Collecting comics

[tundra9]

Anyone on here collect comics?
I have a small collection, and I mostly collect by artists. Storywise, the artists I "collect" has some excellent plots,
both by well-known and less known writers.
I rarely buy comics though, maybe once a year, but when I buy, I get a fair amount of books, just got a package in today with
7 books pencilled by Humberto Ramos, Joe Mad, and Skottie Young.
I found myself opening these with the utmost care, even more careful than handling star wars mocs
And the pride of the collection is a hardcover ed. of Heir to the Empire, signed by Olivier Vatine(penciller) and Mike Baron(script), numbered #538 of 1000

Before I collected Star Wars a had a shitload of silver age Marvels...key issues a run of Spiderman, Fantastic Four and several key first appearances.........sold them all in the 1990's to start the collecting Star Wars fund....bought a few beers and trinkets with the funds too.

Well at least the funds went into something useful

Only star wars, ESB, ROTJ and Ewok Comics mate.

I have almost all of the old marvel star wars comics in norwegian, excellent plots and vibrant art in most of them, they sure
don't make them like they used to..
