Whats more addictive??

[s-man]

This year due to a nice bonus at the old job I have been able to dabble in the hobby a bit more financially wise than I did previously. One of the things I have discovered are the SS books (just ask Beyonder & AlexH )...cant get enough of them!!

 

But also I have been collecting OA as of late (Byrne, Mignola, Cockrum) and cant help myself when it comes to these either!!

 

So for all those who collect both...which one is the more addictive for you??

[Darrell F]

I would have to say OA.

Until I can afford to step into the world of OA.....I'm just going to continue having a blast collecting signatures.

Neither for me. I have no interest in SS books or OA.

 

If I couldn't buy it on the stand when I was growing up, I have no innate reason to collect it now.

Bronze Age Horror!!!! It's the crack cocaine of comic collecting!!

Not so with me; these boards have peaked my interest in areas of the hobby I never knew existed (UG's and mag's have been the focus for quite a while now….even have some OA).

I guess it really comes down to WHY you collect. I long outgrew the "reading new comics as entertainment" medium, but I still love buying (and reading) comics from when I was younger.

 

So basically, I left comics behind a very long time ago, and all that remains is nostalgia.

and all that remains is nostalgia.

 

Nostalgia should come with a warning label: HIGHLY ADDICTIVE!

I think I'm getting itchy for a fix.

I still love a reading a good comic. Never had any feelings for signitures, although I do have an FF #14 and FF #15, that have Stan and Jack's autograph on the first page which is cool to have. But then I couldn't say that they signed them. The previous owner said he had them signed. Who knows!

I've got a TTA 27 with either stans or jacks signature on the inside first page. Can't remember which. I just bought the comic and found the signature, and I'd bet money it's authentic.

 

Makes it fun.
