Mercury Man

Accumulated a lot...sold it. Missed it. Accumulated a lot again...sold it. Missed it. Accumulated a lot again...sold it. Missed it. Rinse and repeat.

It will crash when the Golden Age crashes.

I fall into the 'not caring' camp.

Shops around these parts are getting harder and harder to find Silver/Bronze in the back issue bins. It's either a wall book or Modern now.

So you're saying I'm 350.....

I hate that the word KEY gets thrown around so easily in comic collecting these days. Ebay is rife with it. I remember at a show there was a vendor selling a Power Man issue (I believe #25), and he had some asinine price on it, because it was a 'KEY' 2nd appearance of Black Goliath.

Just a thought....Edgar Church never slabbed anything, and his books turned out pretty good.

Pictures or it never happened.

As a youth, I was more of a 'Peacemaker'. I would always break up fights on the playground. I also tried to avoid getting into fights. Fast forward, to early 1990's. I was in a bar in Chicago, loud music, silly string type of place. Suddenly a fight breaks out, I go jump in the middle to pull apart people, and a knife went flying through the air. I think that was my last attempt at breaking up a fight.

Been awhile since I looked at this thread. I only have 2 titles on my pull list. Daredevil and Captain America. Currently buying the Iron Man title which is pretty good so far, and may add it. However the days of me having 10-12 titles on my monthly pull list is over.

Why don't you just buy this for $69. By time you pay for a press and a re-slab, and still a lesser grade, this would make more 'cents' https://www.ebay.com/itm/Batman-567-CGC-8-5-1st-Appearance-of-Cassandra-Cain-Batgirl-Birds-of-Prey-DC/133497037053?epid=85462752&hash=item1f150b20fd:g:Fd4AAOSwAx1fPB51

Shogun Warriors ROM

Daredevil- Kingpin? Bullseye? Owl? Elektra (not villain but a fine antagonist) Cap- Zemo? Crossbones? all the Hydra goons? Adolf himself??

I've always found Superman more interesting than Bats from an overall character standpoint, for the reasons you put out there.

1960's DC was Lawrence Welk. 1960's Marvel was Rock N' Roll.

Hindsight. Worst Character ever! Although looking back on it now....

Whooooaaaa....Almost forgot!

What are we talking about again?

Never hated Kirby. I remember one of the first comics I ever bought off the 7/11 rack, was a Captain America 197. Looking at the art, even back then, I could tell there was something about his style, that made him unique.

It's officially....

I thought about picking up #1, as I love the first few movies, but reading this thread, I am kind of glad I didn't.

34?!

Well the title of this thread is : My experience with fractional ownership of comics: JIM #83 / $215,000 So there are people putting money into this thinking they have a 'fractional ownership'. I don't think everybody putting money into this even knows what they are buying.
