    Anyone here invest in COMIC BOOKS?

    Just saying.

    I have few CGC graded but nothing too spectacular.

    I need to start, comic books are good investments too if grade is high.

              I have some in my closet that I haven't seen in about 20 years.

              In about 20 more years I'll see how much they are worth.

                                      I collected a lot of them when I was a kid and it turns out most of them were worthless, with a few nice exceptions.

                                      A friend of mine recently sold his entire collection. He had about 5,000 books. About 100 of them had some real value and came to about $5000. For the rest he got 40 cents each.

                                      If you can find the right ones and get them for a good price, you can make some money. If you are going to sell some, try doing it when the corresponding comic book movie is out. A few years back when Venom was the main villain in one of the Spider-Man movies I sold my two Spider-Man comics that feature the first appearance of venom and got a few hundred each for them. Now they are worth about half that. Female Thor might be about to go up in value.

                                          No comic books, but u have the first issue of easy rider magazine in mint condition!
                                          Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
                                          think about that

                                              I have heard that the market for most collectibles has been down. Just a function that the baby boomers liked to colllect and no one after them does. This was from a guy who worked with stuff like that.

                                                      Comics were good

                                                      Comics were good but right now people are so much busy spending time on phone and videos that everybody appreciates it but nobody wants to pay for it.

                                                      Just look at DC Comics and Marvel. They have shifted to pictures. Plus, no new super heroes are made.
