I am seriously thinking about once this whole "storage wars"
thing blows over...in a year or two...getting into that a little
bit.
I'd dump a majority of the stuff and really only look for old
comics....maybe stereo stuff.
would be a LOT of work though.....but one good score could make
it epic.

hahaha
that's your treasure.
I am looking for Silver Age Marvel comics.
:)
part to sell, but honestly the old stuff is just do damn cool to
see.
I love the old comic covers....it's too bad the newer stuff
never seems to have the same magic.
I guess 40 years from now it might...although I am not sure...if
you compare the two....it seems like a lot of the comics from
the last 20 years haven't stuck and made an impact that will
matter much down the road....none of the stories seem iconic
enough, or important enough.
who knows...I guess time will tell more.
I would keep all my new books in a LOT better shape and in bags
and boards...just to make sure though
:)

The older covers will always trump the newer ones. I think for
me, the whole embossed, stamped, million variant covers during
the Image days, kinda ruined it for me. At first, it was cool
when it was "exclusive". But then when they started doing it for
EVERY comic book on the stand and on titles that sucked and had
no readership was the tipping point for me.
Always go with the Golden and Silver Age Comics for sure.

even beyond all the gimmicks...the drawings themselves aren't as
iconic.
something to be said for simple and straight forward...even
though with that said...the old covers were still very dynamic
poses and cool angles.
they just didn't add a million lines and super processed color
over everything.
I sometimes wonder if someone could do a new version of the old
work.....if that would actually appeal to people.
sort of like if a band came out and did led zeppelin for the
2012 crowd......is there an audience.
so tough to say...it might feel too retro....even if the
structure and stylings were contemporary....so I don't mean do
Jack Kirby 2012....or John Romita Sr. part 2....but a very
boiled down comic style that was based more on poses and
composition than detail. I guess Bruce Timm and Shane Glines do
that to some degree.
I guess John Romita Jr..also..sort of captures that...although
to me his work is similar to Jason Pearson of a Cully Hamner.

I was cleaning more stuff out of the garage the other day and
finally found my View-Master Camera. Yay! I just haven't had
time to bust out the KISS reels and look at them though. That's
my next order of business..........

is in.

oh yeah. I just remember as a kid being blown away by that
scene...I'd never seen anything like it, and those viewmaster
slides made it look SO 3D to my kid brain.
I really feel like this is the beginning of round 2 (round 3
maybe if you count our kid days ) of my collecting days. I am
going to gut my collection I have now....keep the best stuff I
really love, sell the rest....and invest in a bunch of new fun
stuff to see 20 years down the road.
sounds fun right?
