I didn't like comic hauls when I first got back into comics and discovered comic TH-cam. As you say, it felt self indulgent. Then I found my comfort and rhythm and now enjoy watching peoples hauls! Got no use for slabs or grade hunting though. I'll take a high grade if I can get it, but it's not my motivation. Talking art and geeking out about all the goodness is where it's at for me! Great haul so far! Love the passion and enthusiasm!
Thanks as always. And I've always gone for 'affordable grade'. I'd rather own dozens of decent grade comics rather than one slabbed 9.8. But if high grade slabs are your thing, I've got no problem, its just that I need to read and see the art.
Tom King is the guy who got me buying Batman. I couldn't care less about Batman before. Then after Strange Adventures I just stopped enjoying King's stuff. Black Canary was good though!
@@geekyolhog I "remember" because when her first full appearance came out I couldn't get a copy from my shop despite buying Hell Arisen monthly. I wasn't subbed and others were able to get multiple copies. I was so PO'ed with shop I almost went cold turkey.
I got bored with Tom Kings writing of women once I realized his way to make a woman tough is put a cigarette and/or drink in her hands. Once I noticed that I turned sour. He does write about Catwoman a lot in that run, but I liked the relationship. I wonder if I would enjoy it now?

Wowza!!!! Stellar haul!!!! Man I love silver age sci fi
Thanks! I'm loving that kinda stuff more and more!
Man! Those Tales of the Unexpected are gorgeous!!!
Yeah, will admit that I'm appreciating this era more and more as it increasingly disappears!
@@geekyolhog that's it. We may get reprints one day but it will be horribly recoloured.
A squillion quid would be like a hobillion CAD.
And thats just too much....😉🤣🤣

@@DCPatrol oh wow didn't realise she was that popular!
@geekyolhog it was a big deal at the time. It's a $50 dollar book (Hell Arisen 3). (I'm not bitter)
@@DCPatrol thats cool, I can tell... 🤐
Creator of Wonder Woman was William Moulton Marston who also invented the lie detector
That's the one!!! Thanks a lot for that!

I'm enjoying it for now, but haven't read many lol what did you think of the 'marriage issue'?
@geekyolhog I started after that happened so for me it wasn't a big deal. I didn't imagine it was going to happen anyway.
