Popular Post musicmeta Posted May 17, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted May 17, 2023 Wolverine Limited...just need #4. Don't really have anything worth mentioning but all I got is Tales of Suspense 47-99 with several issues graded (47-50, 52,53, 57, 64,65, 71, 77..several others) Working on a Daredevil run have 9-301 and will try to get 1-8 fairly soon. Early issues are $$$. Captain Marvel 2-62 I believe..I'll have to verify as I might be missing one or two issues. Working on acquiring #1 in 9.6 white. Warlord 1-133 missing just a handful of issues. (Does anybody collect this but me and maybe five other people on the planet. I like this series).

Ikr it's the same with the dkr, punisher limited, and others that are just great stories, but slow in acquisition haha Congrats on making the goal once, cause there are many but it was yours. 9.6 made some for a while. I'd be satisfied with VF NM myself. Now that I think about it I had the complete set of Wolvie limited but they were all fvf with raw sigs. #1 by Claremont first ever comic con I went to, and #2-4 raw sig by Len Wein that I picked up at LCS before that when back into collecting. It was about the memories made with those issues! Edited May 17, 2023 by ADAMANTIUM musicmeta 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Detective Comics - 400 to present Being a DC fan, I realized long ago that I would never have a complete run of most of the titles I followed, so I made it a goal to get a complete run published during my lifetime (ie 1962-present). I have done so for most of them - Action Comics ('59 to present), Adventure Comics(1955+), Batman (1961 (#140) - present), Detective Comics (Dec-1961-present), Flash (1960+), Green Lantern (1960+), Superman (1955+), and World's Finest (1960+). Although I recently was going thru my collection and discovered a few issues that I had marked off my list that were actually missing the centerfold or had an ad cut out, so I've added them back to the wantlist. onlyweaknesskryptonite, BA773, Gonzimodo and 6 others 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Jaylam Posted May 17, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted May 17, 2023 (edited) My original collection from when I was a kid in the mid 60's to mid 70's included these titles with unbroken runs of issues, Amazing Spider-man #63-149 Aquaman 34-45 Avengers 54-140 Batman 199-223 Brave and the Bold 72-103 Conan 1-24 Daredevil 42-70 Defenders 1-28 Fantastic Four 68-150 Flash 172-218 Green Lantern 54-89 Iron Man 4-53 Justice League of America 54-106 Kamandi 1-17 Marvel Team-Up 1-20 Metal Men 20-41 Mister Miracle 1-18 New Gods 1-11 Silver Surfer 1-18 Sub-Mariner 4-37 Superboy 141-166 Superman 199-258 Thor 160-173 and then 200-240 X-Men 53-66 I collected other titles as well like Action Comics, Adventure Comics, Captain America, Detective Comics, Doctor Strange, Forever People, Metamorpho and Nick Fury to name a few, but only picked these titles up sporadically. Some titles like Iron Man and Sub-Mariner I had both issues of #1 but missed issues #2 and #3 and picked up again with issues #4 and continued on. Same with Thor, I had #150 but didn't buy another copy until #158 and then picked up again with #160.

I would love to get that from 1-400 but I acknowledge that to do so I am going to have to stumble upon an undiscovered collection or finally commit to selling other stuff within my collection to get there. I am not at the point yet because every time I think of the 100 or so books I would need to sell to afford ASM #1, I end up feeling sadder about losing 100 solid books than I am about the feeling of acquiring one single ASM issue. Depends what they are, but I’d think ending up with ASM1 would be the right move. BA773 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DougC Posted May 17, 2023 Share Posted May 17, 2023 My longest slabbed run is my X-Men (1991) Registry set: X-Men V2 Set My longest raw runs are: X-Factor 1-149 Sgt Fury 2-130ish (never picked up the first issue, now it's a bit to pricey) A bunch of 1-50ish runs of a lot of 90's books.

I mean, if I sold all my GA books (roughly 40 books, approximating $200 per book) I could get most of the way there. If I added in my Batman collection, that is probably close to 10-12k which could get it done. But again, there goes 300-305 books or so that I just would feel empty not having. I am only 33 so the allure to do this right now is not high...perhaps when I hit my 40s but by then who knows where the prices will be. It probably is something I should try to do now whilst able and worry about recouping the other books later should I miss them that much.

lostboys Posted May 17, 2023 Share Posted May 17, 2023 (edited) I got into comics after my friends father showed me his comic collection. It was probably around 1986 or so. He had everything Marvel...his favorite was Captain America but he had Daredevil, X Men, Spidey, Fantastic Four, Avengers, Hulk and more. All his runs started with issue #1 and they were complete and up to date. Beautifully bagged, boarded and long boxed. He decided to sell his collection a few years later. My friend and I helped him at the comic convention...the shows back then were strictly sports cards and comics. He ended up selling his entire collection that day...someone made him an offer for what was left at the end of the show. He didnt bring a single book home that day. I dont know how much he sold them for but im 100% sure he regrets it now. Edited May 17, 2023 by lostboys Browns81 and BA773 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess my longest run is probably Action Comics, where I have from issue 243 to present (along with all but 4 issues back to 189). You collected 85 years of Superman story?
