Prime, Hard Case and the Freex disagree!

(I've got some Marvel motion comics of roughly the same era as well.)

Also, since the wife has CCL open, our comic count is an estimated 15,000.

Complete runs... who knows? I've got quite a few complete publisher sets around here and more than a few complete runs.

Threads like this make me wanting to finish my VH1 runs. I really don’t need that much anymore.

Cyberstrike · Post by **Cyberstrike** » Mon May 09, 2011 2:05 pm

Before I sold my about 2/3 of my collection off I would say a rough estimate would have been about 10,000 single issues and over 5,000 runs of various titles.

Now I would put that around 4,000 single issues and 1,000 full runs.

That is not counting graphic novels, TPBs, HCs, and prestige format books and series.

I'm at around 3500 comics at the moment, but that is after some serious paring down myself. At my peak I was pushing 12,000 books, but I sold quite a few. Over the past year or so I have given away around 6000 books to my wife's cousin and guys at work. Just seems like too much trouble to sell them, seeing as nothing I had was that rare or expensive.

Here are some of the runs that I have:

Flash (1987 series) #1 through 230 and all annuals
Action Comics #800 through 900
Silver Surfer (1987 Series) 1 through 146 and all annuals
Swamp Thing (1985 Series) #80 through 171
Animal Man #1 through 89
Flaming Carrot Comics #1 through 31
Dazzler #1 through 42
Quasar #1 though 60

and (cue Draco...) every Youngblood comic ever published.

I have a pile of premium books to sell you in the next year or so just before we do the Liefawkes night burning.

Runs that I have?

All of CGW/DHH minus Ghost v.2 # 18.

All of Green Lantern, v.3 (1989-2004) and v.4(2004-present).

I used to have all of Defiant, Broadway, about 1/3rd of CrossGen, all of Valiant and Acclaim and all of the DC/Marvel/Malibu Star Trek family of books.

At other times, I've owned complete (through about 1999) runs of Star Wars (DH edition) books, Aliens, Predator, Terminator, Robocop, Thing From Another World (surprisingly good) and Indiana Jones(also surprisingly good).

Did you own a copy of Miracle on Broadway as well ? As far as I know/knew(?) there were maybe 3-4 of us (or less ?) that owned one.

I probably have a Ghost v2 #18, I can look see if you still need it.

That would be superb, about Ghost. It's also # 17, not 18. I just checked. As for MOB...um...I sort of had one. Long story.

#17

I"ll check.

'sort of had one'... do tell. I don't know the story and it already sounds painful.

Books = too many.
Complete runs = Incredible Hulk, Valiant & Acclaim (minus Bloodshot price variants)

Need 3 Marvel Team-ups to finish the original 150 issue run 2, 12, & 14.

Oh man this killed me... I have a gap in issues 10-17 and I probably have dupes of 18. I have the later issues. You mentioned that there are issues with low print runs... Which ones ?

Sorry dude...

Short for comic runs. Great for other runs.

xodacia81 · Post by **xodacia81** » Tue May 10, 2011 8:34 am

Oh yes. Had to add that I have all of the issues of Green Arrow, going back to the early 80's 4 issue miniseries and continuing through to the present day. GA/BC really is a waste of an opportunity as it is essentially 2 overblown stories tied together and then capped off with a tie-in to Cry for Justice.
