A New Level in Comic Collecting?!?!

[sundrycollect]

This is totally ridiculous.

 

"Collector cards" made from hacked up silver age books. I especially like the "1/1" limited edition and the certified signature....sigh.

 

The seller says, "HERE IS AN AMAZING NEW PRODUCT THAT TAKES COMIC COLLECTING TO THE NEXT LEVEL With..."COMIC BOOK RELIC CARDS!"

 

Yeah...that's a new level alright!

This man is a comic book murderer

[toro]

What a great idea. If I did that too it would make my collection worth about

 

[Gotham Kid]

something else besides classic comics should be clipped.

[shadroch]

If he is doing this from ragged, beat up, coverless copies, I salute his ingenuity. If he is cutting up anything else, its a shame.

I personally don't think there is much of a market for single panels of most books.

"Have fun matching each clipping to your copy of the comic!"

 

I bought one and did this for over 3 hours last night.

 

It actually was a lot of fun and I'm going to do it again tonight for a couple of hours.

 

 

[shadroch]

Buy a few dozen and make your own story.

[makeminemego]

I'll bet this guy sympathized with the Doctor in the Human Centipede.....

Ya, I didn't Understand that.

cut out the middle man and buy in bulk -- fresh uncut comics, the latest trend in collecting.

[Atreides-migration]

This isn't an original idea. I'm sure you know official panel cards already exist in some Ultra Pro sets (like Marvel Beginnings).

This genious made personal panel cards! Can't think about a more useless collection!

 

This is my marvel Beginnings III panel card. It's from Daredevil #7:

Honestly, I have the same feeling when someone hacks up a book to sell loose pages... CGC'd, no less.

Yeah...that's a new level alright!

 

With so many books being slabbed, this might be the only way new collectors will ever experience interior art.

[paperheart]

would Stan's signature fit?

[That Ron Dude]

I imagine the person is six years old.

 

I can also imagine, someday, someone making a lot of money selling borders, acetate and backs with which a person can make an attractive card from any piece of paper.

It's not a bad use of incomplete coverless books.

If I had an incomplete coverless book, I could see taking a really good page and framing it...but a single panel...
