There IS hope. Have a little faith. It is when things look their worst that miracles can happen. Don't give up.

@@thecomicsamurai I won't up hope.

I'm sorry. Sometimes drinking 7-up will help. Or Sprite.

@@thecomicsamurai that is true.

Set your feet. Grit your teeth. You'll get through this.

Things will get better. Try to focus on something positive.

@thecomicsamurai I agree.

That IS a good one. I'm waiting until I have them all in front of me to decide my favorite. Thanks for the comment!!!

Nice! I just got the Web of Spider-man one. Silvestri interiors! Can't wait to read it!!!

Glad you enjoyed! I really like that Doorway to Nightmare! Kaluta is SO underrated. He never gets the attention and praise that he should. Thanks for the comment!!!

Glad you enjoyed! Yes, I'll take any chance to show a good gimmick or small press comic. Thanks for the comment!!!

@@thecomicsamuraiI got some honorable mentions,,,, buffo laffs #1 which believe is the first gimmick cover,, cyberspace 3000 with a galactus glow in the dark eye,, death in the family diecuts,, and of course those spooky eyes of Erica slaughter

There are eyes on that cover? JK! It IS a beauty though. Glad you enjoyed. Thanks for the comment!!!

Great pick! I agree, Castle's eyes have that look that sums up the Punisher's mindset. Zeck is so talented! Thanks for the comment!!!

SO good! Love that story!!!

Nice! It's probably my favorite Hawkeye drawing. Thanks for the comment!!!

@@thecomicsamurai your welcome. 😀👍

It's a pretty good read. Classic Byrne goodness!

There are! It was hard to narrow it down. SO many good ones!

All good picks! Am Spidey 308 is one of my favorites! Great colors on that one too. 312 is probably my favorite of Todd's run if not for his triumphant return in 328. Inferno. Goddamn do I love that storyline. Such great work. Simonson and Sylvestri at their finest! Dave Stevens, what a legend! Thanks for the comment!!!

Glad you enjoyed! Yes, Conan IS King. Thanks for the comment!!!

Thanks!

@@thecomicsamurai your welcome. 😀👍

I need to reread that one. I've been waiting to watch the movie so I'll read it tonight and watch the film over the weekend. Too fun!

That issue blew my mind! I could not believe they were actually killing some of the X-men! SO well written and draw. Comics at their best! Thanks for the comment!!!

@@thecomicsamurai your welcome. 😀👍

That whole "Demon in a Bottle" storyline was pretty fantastic. Thanks for the comment!!!

That character is Wolveroach and it landed Sim in some hot water... Again, thanks for the comment!!!

Glad you like! Thanks for the comment!!!

All good points! You have a good eye for detail. Thanks for the comment!!!

Glad you enjoy! What a great note, much appreciated! Yes, lot's more to come. Thanks for the comment!!!

Very cool! I wanted to be sure and not miss an issue when I was a kid, so to ensure that (and save some $) I got a subscription. Big mistake. They came all messed up and by the time I got them and realized how jacked they were, I was too late to get them off the shelves. Too funny. I went up to issue 101 before I fizzled out. It just wasn't for me anymore. I loved the ones till then though! Thanks for the comment!!!

Nice! Good luck with the comic room, they're a lot of fun. What a great comic to start with! X-men 283 is a fantastic book. Portacio knocked it out of the park! Be sure and let me know if you post some pics or a video of your room when you're done. Thanks for the comment!!!

I definitely will and yeah I was hooked on xmen since then haha. I started a little TH-cam channel this year as I got serious about collecting so I will post the progress there if you want to check it out! No pressure though, just trying to connect a little with my fav comic TH-camrs, yourself included. ✌🏾

@@thelatestartcollector Subbed! Can't wait to watch!!!

@ awesome thank you so much! I’ve got a few new comic related videos coming soon too! Comic collecting is a different kind of vibe in Australia that’s for sure. ✌🏾

Both of those are AMAZING! Have you seen the original art for the Mysterio cover? I like the black and white version even better. That Red Skull cover is fantastic, there's so much detail! Thanks for the comment!!!

Much appreciated! Thanks for the comment!!!

