Ya ya, not the other bank you perv… I was pulling books to price and drop in the boxes at my co-op space and deciding what I’m still clinging to vs. giving up on.
I’m still hanging onto:
Sonic Archie and IDW
Spawn
Late run newsstand issues
Low print stuff that really doesn’t have much value now
I’m starting to let go:
GI Joe
Transformers
TMNT
Horror
I’m dumping as fast as I can find a buyer:
Most Marvel except Miles key issues
As much as I’d like to be out of it, I’m holding my Star Wars spec until that fandom gets excited again.
Keeping all Miles Morales and Spider-Gwen until they hit live MCU. Other Marvel, not so much.
I’m selling all things that can make a profit. Most of the Marvel spec stuff is in the toilet, so I’m holding that only because I don’t want to sell at a loss.
For example, I have a couple 9.8 graded New Agents of Atlas War of the Realms 1. Those are going for $60-70. I’d rather hold in hopes they go up a little. But, if there’s any news on those, I’m selling immediately.
Stocking up like crazy on any black costume spidey books along with any X-Men keys. Obviously a bit late now but I’ve been buying them for awhile.
Also keeping all key video game books as well as harder to find movie related horror books (Freddy, Jason especially)
I’m getting rid of quite a bit of other horror books (Charlton especially). Strike while the iron is hot and it’s blazing hot currently.
All cheesecake type stuff-gone
I am not really stock piling anything. I have 50,000 comics. Unlike others I am keeping my horror books because that is what I love. Grabbing any and all 10,12,15 centers that I find cheap of any book. Some of these books are coming up on 100 years old. I am 12 years away from retirement and hope to sell comics in my retirement. Maybe open a shop.
I am selling anything I can find of value that doesn’t fit my collecting goals though.
