Question about Comic Books

[SpaceBooger]

The two of the reason the older comics are worth so much is because
A) WW2. The paper shortage.
B) 1950's Senate Committee report blaming comic books for the bad nature and behavior of the youth.

Those two reasons caused many of the comics that were published to be destroyed.
Today we have collectors and hoarders, as well as an economy where more people are willing to spend money on entertainment including comics. Finding a comic that is rare will be a challenge.
So do what you want, like I said before if your a real fan get it signed and it will be worth more to you.

I don't plan on selling them, so getting them signed is looking like my way to go

Heh.

Now the question is raised: what will you do? Keep it hidden and away from the elements, or have it surrounded in treated lucite (plastic treated with a layer of UV-blocker to prevent fading) and framed for display?

All of the comics that I have signed are framed and displayed or just displayed in a stand on a shelf.

I just use bag and board inside of comic boxes, safely stored in my closet

Meh, Donal Logue was so unlikable in this movie it annoyed me.

Over the top drama gone bad.

That may be true, but the point of the movie is so true and alone makes the movie worth watching.

I own a copy and watch it every couple of years or so. I thought of that movie when Josh was talking about getting the free TG16 from an older lady in the "Finds of the Day" thread.
