarter comic…it looks interesting and exciting…I love that you decided to have the PCH vibe! 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼

[@Swagglehaus]

Awesome, thank you!

[@michellewaffle1383]

Oooh congrats on the pickup and book launch! 🙌

[@Swagglehaus]

Thank you!! 😁

[@nowherebound2908]

Sweet pick up! Love that cover, too! Now you've got me wanting to get a PCH book! - Oh, just got to the end! If I have any money left from my comic buying, I will join that kickstarter! Looks awesome!

[@Swagglehaus]

Thank you!!

[@richhistory4124]

That book has great color! Love it! Another PCH book thats going to be off the market for a long time, enjoy! Dipping your toes, silly collector, there is no such thing, 1 becomes 3, 3 becomes 10, and blam! your selling books you never thought you would just to get the next PCH fix. I first started collecting PCH back in 1995, it all started because I liked Blue Bolt 106 cover by LB Cole, it was a sci-fi cover but he did many great horror covers so I was hooked. I just wish I used all my collecting dollars to buy nothing but golden age back then but I was buying current books too. These PCH books are going to disappear into collections once again, they really came out of the woodwork with the price jumps, but eventually you could see books with no sales because they are in collections.

[@comicfanagain8405]

Looks awesome!! All around amazing video! Congrats Swagg!

[@Swagglehaus]

Thanks!!

[@shane-canadiancomicpickups9189]

Congrats on the upcoming campaign! Looking forward to learning more about it

🖖🎃WELCOME to the neighborhood 🎊 🎉!!! I’ve been swimming in the PCH pool for a few months and I’m VERY reluctant to get out!

[@Swagglehaus]

Haha thanks, great to be here.

[@lifeisgood2776]

Finally something to watch! 😘🤣🤣🤣

[@bladebuildermike]

Dude that is a great book! Very jealous. Congratulations! I’d love to get some of those pre code horror books. They’re just so expensive. Again, congratulations and keep that content coming.

[@dericplummer9272]

Your book looks awesome! Cant wait to see the final product.

[@cclouse14]

This was a fun video. I've always loved the horror genre and the precode comics. One day I'll get my hands on some of these. Congrats on your pickup!

[@patriotcomics]

Congrats on the amazing PCH grail! Also, your comic book looks awesome! I will definitely be purchasing a copy once it’s released!

[@Swagglehaus]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@comiccollector3225]

@@Swagglehaus Question Mr. Swaggle. As a hypothetical, if this comic does well would you consider publishing a comic (or series) that is similar to silver/bronze age superhero style. I think that there is definitely still a market for that among adults who read comics as kids, and for younger kids who are into graphic novels. I can see it now the new marvel age of comics Swaggy Comix Co.

[@panelsandplatters]

Looking forward to seeing the Kickstarter for your comic. Definitely interested. Great pick up on the PCH too. Great cover.

[@Swagglehaus]

Thanks! Will def keep you guys posted

[@brianward1213]

Definitely let us know....I would love to support anything you do 👍

[@Swagglehaus]

Awesome thank you!

For a second thought I was watching Ryan at Automatic Comics. Congrats, nice book.

[@Swagglehaus]

hahaha

[@lylehopson9573]

Woohoo, very nice comic, hard to find indeed, congratulations

[@cocoscomics5544]

Oh damn that’s sick. I’m interested.

[@Swagglehaus]

w00t!

[@michaelsaritelli]

Cool announcement. You have lots of fans, I hope "we" step up for you. I will have my $charole ready. Salute!

[@Swagglehaus]

w00t! Thanks :D

[@kurtcruppenink6143]

Welcome aboard! You are in sync with many collector's who each have that certain cover that appeals to them. It can be so many things. Some like skull covers, spider covers, particular artists, etc. I must admit that every time I purchase a silver or bronze age book I ask myself what precode or golden age comic I could have bought. You did nab a beauty. Love the purple cover too.

[@Swagglehaus]

Thanks!

[@Saboten_Ken]

Congrats on getting your first PCH ! Very cool cover and matches your personality!!

[@Swagglehaus]

Thank you!

[@StratBurst92]

Amazing book and such a cool cover. I still have my EC Haunt Of Fear number 25 in CGC 5.0 I got many years ago. It actually looks to me better than a 5.0 grade.

[@lifeisgood2776]

Seriously I've been hoping you especially would get into pch because now you will probably analyze every aspect of it for us! A few people try but they are so dry about it....well its almost unwatchable! This is supposed to be a compliment 🙄

[@Swagglehaus]

Would love to talk about them more, I'm planning to do a video collab for halloween with some people.

