COMIC RELIEF

comic books- collecting how?

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone knew how to collect comic books..I am starting on my collection, its Michael Turner’s Fathom, I had bought these comics over the past few years…

What gives comics their value? Is collecting regular issues ok, or is it better to collect CGC graded ones that are put in plastic casing?

Thank-you
I’m also really enjoying Soulfire…

Thanks to anyone who can help me!!

PS I heard that the Fathom movie is coming out, Megan Fox is starring…will my comic gain some value..I only have one CGC graded comic book, its the Fathom- bubbles cover (the first one) and I paid 70.00 for it..will this increase in value with the movie’s opening?

Now I’m going by when I use to collect comics and also what I’ve read over the years so bear with me.

If you like to read them every once and awhile than get the regular issues but many collectors do is buy 2 copies,one to read and one to put safely away.Now CGC one are great if you’re collecting a certain series and want to be 100% sure the issue you get is in the condition it says it is in.

Another good idea to is have the comics put safely away or CGC graded and buy the graphic novels so you can read them whenever you want.

Also buy acid-free back boards and comic bags to put them in and put them in boxes made for comics or put them in a droors without anything else besides the comics in there.

I think when a comic movie comes out the demand for the issues go up in value until the buzz from the movie goes away so yes I think that issue will go up in value for sure since it is issue # 1.

I hope that helped you out alot,you can also check out wizard magazine and it’s site if you want tips on collecting comics and their values,their mag always has a value guide in the back just to see the current value of comics.

Fathom by Gaff, Michael [Hardcover] $42.84 The journey of a thousand miles starts with one step. The journey to the front of a Central American firing squad can start with a trip to the mens room in a Chicago convention center. Tommy Conklin always imagined discovering more than his placid Indiana life had to offer. As a nave nineteenyearold and scuba enthusiast, he is lured by a government agent into joining an American underwater expedition based in Honduras. After selling all of his possessions to buy a stake in the company and relocating to the island, Tommy quickly learns that, as the saying goes, dark waters run deep. Arriving immediately after the 1969 Soccer War between El Salvador and Honduras, Tommy is quickly immersed in the unstable politics of the region. He, in fact, unwittingly becomes a central figure in several local episodes, which magnify into an international incident. Dive into Fathom to discover if Tommy survives his adventures through his sheer ingenuity and instinct, or succumbs to the overwhelming odds against him. Michael Gaff is a former PADI scuba diving instructor, having taught and certified more than two thousand people. He also assisted hundreds of Indiana and Ohio scuba rescue and body recovery team divers. His diving experiences reach from the more modern shipwrecks of Lake Superior, Lake Michigan and the Georgian Bay of Lake Erie in Canada to the ancient remnants of Spanish and English galleons beneath the coastal waters of Central and South America. A former airline pilot with Piedmont Airlines and USAirways, he is presently a corporate pilot, flying a Citation business jet. Mr. Gaff resides with his wife Debbie, dog Millie and five cats outside of Chattanooga, Tennessee.

Michael Turner (Musician) $74.88 Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. For other people named Michael Turner, see Michael Turner. Michael Turner (born 1962 in Vancouver, British Columbia) is a musician, and writer of poetry, prose and opera librettos. Turners work is often an examination of the entrenched and the seeminglyordinary; he often explores in great detail objects and concepts which are usually valued as means to an end, rather than ends, in themselves, as he does in Company Town (1991) and Kingsway (1995). Turner often varies his style and employs rich multiformat and intertextual approaches in his works, such as American Whiskey Bar (1997), and The Pornographers Poem (1999).
