    Have you ever thought to yourself when you first started collecting "What am I getting myself into?"....
    Have you ever thought to yourself when you first started collecting "What am I getting myself into?".... I've never liked being the new guy (but who really does?). I've just started collecting BATMAN (1940s)comics and love it so far.
    In the course of two months I've managed to collect issues 400-708 (which is the current issue). As I reach the lower numbers I have learned that this is where it really turns into a different type of "game". My goal is to eventually collect all of the Batman (1940s) comics and hopefully be able to get the key issues graded.
    I should be trying to go slow and take my time with collecting but whenever I'm buying someplace I just want to get them all.
    So my many props are given to all of you that have been collecting for a long time. If you have any tips for me please feel free to help out! I hope to learn more from you all.

    As Time Passes

    By Wayne Enterprises,

    2011 is on its way out...
    The year is almost ending and it's just about a year that I started collecting comics. Mistakes were made, money was spent, but in all I'd call it a great experience. (sounds weird)
    After being on this site and learning from everyone I feel I'm ready to go out there come 2012 and make wise decisions and improve on collecting. As the time passes I'm sure I'll learn the ropes and be able to have an amazing collection as most of you do! Can't wait to see more of your collections! Good luck in 2012, I will return with some GA/SA Batman!!

    Today....
    ...I decided to scan all my books and just make my registry sets just more organized! It definitely helps as a list and makes me feel competitive!
    I got my first ribbon as well on the Batman & Robin (2011) set, even though there's only two other sets on the registry. (I'm not even really trying to collect Batman & Robin books though) But still happy about the ribbon! Off to more organizing and collecting! Thanks for reading!

    Never ever!
    I just got greedy and decided to send in three books to possibly get grade bumps and ended up with grade reductions!! Damn myself for wanting to be greedy! The books were....
    1) Batman 227 9.0 --- now an 8.5
    2) Batman 232 9.2 --- remained the same.
    3) Batman 234 9.2 --- now a 9.0
    Now I have to decide to try and be greedy/lucky and send the books back to see if they come back the original way I sent them or just stay with what I'm getting back.
    Fml. I guess the only way to truly learn is by making mistakes.
