In this video the Cool Kid and I meet up with my friend Sean and go to the Big Apple Comic Con In New York City hunting for amazing Comic Books. We look at a ton of wall books, so many key issues. I purchase some amazing GGA Golden Age Comics. And we just have a ton of fun hunting for comics at the con then around New York City afterwards.
Watch as I dig though boxes of comics at the Comic and seen which comics I ended up buying.

This video ends with a cliffhanger! 😱 those comic dealers seem passionate about comics and have a ton of knowledge. I enjoy listening as you talk with them about the books.

@pop-comics 2 года назад

Yeah its a great show and all the vendors are so friendly and knowledgeable.

46:12 So many cool comics! I saw the Charlotte Mini-Con T-shirt and started to think that was maybe Shelton Drum who owns Heroes Aren't Hard to Find and HeroesCon in Charlotte. And sure enough the other guy at the booth gave you that HeroesCon pamphlet. It's maybe the only big Con left that is solely focused on comics. He also did a phenomenal job of getting me excited about those Atlas Quick-Trigger Western's.

@mikebraycomics 2 года назад

yes - that was Shelton --

@popfuntoplay 2 года назад

Yeah he was a very cool guy, my Friend Sean ended up picking up two issues from the Western line and wants to get the rest. I will eventually probably grab them as well.

@GodLovesComics 2 года назад

@@popfuntoplay Yeah I saw that. HeroesCon is fantastic. I haven't been in over a decade but think I I'll go this year. It's about a 3 hour drive for me. But you're very fortunate to be within walking (or subway) distance from so many cool comics shows.

@GodLovesComics 2 года назад

@@mikebraycomics Ahh, I thought so but only got a brief glimpse. Are you going to HeroesCon this year?

@pop-comics 2 года назад

Yeah I have access to so many Comic shows within a half an hour subway ride from me, with dozens more within an hour or so ride so NYC is definitely a great place to be a comic fan with tons of access to comics. Plus dozens of comics shops, and plenty more thrift stores, used book stores and other spots to hunt. Plus my friend Sean overwhelms me with stuff he finds haha If this channel grows to the size to support it, I would love to go to way more conventions around the country and or world hunting for comics.

@richardyanchus2907 2 года назад

@pop-comics 2 года назад

That is exactly how I want folks to feel when watching my show videos ;)

The man, the myth, the legend: My Friend Sean! It's neat having Cool Kid make an appearance. Big help in having him remember books you are missing and being able to help carry back the goodies.

@pop-comics 2 года назад

Yeah, he was pointing out an issue I had maybe 10 years ago that is missing. There are 3-4 keys I just cant find in my collection and it really bothers me. I dont know if I misplaced or they got stolen. But yeah he is aware of them because I mention them every once in a while. And I have a hard time pulling the trigger to rebuy them haha

@michaell6807 2 года назад

30:30-"i just dont want to smear it cuz ive smeared so many signatures in the past."😸i cant believe you turned down that Jungle Comics at 36:36 that was a great cover.

@pop-comics 2 года назад

Was missing the back cover otherwise I would have grabbed it. I ended up buying a pile of Fiction House stuff from another vendor later in the show that I did not film. I need to film my haul video very soon.

@MarkDemeo 2 года назад

It's great that you and your son share in the conventions and other fun things. Like you said the memories you make are more valuable than the comics you buy.

Loving your comic videos Sean, something about watching you spend loads of money on comic books makes for really addictive viewing 😂 I’m hoping to dip my toe in the comics game later this year once I’ve had my eye operation and will be able to appreciate all the artwork again. I’m very interested in the Uber series, I think I’ll get the graphic novel then if I enjoy it try and collect some of the single issues. Excellent video as always, always enjoy your content here and over on Pop Fun To Play 👍🏼

@pop-comics 2 года назад

@gabrieljimenez9762 2 года назад

I'm not in your league yet, when it comes to collecting and grabbing key or older issues, but I'm certainly taking down notes for when I do graduate to that place. I like how you deal with the sellers, ask for discounts, what you ask about. I would have thought it poor form to haggle or ask for a lower price, but I see that when you are actually considering buying stuff and making substantial purchases, dealers don't argue or don't seem to mind. That Weird Science book was gorgeous. Drooling over it.

@pop-comics 2 года назад

When it comes to buying expensive stuff at cons its always ok to haggle a little. Especially if you are buying multiple things. With key issues you will but heads more, but more obscure stuff that is a bit harder to sell most vendors will work with you. I usually expect 10% off. One vendor I got 40% off but I knew he had the comics since last year since I had been thinking about them and I offered to spend at least $1000 after the discount I think he actually gave me 41% off because he rounded down a little. haha

@peepo1460 2 года назад

Thank you so much for the video and showing us all the cool older comics, most of the time its super hero stuff, its amazing, you have open my eye to so much cool books I had no idea about, that make me want to pick up some.

@Fatbond0007 2 года назад

Cool to see a different side of conventions rather than people competing over who has the best costume. Also when ever you buy new comics for your collection, do you ever consider if you will grade them in the future or do you just buy them to read and have.

@pop-comics 2 года назад

To me its all about the comics, digging the bins and hunting for neat comics to add to my collection at a price I think is fair. Everything else is just extra lol I want most of my money going into comics and not into plastic to validate they are in nice shape. I bought a giant pile of Fiction house comics at this con and they should all be at least 5s to 9.0 or even better on a few of them. Amazing condition and I paid 1/3 for them for all the ones that were graded at the con. So in my mind I got triple the amount of comics that I could afford in the same or better grades. And better yet I get to open them up read them, smell that wonderful old smell and just enjoy them more. I will grade stuff in the future if and when I want to sell. But for now I rather have triple the comics in the same grade because of they go up in value I have triple the gains. Grading just drains money much faster from collectors.

@Fatbond0007 2 года назад

@@pop-comics I can imagine it is only valuable collectors who want the comics graded as it helps show the value of their collection and don't really care about the story just the value

@JustSomeDan 2 года назад

I have about 400 bronze age comics I need to re-bag (same bags and backers for 40 years) do you suggest I use Mylar bags, resealable bags, or just plastic bags and backers? Thanks in advance Sean

@pop-comics 2 года назад

Depends on your budget, Mylites or Mylar bags will pretty much never need to replaced again. The boards you probaby have to replace again in 5-10 years. You can get 100 percent acid free boards that cost more but last longer. But if you want to stay with a cheaper budget resealable bags and baords are fine for another 5-10 years.
