The more things change…

[ChrisInBaltimore]

Change the price tag, and it just happened:

 

 

It also makes you wonder about that whole time machine thing…

 

It also makes you wonder about that whole comics as long term investment thing …

 

PS: This is from a 1974 issue of Kamandi I was reading.

[kav]

YAY KAMANDI!!

And reading!!! People should read their comics.

Do people here not read comics? I have a table in my living room covered in 3 stacks of books and a short box under it. I'm constantly reading comics.

 

Right now it is covered in issues of 52 as I bought a run recently. I've got 10 issues of silver Spideys in the front of the short box as I've been re-reading that run. Then the issues of Kamandi are in the box too. There are a few moderns mixed in to the stack too.

[kav]

Some people just deal in slabs or dont read em

I'm like you I constantly have a stack of comics to read.

SA books never get old and BA Kirby.

[Mr 9.8]

Love reading comics.

[kav]

I just finished re reading my kirby thors and FF, marvel masterworks avengers rawhide kid and Venus, challengers of the unknown.

Reread Demon and am reading perez wonder woman and titans, and SA superman family.

[ChrisInBaltimore]

I've read pieces of Lee/Kirby's FF run. After reading Kamandi, I think it is time I invested in one of the Masterworks and read the entire run.

 

I almost regret selling all the books from the estate sale over the summer as there was a good chunk of the 40-60 run of FF.

[kav]

Chris you can compile a collection of marvels greatest comics/collector item classics/marvel triple action 1,2,3 fairly cheaply and the reading experience is superior to the masterworks.

[retrothecollector]

Never learned how to read.

[Columbia Comics]

Pretty sure that article is referencing Mitch's purchase of the Action 1

[MetalPSI]

I like reading TPB's

 

Slabs I have are all comics I already own, or have read in my childhood.

[kav]

I love the newsprint/single issue thing but masterworks are also cool

[Speedy-D]

I don't read comics.

[MetalPSI]

I don't read comics.

 

That's because you have read so many you have BECOME comics

[Ken Aldred]

I read a lot of trade paperback and hardcover collections, covering Golden Age through to moderns.

[comicdonna]

Generally, I don't read comics. I like to collect GA for the cover art, combined with owning something old and rare.

[jaeldubyoo]

There was a time when I could say I read all my comics. Those days have long passed. More like 20 years ago. I've mostly been accumulating since.

[RockMyAmadeus]

I don't read comics.

 

Comics read you.
