Got my Batman And the Monster Men trade and when I put it in my shelf it continues to stay warped for some reason and even when pressed tightly between books it won't return to form. Help!

Discussion Besides “tape pull” what’s the second worst thing you do that makes you facepalm?

For me, it’s forgetting I have pending bids with a seller and I pay for books before they all resolve and end up paying extra shipping

third would be buying doubles despite having CLZ

The only spiderman I’ve read myself is McFarlane’s little run. I figured I’d pick this up for a work read !

Question Are these the best bags and boards? (Mylar)

Curious if these bags and boards are best in class for modern comic runs that are currently coming out. Is it true people get this size for modern comics so it leaves room on the borders? I want to get the best possible materials but the “mylite 2” bags would take forever in shipping so I’m wondering if these bags and boards are comparable.

Question Suggestions for a good online comic shop

6 Upvotes

Needs a good online comic shop to order from. Sometimes my LCS doesn’t have some of the books I want on New Comic Book Day so I’m looking for a good shop to order those issues from online. Any good suggestions?

Question Horror Comics

9 Upvotes

Just got into collecting, started with the horror genre since it’s my favorite movie genre. Just a question, is this a sought after genre or do people generally just want a lot of money for them due to dates?

Bought this in a slab with a 6.5 grade. Cracked it open to read it and take some pictures. Did nothing to it. Sent it in for grading. Just got it back at a 7.5 😁

Picture I challenged myself to find the complete 52 series in dollar boxes in a single day. I (almost) did it!

I have wanted to read this for a long time, and since I had lots of free time today I thought it would be fun to visit some local comic shops and try to put together the complete run from the dollar boxes. Five stores and dozens of dollar boxes later, I was able to find 51 out of 52 issues. The only issue I didn’t find in a dollar box was #11, so I went ahead and bought it for a few bucks out of the regular back issue boxes at the final shop I visited. I’m excited to start reading now!

Question Silver Age Repair Q

3 Upvotes

Has anyone ever seen a successful repair of a detached cover done?

Just grabbed a really nice copy of FF 50. If the cover was attached it’s a 7.0+ easy.

But sadly the cover is not still attached. The original staples are still in it and nicely attached no rust. The cover just popped.

So A. Is a reattachment repair using the original staples possible and B. If so can it be done without getting a purple label?

*I don’t grade barely ever but if I could reattach I might for this beauty just to revel in my grab.
