Why I collect...
What is it about collecting comic books that attracts us to the hobby?
People often ask me as a 37 year old, why I collect comics? Well, to me I find different reasons in this. One - I love the Silver age. I love opening a issue and observing the publishing date and can't help but wonder who else has read this issue. The fact that all the storylines from this era paved the way for what collectors read today. Two - The stories are timeless. Would Stan Lee realize that all the time he put into establishing Jean Grey's life, that she would die years later. Or Roy Thomas know that Hank and Janet would eventually seperate the way they did. The evolution over the years has been amazing to read. Three - I love the adds. Hypnotize your friends, Own the 50 ft Frankenstein, or Be like Charles Atlas. They are classic and a great portal into the past.
