That is a great story! But very different, their leader who is also in a wheelchair, has a beard.

Also, the Doom Patrol’s Brotherhood of Evil, not to be confused with the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants.

Also, Doom Patrol's 1st cover states "The World's strangest Heroes"  vs X-men 1's "The Strangest Superheros of All! "

Sooooooo.... 

Apparently my idea is looked down upon by quite a few people.

I am one of the few people at work that has not gotten sick.   I had proposed an idea where the remainder of those that have not ever had covid put $50 into a pool.  The last person to be covid free collects 75% with the runner up to get 25%.  If there is more than one person by the end of the year the pot is divided by those who remain. 

 

 

Do you get double if everyone croaks?

The leader has a  beard, it's COMPLETELY different!

Taking the investment side for it away. I’d go FF5. Doom and the FF4 are much more iconic than the mutants in my humble opinion.

How is it that the FF always seem like such an institution, while the X-Men always seem like a much newer, fresher property, created last Friday? Is it the constantly changing rosters? The number of books? What is it?

It's a coin flip.  Both are excellent books to own.

X-men = Fantastic Four's stepbrother

When you think the xmen are a bunch of rejects... the Doom patrol has it just as bad if not worse...I doubt any kid ever dreams of being any of those superheroes growing up.

Get out

[Dale Roberts]

The hero books are always the way to go. FF 5 is a tremendous book though. Keep the FF #5, and figure out a way to get the X-Men #1 is your best option. 

[speedcake]

Ya imo sell much more replaceable stuff and/or things you wont miss if you don't replace them, until you can buy an X-Men #1.  And keep the FF #5

hope you pulled the trigger. the idea of xmen1 dropping was short lived. strong results on all grades yesterday on comiclink, including this nice 4.0 copy that closed just under 20k. white pages didnt hurt.

That's a nice copy.  Will be interesting to see if it rebounds as the equity market begins its decline.  The fed increasing interest rates in March will pound down stocks.
