Guns, ammo, potable water/canned goods, and lots of gasoline. Mark my words. The zombie apocalypse is nearly upon us.

The way it's been lately, I'd have to go with AF15.

 

That thing is on freaking fire in all grades and seems to have no ceiling. I've seen some truly fugly copies sell within an hour of being posted for VERY good prices. I don't know about all grades but I know the two grades I was interested in (4.0 and 7.0) are both going for like 50% higherv and more than they were just about 18 months ago

Ohhh, when you said precious metal I thought you meant my Stryper album collection.

Precious metals are something you buy when you're pessimistic and worried about the value of your paper currency. If things get that bad then AF 15s will be used to light the fire in your fireplace on cold nights when you don't have any oil and/or electricity.

 

AF 15s are something you buy when you are optimistic about the future and believe that people will continue to have money to spend on collectibles.

Both only have value because there are people crazy enough to think they have value.

 

Not too many people have to die and the earth doesn't have to be despoiled while mining copies of AF15 so stick with that.

What about the trees it takes to make comics?

Absolutely true.

Absolutely true.

 

That is true about everything, though.

 

People put a monetary value on everything and the more people that agree, the more monetarily valuable something becomes.

Well, it's actually healthy for the environment to cut some trees down.

The trees it took to make AF #15 have likely been reforested and grown back by now.
