Captain Marvel Adventures for sure.

Wow, I'm sorta fascinated by the concept of ToyBoy. Is he paraplegic? A Tony Stark-like child prodigy?

That is completely beautiful. My goodness.

The Comic Warehouse in Brooklyn is Closing

He's one of the owners/investors in Forbidden Planet in NYC so will still be involved in comics. -

You get a tour when you go in (if you like), where they tell you were Indies are, graded comics are, TPBs are, etc... -

Have you ever read Konga's Revenge, tough guy?? How do you know Konga and the giant lizard monster he fights on the cover don't end up in a committed relationship? -
Reading over brunch that Koch's Comics Warehouse in Brooklyn is closing soon, I rushed in the rain today and was glad I did. I'd read differing things about the pricing but had nothing but a great experience; everything in the warehouse is 20% anyway but Mr. Koch himself was delightful and priced things so low- I got some decent Silver Age romance for under $10 and an Atlas Era Romance with Colletta cover (obviously aping Robert Mitchum) for $15. Was well worth a visit before it closes. Get there if you can! The legendary Koch Comics Warehouse is closing soon (comicsbeat.com)

Nothing new here for those who know, but thought this was a well written article so wanted to share. https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/policy/economy/953546/the-crash-of-1993/ "Once upon a time comic books were ubiquitous and worthless. Sold in drugstores for a dime during the 1930s and ’40s, they were fun, pulpy reading for kids and youths. Issues were printed by the hundreds of thousands—even a million for the top titles—and then read, passed around in classrooms, locker rooms, and barracks, and eventually thrown away. A few odd ducks collected the things for pleasure, but this barely amounted to so much as a hobby. Over the years the appeal of comics narrowed somewhat, but the audience grew more intense as it shrank. Specialty shops appeared that sold nothing but comic books. By the mid-1980s, a brisk collectors’ market existed."

Market projections...sell now or wait it out?
LazySundayComics replied to UncleAnwar's topic in Comics General
There are new comic collectors. They just aren't part of the generation or circuit that came up reading Comic Book Marketplace and stuff. I don't say that to defend them; I find the collectors I'm referencing to be largely obnoxious. I'm talking about the wealth of uninformed and obviously somewhat new to the hobby collectors who all feel the need to have a YouTube channel. And hey, I'm not down on new collectors. I basically just think if you're new and don't know the deal, you shouldn't be broadcasting your ignorance online. But there's a community of these collectors that go to yard sales and thrift stores trying to find comics and film it and they seem endless though some are more successful than others. Even I started a channel but quickly lost interest as I knew my exploits looking for old Patsy Walkers weren't gonna interest anybody else. But the YouTube collector subculture is thriving. They will keep buying. -
She worked for Marvel. She did an issue or two of the FF (a very popular panel of the Hulk reading a newspaper and declaring everyone stupid is drawn by Fradon), and did The Cat and I believe a couple of other stories too. She didn't like the Marvel Method, feeling the artists were writing the stories. Also, Stan wasn't that involved in the comics during the period she wrote; I know Roy Thomas was a fan of her work and that is who brought her in. And she was a Superstar.

What are you willing to do to fund your comic collecting hobby?
LazySundayComics replied to jpepx78's topic in Comics General
You could get a coffin designed and built to replicate a 10.0 CGC case. -
Kerry Callen is AMAZING. I see all the commissions and stuff and wish one of the Big 2 would sign him up ASAP!

Only for the perks! Here is my record collecting IG, which is more active than the comics IG though I might get back to that if people are thrilled by random Golden to Bronze Age panels... Ali (@revolutions_per_ali) • Instagram photos and videos

i read a recent article on Ayers that was really depressing, right here: “What about the Darlin’ One?” How Ayers was blacklisted and slandered by Marvel – Four Color Sinners (wordpress.com)

LazySundayComics replied to jpepx78's topic in Comics General
In my case, my job has the dreaded mandatory overtime. So when that occurs, I just rationalize it by thinking I can splurge on some more higher grade Silver Age, and it makes it more bearable! -
Was hopeful for more in the new Mad Max universe. Since lost interest. Maybe Clea can salvage the next Dr Strange flick!
