Out of all your picks I believe FF#5 and FF#48 still have a lot more room to grow and the market still hasn't caught up to its potential. All the others while very popular have more or less leveled out. Action Comics #242 (Brainiac ) is another good choice because of its scarcity and his potential as a character.
@WeLoveComics6 жыл бұрын
Although I do not agree, I guess we will have to wait and see... Hulk 181 has definitely not peaked. Some books will flat-line for a little while, maybe even 2 to 5 years, but in the long haul, these all will see increases... It took NM98 and ASM 300 decades before they became relevant.... But I do appreciate you sharing your opinions, keep up the good work, it is appreciated here :).

Excellent video. I knew what your top two books would be. I would also suggest NYX 3, the first appearance of X 23, and Iron man 55, the first appearance of Thanos. I think Thanos is really hot right now.
@WeLoveComics6 жыл бұрын
He is definitely hot right now, but that is the key... Right now... :). I really think after he is defeated in the next movie (Which of course will be a given), that book will cool off like most villains do.... Ultron was hot at one point, not any more. Apocalypse was as well, now you can get them cheap. So be very careful about when you pick your comics because the last time you want to buy a book is at their peak. Plus most villain characters tend to never appear in movies once they have been used (There are of course exceptions).... So be careful. X23 is another gamble because again, it is near its peak and we don't know if Marvel (If they get her rights) will use her or use her correctly. So to me, that book buying it now is a gamble with not much wiggle room. I bought a 9.8 years ago for $325. that book now is around $900. I would not pay that price for that book. Too risky. But I do appreciate your thoughts and hope you don't think I was trying to insult. I am just telling you from a perspective of how to save or make the most money out of an investment. Thank you again Eric, I hope to hear from you in future videos.

There used to be (early to mid or late 80's) a comic and science fiction convention called Creation that was probably in 4-5 locations around the US. Used to go to most of the downtown Los Angeles ones. Anyway, at one show I picked up a couple Hulk 181's within a few minutes. I think the first was for about $12 and another was about $8. The dealer at the second table asked what I paid for the first copy and they said they should raise their price but I told her that I was going to buy it and she said, "okay but if you don't, I'm going to raise the price". I'm guessing they're F-VF and should have them graded. Back then, you could pick up a IH #180 for practically nothing as many didn't know of that appearance in the last panel.

Wish i purchased it 2 and half decades ago when most of these vintage comics were affordable. But I do own a Amazing Spiderman #14 and the Avengers #4. I purchased those back in mid 2000 around the $400 range. Also i have Young Avengers #1. I bought that for the cover price. That was a steal !! My favorite book is Batman #251.

I own (ready for this?) a complete set of marvel value stamps, series 1 and series 2 and a blank (empty) marvel value stamp book series 1. CGC won't grade a marvel value stamp book that has stamps taped or glued into the book, so I could theoretically get a grade on the empty one. A side note, I checked the stamp that would have come from Hulk 181, and the back of the stamp does not match the back of the page from 181, remember stamps from series 1 did not only come from a single issue. (A side note, yes, there are 200 comics that have missing cut out stamps that I was personally responsible for)

Funny thing, I have Starbucks stalk, which over the last 5 years has only produced a rate of return (or percentage of growth) at 3%. I just took 100 dollars out of that stock and bought the full sets of Infinity Gauntlet and Infinity War for 60 bucks, so I am going to assume those books will increase in value at a much higher rate than what my Starbucks stock was giving me.

I have a New mutants 98 in CGC 9.8 which I bought raw for $200 just before the movie hit. I have the ASM 300 in CGC 9.6 which I also bought raw for around $200 about 4-5 years ago. I have the Batman adventures 12 It was CGC 9.0 but I recently cracked it and got it pressed. I know the FF 48 is worth more but I personally love FF 49 so much more "If This Be Doomsday" just because of a story from Fantastic four 391 I read as a kid when Sue, Johnny and Ben get transported back to the Galactus fight from FF 49 by the Watcher in a different time-line and they are forced to fight Galactus again. It's a really incredible last stand. (There's also a side story about Lyja and Johnny's baby hatching from it's egg and putting a beating on the avengers lol until she kills it.) I own 2 FF 49's both CGC 7.5 too but I don't have the FF 48 or 50 yet. I do have 3 Giant-Size X-Men 1's The best being a CGC 9.2 that should have been 9.4! it's flawless. The other two are CGC 4.5 and a CGC 6.0 both signed by Stan Lee I have the Hulk 181 and a Green Lantern 76 both CGC 9.0 and they are the crown jewels in my collection hands down.

