former wife - "hey let's get a divorce", followed by "give me half the cost basis of those comics"

me - "you can have half the comics, that's the deal"

she - "uhhh...pass"

this truly happened to me

 

present wife - "what is CGC thinking?  that book should be a 9.0, not an 8.0!!!"

this truly happened to me

"I mean, how many comics do you HAVE to look at?" She said in hour 2 of Baltimore Comicon.

She’s never said a bad word about my collection. My wife doesn’t really understand it but has tagged along for an afternoon to check out the Cosplay at a local show. Her favourite character is She Hulk because she also practices Law.

it helps that you actively try to keep your collection manageable. I wonder what her reaction would be if you had 40 long boxes in the basement.

I came home from work to find my entire comic collection gone. When I asked her what happened she said:

"for far to long YOU have been wasting time and money. I had some help today and I have thrown your comics away. YOU need to learn about what is important in your life."

Let me know if there is a prize and if I win.

"I collect stamps, so I cut one out of this random Hulk issue: #181" That's not a #1 ,so it's not an important issue, right?"

No biggie!

 

 

 

(PS-- no Hulk 181's were harmed for this MVS image)

that would be a waste of time. The only person that can show her anything is herself.

it was the collection I acquired starting at age 5 until in my 20's. Back then you bought the book you found in hand as there was no internet. They were not minty copies but I had a lot of books. AF15, Spidey 1 to 200, Hulk 1-6, Avengers, etc.
