  1. Yes! I’ve dabbled in JIM and was surprised at the earlier (more rare) stuff there. Mighty Thor has a good presence. As I see where the market is moving I am surprised some of the rare stuff moves but at a slower pace. I like the older, more rare and still attainable stuff (so far). HOWEVER: JIM 83, which looks entirely awesome in all respects, takes $5k for a .5 grade. Gulp.
  2. Thanks, Dikran1! I felt like a little kid yesterday trying to get my arms around what to invest in. I understand, now, the sensitivities that come w/ a term like “investment funds”. A comic board on Reddit even banned me because I asked about what folks liked as investments today. So, I’ve slowed down and started watching YouTube posts about Fantastic Four, Galactica and Silver Surfer in particular. As you aptly surmised: The budget will need to increase if I’m to take some meaningful swings at this market! Is it taboo for me to start a new thread? I’d like to engage this group more with this newfound passion for Silver Age comics. A sponge of knowledge — like the grasshopper to Mr Miyagi (figured out how to change my public name… Looking forward to learning more!
  3. May I please have my post reviewed by a moderator? How does this work?? Edit: sorry for the confusion. A moderator needed to review my first post (above) because I just joined and it is a policy, it seems.
  4. I’m new to this board and trying to make sense of the obscene upward trajectory. What Silver Age Marvel work of art do I take a run at??? I have my preferences and boxes to check but these moving prices are insane. What would you informed folks do with $5k, in this space, right now???
  5. I found this thread to be extremely useful mainly because I would like to invest similar amounts. Really like the logic employed and the cool comics cited. Have the values really changed, this much, in less than two years??? Would love a re-boot of this topic because all the keys referenced are SKY HIGH now.