[@brianwarner5253]

Sweet. Your own comic. I've been kicking that idea around too. I look forward to seeing that journey.

[@Swagglehaus]

Thank you!

[@purecomiccollector]

You didn't need a PCH book to be a real collector in my book Swagg but congratulations amigo!!!! That's a beautiful high grade book!!!!

[@Swagglehaus]

hehe i know, i'm just being a bit facetious :P

[@ronhobbs463]

I own a Chamber of Chills 19 in 7.0. Bought it raw for $95.60 off Ha in 2006. I also have a Venus 19. 19 is a great number in the hobby.

[@nuctech99m]

Definitely a great book, and I'll back your comic 100%

[@Swagglehaus]

w00t! Will keep you posted

Great pick-up Swag! Nice grade as well. I'd love to pick up some PCH as well one day. Funny video, too.

[@Swagglehaus]

Thanks!

[@robertditaranto7568]

Very cool Swagg! Interestingly, I'm sending out a Weird Terror #3 (1953) to CGC next week for clean, press, grade, and slab. I'm very curious to see how it grades, not many copies on gocollect. Wish me luck!

[@Swagglehaus]

Nice! Fingers crossed for sure, be sure to report back with what you get

[@jimrivett9926]

Congratulations on acquiring your Chamber of Cills book. Looking forward to hearing more on your own comic book venture.

Gorgeous looking book Swag! I’ve been on the hunt for PCH myself but they are so difficult to find!💪🏽🔥

[@wylier]

If u have trouble tracking down the originals, reprints are readily available. The entire EC library, for example. Gasp... good lord... choke! :-)

[@JC-dg6vo]

Nice! Congratulations. 🥳

Thank you! 😁

Pre-code horror is the next genre of comics I’ve been studying. I should be adding some to my collection in the near future.

Thank you!

[@doctorshawn3461]

These PCH books seem pretty cheap compared to Marvel/DC books of the same age. Also, congrats on writing your comic book! Have you ever thought about not coloring the book and leaving it black and white? might give it a unique quality that separates it from others.

[@Swagglehaus]

My particular copy is relatively "cheap" compared to some of the other ones out there. We did consider keeping it black and white, but I think a bit of an edgy color scheme is where we are landing.

[@chrishinkle1764]

I guess Ryan was asleep at the wheel the day you bought that book. Seems like the kind of thing he would snap up.

[@Swagglehaus]

Haha full transparency I told him not to bid on it 😁❤. He would have

[@tonymiles273]

Like yourself, I love silver and bronze age books. However there is one PCH comic that I have my eye on. If/when I pull the trigger I'll let yo know. Just want to keep which book "close to the vest " until I secure the book.

[@Swagglehaus]

haha smart man! With these GA books you kinda can't hype them up to much :P. Def keep me posted

[@lylehopson9573]

Let us know when this comic comes out,I'd like a few copies

[@Swagglehaus]

Will def keep you posted!

[@RW77777777]

it's a different formula (to determine pricing) when you plan to hang the book in a prominent place compared with say, something that will never see the light of day again until your death

[@Swagglehaus]

fair point for sure

[@raleighcomicbookcollector]

I'd be interested in a copy or 10. If I buy 10 will you and the artist sign 8 of the copies?

[@Swagglehaus]

For sure! I'll have to figure out some tiers for the campaign.

[@ComicCollectorGeek]

Lee Elias...I always mess up the pronounciation but his name would be E-LIE-AS. He is a great artist. I have a bunch of his covers.

[@Swagglehaus]

Oh is that how its read? hehe, I just remember the hockey player Patrick Elias and say it like that out of habit.

[@rocketfighter8]

Your comment on people getting a Chamber of Chills #19 tattoo gave me an idea for a tag video. If you had to choose a tattoo for your upper arm, which comic book cover would it be?

[@Swagglehaus]

hmm that would be fun!

[@rocketfighter8]

@@Swagglehaus Which cover tattoo would you get? (Darkhawk #!)? 🤔

Nice! Dope cover. I love the COC covers but when it comes to reading the stories I think EC books really are a step above but I'd love to get a few of these books I have a Tales From the Crypt 33, the Crypt Keeper origin which is a great and hilarious book :)

[@Swagglehaus]

Yeah I did actually read this book online and the stories were hit and miss :P
