That's a sweet book, but not a newsstand.

Are prices still climbing or have they eased up a bit???
Jesse-Lee replied to InfantTerrible's topic in Comics General
From a collector standpoint, I wonder how many of us had our love for comics cemented at a very early age by a trusted adult (parent, grandparent, aunt/uncle, etc.)? I know that was the case for me - I loved the super hero cartoons, but when my grandpa shared with me a box of comics that belonged to him and my dad, I was hooked, and I stayed hooked. I was also a voracious reader as a kid (and still am). I lost interest in collecting over the years, but I never got rid of the books I had as a kid, and when I came back into the hobby, I was all-in. I've tried to instill the love of comics into my own kids, but they never really cared about them - and they barely care about the movies either. Now that they're teenagers, I don't think they'll really ever get bitten by the collecting bug. I think it takes more than just liking the movies and characters - it seems like there has to be a connection made in the formative years that ultimately draws someone into the hobby. -
That's all for tonight, thanks!
