Greetings,
I am new to the CGC registry and to these forums. I was a collector of comics as a young kid collecting spawn and aliens and predators(I just aged myself).
So of course I bagged and boarded all my comics and put them in a box and sometime around my sophomore year of high school they were stored in my parents attic.
Fast forward, oh I don't know, about 15 years and said boxes are given back to me with grumblings about me having my own house so I can store my own (thanks mom). I of course had to look through the boxes..and I can not describe the feelings that came over me as I saw the covers of some of my favorite comics. I was 12 years old all over again...and HOOKED.
So I did what any self respecting nerd with addiction tendencies does. Start collecting! But as I am sure you are all aware just having the collection of books is not enough..they need to be graded, and signed and 100% complete! Thus I find myself here ready to absorb information like a bright eyed 12 year old reading his favorite comics. I look forward to the massive amount of guidance you all can offer as I step into the next phase of my comic collection!
Knowing my tendency to wan't to collect EVERYTHING I have decided (my wife has decided) that I will focus on a few smaller collections to get my feet wet. My first collection is the most cost effective one because I already had collected most of the books as a child. Being a big spawn fan I was of course IN LOVE with Angela. She was strong and awesome and beautiful and a red head! So yes I decided I must start with her. And I could hardly contain my glee when I found out she was ported to marvel and is soon to be Thor's sister!
So looking for any and all Guardians of the Galaxy #5 variants!
I am also collecting Batman New 52 (duh Greg Capullo), and some Constantine(hellblazer, swamp thing 37, new 52)
Thanks for reading!
