Is there a market for Western comics any more?

Comic stores for vintage in El Cerrito / Berkeley area
DavidTheDavid replied to DavidTheDavid's topic in Comics General
I only had time to meet one person and connected here with @HouseofComics.Com on my way to the airport on my final day in the area. That recommendation was the hookup for sure so thanks for that tip @shortboxed and @707comics. Marc is a great guy who I wish I'd had more time to listen to as I could quickly tell he's got a wealth of comic info that's new to me. I found a few westerns, some pretty war comics, and a hobo Captain Marvel comic. But I'm probably most tickled that he had some high grade, late-run Weird War Tales that push me several copies closer to a full run. Attractive prices, too, so I felt like I got a lot of bang for my buck. It was a great way to end a fun trip. If I'm lucky, I'll get to attend GDC again next year and can make an annual visit out of Marc's goodies. Definitely recommend others visiting the area to send him some want lists. -
It's 1982 and you have $100 to spend on back issues

What would you NOT buy from that list? -

I'm there tomorrow to Friday. An appointment won't work for my schedule at this point. I'll look into King's Comics. Thanks for the replies, folks. -
Weird War Tales ticks a lot of collector boxes for me. Kubert, DC war, DC horror, and a better appreciation of the series as an adult. So these are the latest run contributions. So many more to go....

Any Californians know where to send me? I'll be there a few days, but I've got time to visit probably just one place. I'm interested in the city's historical importance as a collecting and hobby hub but mainly would love to find somewhere that sold the sort of things I just don't find in the Nashville area.

I corralled another one, fellers. I improved the white in these scans just because it abets the fantasy that I am holding a copy fresh off the press. Regardless, it has nice cover composition and a really interesting palette to depict this bold, soon-to-be-bloody hunting scene in the old west. Thanks @oceans11. -
Okay, that I love.

Got some nicely graded, fairly priced comics shipped straight to my door. Good all around, thanks!

Bought a nice western from Don, good transaction all around. Thanks, sir!

The current state of the comic book market
DavidTheDavid replied to fastballspecial's topic in Comics General
I see this tpb play out on reddit. People show off their trades and collected editions, even referring to them as their collection. To me that’s odd, but hey, to each his own. -

gadzukes hooked me up. Really nice interiors, and the Rangers especially have some really clean, glossy covers.
