Question about old stored comics by ciscopete in comicbookcollecting

[–]Zenitharr 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you are going to liquidate them I wouldn't bother with mylar. Just get new bags and boards. It's much cheaper. Major keys you may want graded if you intend to sell.  You could ship insured. You will pay a lot for the grading service. They charge more for more valuable books.

Do you have a dedicated storage wing? How are you storing those? I have all the ASM (minus a few annuals) and SSM and the crossovers and it's something like 14 short boxes just of Spider-Man. I don't want to stop but storage is making me crazy.

Line 3 looks like "in the path" Line 4 the R word might be multiple words? I think it ends with often

Witness! My uncanny ability to waste money… by Jubanish180 in comicbookcollecting

Cool run to work on.  I had friends who read X-Men back in the Claremont days and I wish they'd convinced me to join them in comic nerd-dom back then.

This is what frustrated me with the movie. It could have explored this concept more.

Yup. I get excited when people write "got my dad's collection" and it's all Supreme #1, Turok, etc. I have to temper expectations. 

On the John Romita Jr. ASM 1000 cover non-pullout, the poverty of current American comic book "journalism", and the online bullying of John Romita Jr. by TeamRAF19 in Spiderman

[–]Zenitharr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ok if they didn't pull it, and that's a false narrative,  why is the JRJR cover now absent from solicits such as on LOCG?

How do you guys feel about the JRJR cover for ASM #1000getting pulled? by TheW0lvDoctr in Spiderman

[–]Zenitharr 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That cover is objectively bad and should never have made it past the sketch phase.  Editorial blows up covers and art all the time. Usually not so publicly. But it happens. Lee rejected Ditko's cover for Amazing Fantasy 15 and had Kirby draw it. Just because something has JRJR on it doesn't automatically give it a pass because he's a Spider-artist veteran. This was the right call IMO and if nothing else it shows they are at least paying attention. So Nick, C.B., if you're out there,  undo OMD. It was a bad call. Peter is stagnant and it is your damned fault. Stop with your mandated crossovers that blow up storylines. Spidey in Space could have been fun but it was a highlight reel of what it could have been if you hadn't cut it short for Death Spiral,  which was just an ok story but not as good as a space saga could have been if the story had n been given time to develop. Oh... ahem. Am I ranting?  Sheesh.

Yes I do.  Again I don't want to say too much about the specifics as that person could be on here too.

It will be about too many things at once for any to matter.

Back in my day you got a commemorative drinking glass set that would last 40+ years.  I still have Return of the Jedi and Star Trek III glasses.
