It got to the point in the late 70s and early 80s that I was spending so much money buying golden age comics that I could only justify it if I got work in the media.
My goal is for a complete collection of 'Squirrel Girl' comics to be equivalent to a C.S. bachelor degree. Now there's a comic that increases in value!
My brother and I used to collect comic books in San Francisco.
I was a huge comic book fan as a kid. The only problem I had with comic books is how expensive they got. I didn't have a lot of money, so I had to be very specific about what I wanted to collect. I think they're all somewhere in the basement of my folks' house.
I'm a big believer that if you buy a comic, you ought to own it.
The world of comic book collecting is not a pretty place. For a bunch of guys who like good-over-evil stories, you sure meet a lot of morally bankrupt assholes.
I have 15,000 comics in a warehouse, all bagged individually.
From the time I was 5 years old, I collected comic books.
I've collected comics for many, many years, but I've usually collected older ones for whatever reason.
I always had a great history of comics. I've been buying them since I was six years old. I was a student of the craft.
One older brother of mine collects comics, and when I was younger, I collected them, too.
I've keep every comic I've bought in my life. I used to be obsessive about boarding and bagging them all.
