skillzdadirecta Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 As a lot of you know I'm a pretty serious comic collector and have a collection of thousands of comics dating back to when I started as a kid in the 80's. I've recently started buying key issues online at auctions and I'm getting pretty serious about buying and selling comics as I get them. If any of you guys have any old comics you want to sell, I'm interested in talking to you. I know some of you guys collected when you were younger but probably stopped. I'm mostly interested in books from the 70's and 80's (I started collecting seriously in the late 80's and missed out on a lot of books prior to that) anything from good to near mint condition and I'm willing to pay fair prices. If you guys want to discuss, you can post here or hit me with a direct message. I'm also down to trade as well... I have a few copies of some key issues as well that I'm willing to part with.

SoberChef Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 In terms of my collection, I really only kept a handful of Spidey & X-Men titles from the 80's & 90's (full runs Web & Spectacular Spider-Man as well as G.I. Joe A Real American Hero!) It wasn't until around the Geoff Johns Green Lantern run I began collecting for a few years again thereafter with my tastes veering more towards Image/IDW than anything.

I probably have most of the Xmen books but I'd be willing to discuss. Any idea what condition they're in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same with you... I'd definitely be interested in those Spidey books. I have a fair amount of the Marvel GI joe books but not a full set.

Bacon Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 The only comic books I own are Gears of War comics. And only like 3 or 4 plus a graphic novel in two parts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyser_Soze Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 I have old comics, like Super Patriot and a bunch of image comics and mad magazines and cracked magazines. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emblazon Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 I've got some really good ones: Spectacular Spider-Man #1 Captain America featuring first appearance by Punisher Spawn #1 An old Brave & the Bold featuring Batman and Robin First appearance of Carnage Death of Superman in the sealed black baggy And a number of others I can't think of right now. I also have a massive amount of Garbage Pail Kids cards. I have an Adam Bomb in mint condition. Very tempted to send it off to get graded.

I'm pretty sure I have that one. Frank Miller did the cover I think... I was heavy into the Punisher in high school and tracked down most of his appearances before he got his own book that I could afford. I also have his first meetings with Daredevil, Moon Knight and Wolverine. Let me know if you're willing to part with any of these... I'm definitely interested in that Spactacular Spiderman and that Brave and Bold. I just went to a comic store in downtown Raliegh to get some comics for my nephews who have expressed an interest and spent an hour digging through their impressive stock of back issues. They were a little over priced for a lot of books that were basically dollar bin books but I DID find a steal... John Walker's first appearance in an old issue of Captain America. They had it for 3 bucks and that book can go for as high as 250 in the right condition. I'm not sure if I have this book or not in my collection, most of my books pre-2008 are in storage in NJ. I grabbed it anyway. If I had the room, I would invest in a comic press for restoration but my apartment is over crowded enough with shit. When I buy a house in the next year or two I will definitely invest in one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
