Original comic art pages & covers

Post by grendeljd »

So I’ve finally just dipped my toes in the original comic art collecting pool.

I doubt I will be able to afford to get into this too heavily in the long run, but I was wondering if anyone here has any good tips for finding rare, classic &/or cool old comics pages & covers? I picked up two pages from an eBay seller to start, and I have discovered C-Link & Heritage Auction websites as well. Anywhere else that is a good source to buy from?

Buy from people you know, like Sonic Dan. That's how I started, to some degree. I'll also be selling off a bunch of great V1 common pages in the next few months. Need to pare down, and get some cash.

Good idea, thanks! I am starting out looking for New Universe related pages, so I do think its going to be tough to find anyone I know that would have them.