Thank you! No, I had never heard of Supernaturals! SO glad that they are on my radar now! THAT is what I love about making these videos, finding out about cool comic lore like that! THANK YOU!!!

That sounds like marching orders. Can do and will do! Thanks for the kind words and for taking the time!!! Enjoy the holiday!!!

Oh man! You should have said that earlier! I JUST saw it in a $2 box and I ALMOST grabbed it just to have an extra to give away. I do that with good reads and that one is AMAZING! I'll keep my eye open. Thanks for the comment!!!

@ oh that sounds awesome,, all the shops around here are lame it’s hard to find cool covers for reasonable price

Thanks for the kind words! I totally hear you on the obscure stuff. I try to mix it up with mainstream stuff that most collectors will have and then sprinkle in those indie/obscure titles. Halloween's a tough subject though. Where do you draw the line? Evil Ernie is a monster, but does he fit in Halloween? What about Casper? I decided to keep this year's picks to mostly mainstream, but next year... watch out! Indie stuff only!!! Thanks for the comment!

I need to reread that one. I remember really liking it more than I thought I would when I read it the first time.

The Spector would make a great Halloween costume! I doubt many people would get it, but it would be fun!!!

Thanks, Man! Happy Halloween to you as well! Jack and Vampirella are the first two characters to come to mind for me this season. That's why I featured them. I'd love to see an adaptation of Jack O' Lantern to the big screen. Thanks for the comment!!!

@thecomicsamurai your welcome. 😀👍🎃

Glad you enjoyed! The great thing about most of the comics I show is that they are all pretty easy to find and are never very expensive. I'm sure there are a lot of sellers on Ebay that would have most of these comics for pretty cheap, especially if you find one that can combine shipping. I don't sell any comics, but I'll look and see if I have any in my doubles box and I will give those to you. Thanks for the comment!!!

I only have a FF vs. X-Men 1 in my doubles. If you want it, let me know some other titles, characters, runs you're interested in and if I can get 5 or 6 comics that you'd like, I'll mail them off. Have a good one!

Glad you enjoyed! Thanks for the comment!!!

Nice! That's one of the few things that I'd still like to get for mine. That and a turbo! Thanks for the comment!!!

Thanks for the support! I hope you enjoy some good comics. Acetates ARE great, but I'm glad they don't put them on EVERY comic! Thanks again!!!

I agree! I think SS 100 is going to make it to Comic Bowl II. They are so good! Thanks for the comment!!!

1990 on both sides. Where on the play field?

@@thecomicsamurai on the side arm says 1990 under batman and on play field above left flipper says 1991 DC comics inc. Just want to see if they all match up like that or do I have a first print or something like that. Thanks

Art

@@rubenflorez2395 Wow. I've looked at that play field a lot and have cleaned it twice and never noticed that bit of text before. Mine is the same as yours, 1991. Very cool! Thanks!!!

@@thecomicsamurai your welcome. Get original topper and it'll look legit. Batman signal topper

While all of those are iconic, classic covers, are they your favorites? Don't get me wrong, I love them all, but they just seem so terribly dated when I look at them (except DD 158). Expecially Hulk 181. Wolverine's first costume with the whiskers and the thick claws is not my favorite version of the character. And have you read them? Again, classic, but hokey as all get out. In my opionion. Thanks for the comment!!!

@@thecomicsamurai it's the amazing style of the era. Of course there's now fine artist representations out there now that can capture and reproduce. But an original image is an original ❤

@@rickytoddbotelho9555I can't argue with that! Thanks again!!!

I totally agree! I remember feeling sorry for him. A blind superhero. I just felt bad for him, especially in his yellow costume. Then I got ahold of 158... Mind. Blown. Thanks for the comment!!!

@@thecomicsamurai me too. I was kid reading heavy metal, fantastic four, avengers, batman, spider man, X-Men, warlock trying to keep up. Then my lcbs owner put this book on the wall. I liked Gil Kane's stuff, Frank's resembled it. After I looked through it. I was changed.❤️

They're fun, but getting harder to find over here. I haven't seen another on the road for almost a year! Thanks for the comment!!!

It's easy to get excited about great comics! Thanks for the comment!!!

Thanks for the comment! Johnnyr859 is right on time! Rock and roll! Thanks for the comment!!!
