Joining The Boards

I just wanted to say hello to everyone that writes journals. I have always enjoyed reading what everyone else collects. Although I'm new here I'm not new to the world of collecting comics. So I'm not a stranger to everyone here's some basic info on me: I've been collecting comics most of my childhood but didn't seriously start collecting until around 1993-94.

Mostly what I bought was copper age and modern age books. A few bronze age books here and there.

I starting sending books to CGC when they first opened and boy did that change me a lot. Not only was my grading off, but I just love the look of my books in CGC slabs.

In 2003 I took a leave of absence from collecting comics. Not that I wanted to, but at the time I had too. In 2012 I started collecting again. I look forward to rebuilding my CGC collection. Everyone has such amazing sets, I just wish I had the funds to do that. I've been enjoying reading and learning you can never learn enough my mother always told me and she was right! I am excited to dive into this community and be apart of it as we move forward.

Happy comic book collecting everyone!!
