  1. Hey One and All,

     

    As promised, if this works, here is my 'Man Cave'...

    Here’s an overview of my humble collection:

     

    I have over 11,500 comics – and only one is slabbed. My collection includes such delights as X-Men 1 – 10, X-Men 94, and GS 1, ASM 50, ASM 129, Hulk 181, Daredevil 1, Marvel Premier 15, Iron Fist 14 and Dark Knight Returns original signed hardcover GN to name a few. I do have around 99% of my comics listed on excel, but the comics are filed randomly in the boxes – this, when I have time, will be corrected so I can actually find stuff.

     

    There are 45 lithographs and posters, a highlight being a Battle of the Planets lithograph signed and remarked by Alex Ross – limited to 12

     

    I have about 25 statues and 50 busts (all boxed) mainly Bowen Designs

     

    There are action figures hidden one of the large boxes and some on shelving

     

    I own three pieces of original art work, again not on display

     

    My other ‘vice’ is collecting David Gemmell books and I have all his hardback books 1st printings, many signed. These are tucked away in another room.

     

    My aim is to get a larger room, so I can display my ‘stuff’ (as my wife calls my collection), but I am just happy with what I have – or rather that’s all the space she will let me have.

     

    Cheers,

     

    Oh, and I will try and donwload some samples of my comics :grin:

     

  2. Hey X-Men #1 Club,

     

    I have a question seeking opinions please...

     

    I own a raw X-Men #1, mid grade - around 5.5-ish (I think and low because of marvel chipping - I understand the CGC peeps do not like marvel chipping - oh well). Anyhow, my question is this - my copy is Pence copy, i.e. UK issue - how do you feel about pence copies?

     

    Cheers,

  3. Dear All who have posted here,

     

    I am new to this message board, but have been reviewing this topic for a few months now as a guest - only just managed to get myself up and running.

     

    I would like to say I am extremely impressed with many of your 'Man Caves' and if there are any (my memory is bad) 'Gal Caves'.

     

    My humble room is a converted garage (before you think wow what a space, hey I live in Jersey UK Channel Isles and our garages can JUST about fit a car - if you do not want to get in or out when parked) containing 11,000-ish comics, statues, bust, lithographs, (none on display due to lack of room) and fantasy books. I will get some pictures and try to post over the weekend.

     

    Oh and before you ask no there are no comic shops on the island and very few other collectors - so being able to geek out on the forum will suit me to the ground.

     

    Cheers,

     

    Oh, and I have still to figure out how you guys get your flash signature - which are also very cool
