estimate the percentage of your collection that is Marvel, DC, other

86 posts in this topic

45% Marvel

35% DC

20% Other

The other is mostly Gold Key and Charlton.

 

While they may not have cost as much (they still were not cheap), some of the Gold Key super hero / action #1 issues were the hardest ones to acquire. Go see what you can find in high grade on eBay or the next big comic con in the way Magnus, Solar or Lost in Space first issues.

I cannot even guestimate the numbers...

 

I know I have more Marvel than Valiant and DC combined.

I know I have more Valiant than DC

I know that I have 8 boxes of slabs and 14 short boxes of raw books

This amounts to about 2500 books

This does not count a shelf of hardcover collections.

Biggest run - the full ASM run which probably accounts for about half of everything

Marvel 50%

DC 30%

Other 20%

 

DC is mostly what I buy any more, as it was not what I collected as a kid - now I'm trying to catch up doh!

I can't help it....this sounds like a question on the GRE or some other college entrance exam.