Can someone help answer this question? I have so much problem with CGC new slabs. 8 out of 10 books shipped gets damaged with the book sliding in the case. The damages varies from front cover separating from staples, dent corners, fold edges and crack spine. Does anyone have any recommendations on how to deal with this serious CGC slab defects? Sooner or later CGC is going to get a class action lawsuit for their defective case.

Hey Ethan! Welcome to the community, little brother! I really could kick myself. Over the years I have had so many chances to buy New Mutants 98 and ASM 300, and it was always at a time when I had no money or was after another prize. In fact, I remember a couple of years before the Deadpool movie came out, you could find New Mutants in dollar boxes all over, and for whatever reason, I never grabbed it. You have definitely given me a list to work towards here. I definitely appreciate the knowledge I get here. Have a good weekend, my man!

As a bonus, you forgot Incredible Hulk vol. 1 # 182, which is Wolverine’s 2nd cameo appearance and still worth getting like issue 180. That means, technically, Giant-Size X-Men vol. 1 # 1 is his 4th appearance, but his 2nd full appearance. Not being nit-picky. Like you, I’m a very big collector and I’m pretty big on knowing their appearances both for the monetary and knowledge factors. 🙂 Good choices by the way. I have quite a few of those.

I agree with Chris though Spider Woman #1 definitely has potential. Then again in the early nineties when I was buying up Tomb of Dracula for a quarter a piece and then turned around and paid $10 for a number one I got laughed at. Those that remember it, probably aren't laughing now. I say buy what you like, collect what you like, the important thing is that you enjoy it, not that it's going to be the next 'hot' thing.

Hey Chris, I had a question about a comic I recently purchased and was wondering if you or anyone else in the comments could help me out. I purchased a copy of Amazing Spider-Man 101 recently on eBay, I’ve had the comic and looked it over and everything seemed good. After taking a second look at it the other night I noticed the cover had some fading on Spider-Man’s legs in the bottom right corner. After further inspection, I noticed that on the back of the cover, where his legs were faded, there was a red bleed exactly in the spots faded on the cover. My question is, would this be a failed restoration? I’m thinking someone may have taken a marker and filled in the faded spots and then it bled through to the other side. I would show pictures but I do not think I can in the comments. Just let me know what you think. Thanks!

Not sure, I would have to see it. It could also be a manufacturer error and the ink bled through. If that was the case, it would not be restoration. I would bring that to a local comic shop and have someone inspect it...

What's your opinion about The Infinity Gauntlet comic book issue 1 those cgc 9.8 what do you think has more cultural significance or is it even. Infinity Gauntlet or Thanos first appearance Iron Man 55? I'm wondering which book, I know books after 1990 were more mass-produced so of course the Iron Man first appearance of Thanos is going to be more rare of a book. Correctt me if I'm wrong of course The Infinity Gauntlet are going through the roof there like nearing double that's a given. Just wanted some advice, I think the Iron Man 55 aside from all the other key factors of that book is probably the biggest key book going around at the moment right now when you look at how successful Thanos introduction was onto the Silver Screen. Now we're talking his first appearance book who wee!
@WeLoveComics6 жыл бұрын
I think if you are going to get an infinity gauntlet book, I would recommend Silver surfer 44 (1st appearance of the gauntlet). I think the infinity gauntlet #1 has peaked in price at this point and will even out then eventually fade once the 2nd movie is over... I think if someone did not buy that book 2 years ago, they are going to over pay IMO.....Iron man 55 is the same thing. It is a great book but since everyone is talking about Thanos at this point, it is the worst time to buy a book... Again, it should have been purchased 2 years ago or more. People getting that book now will over pay. That book will retain its value but I don't see it doubling or anything close to that at this point. Sadly, many people buy things when it is at its peak and not when it is obscure.... The best time to get a book is when no one wants it.... The worst time is when everyone does... Hope that helps....
