I quit collecting...

[stuck]

...Silver age comics! Ive finally decided to take the plunge into GA. For my entire time spent collecting, I have never bought anything but Marvel silver age books, never bought one DC book and now thats all about to change! Cant fight it any longer, Im coming to the dark side and have decided my first GA book is either going to be an Adventure Comics #42 or #44. Cant get enough of he GA art and am waiting to find a Sandman cover I can all my own!

Its just a matter of time before they all follow suit, welcome aboard.

Great decision. I love SA but there is nothing like a classic GA cover.

[stuck]

Not quite there yet, but Im actively searching for the right book!

#44... Welcome aboard!

Just because you take up collecting GA doesn't mean you have to quit collecting SA (or any other genre).

I guess I used the wrong words, I should have said, my funds are heading in another direction...

[Dark Knight]

I'd say cover to cover, GA books are way better than SA, but story wise I'd say SA. Welcome to the GA thread. After I bought my first GA book (I was collecting SA back then) I never turned back

It's nice because after a while you start to accomplish many of your goals. But the rarity and price point of GA ensures there's pretty much only a small handful of people who can ever really have it all.

 

I'm happy to land a few nice ones per year in this end of the pool. Welcome board from one newb to another!

Adventure 42 or 44 are two incredible books and represent an ambitious start - good luck with the hunt, and welcome to the wonderful world of GA!

Nobody likes a quitter. SA books need love too.

 

Those Sandman issues are awesome books though and worth putting your SA collecting on hold for imo.

I'd say cover to cover, GA books are way better than SA, but story wise I'd say SA.

 

... true ... so long as the SA book is a Marvel book.

Its funny because I stopped collecting when I was like 15, 12 years later I bought my first book, and less than a year later I bought an AF15, while it was great to have,I felt like it took the excitement out of all the books I bought after it. GA has, just like you said, an assortment of books that keep the excitment alive.

you nailed it bro.

spoken by a man who obviously has not read the metal men series. tin was great!

I agree. All of my comic money goes to GA but I get my SA fix through the Marvel Masterworks (mostly) and DC Archives books.

GA is where it's at
