I bought my very first comics ever on WhatNot and got a great deal! But it was an iconic bronze-age key that I got from the same WhatNot seller that really made my day, and I got it for a steal… perhaps literally.
Yes the title is a little bit click-bait, but check out the video to hear the fun story and also see two unboxings of some pretty great stuff!

Hey Mike, glad the book got there as I sent it. hose Wham stands are awesome so I'm pretty sure I need to get one. Plus, they offer "lunchbox hangers" so I'll need to grab one for the gift Jeff sent. Awesome pickups overall but that ASM 121 has my heart. I used to own it and need to get it back! Great video my friend and thanks for the kind shout out!

@alexortiz1431 4 месяца назад

A 3.5? I would think it would be in the $80 to $90 range! I guess CGC was generous giving it that grade, seeing as how sometimes they go off the deep end in grading certain issues that left an impact on a entire generation of comic collectors, young and old! I'm sure your friends will sell it to you for a reasonable price ! Great pickups! Excelsior!

Marie Severin's work is beautiful, whether pencils, inks (the best inker to ever enhance Herb Trimpe's pencils) or colours. David Mack is in my list of Top 10 comics creators and his Kabuki is simply awesome.

God evening Michael Very Nice things for a very nice guys. it is wonderful to see interest from young fans, and you are the guy to appeal to them. These kids are the future of comics, The Comic holders are great, it is interesting to see what a cottage industry has sprung up around comic books. And you scored some great comics.

Ever since I found a F- VF copy of ASM #121 in 1979, I felt that that it was pretty historic. It has since become even more important as the true beginning of the Marvel Bronze-era. So years later I searched out a high grade NM copy and was lucky enough to find one. I agree with you that this is truly a special pivotal book that I believe is a major key! Congrats!!

Did you know that Stan Lee never wanted Gwen to die but when that issue came out he was on vacation lol

@DWNicolo 5 месяцев назад

Nope. According to Len Wein, Stan Lee was behind the death of Gwen Stacey. Every Spider-Man writer including Stan Lee felt that Gwen Stacey was a cold fish that no writer ever warmed up to. There was a furious backlash from the fans over her death at the time. Stan Lee furiously back pedaled throwing Gerry Conway, at the time the Spider-Man writer, under the bus.

I am a native New Yorker and live in Brooklyn. Even though a confused Spider-Man exclaimed "George Washington Bridge"...it was in fact off the Brooklyn Bridge that Gwen Stacy met her end. Even someone from Queens can see the difference. Great video and even better luck with these comic book finds.

Mike, cool STRANGE TALES!! Don't know if you know this about the Marvel Silver "split books. Prior to 1968, Marvel was distributed by rival DC< and restricted to publishing only eight title, hence the heroes sharing so many books. Blame Martin Goodman. I'll he gave nephew Stan his share of Gray hairs...!!

@stevedriskell59 5 месяцев назад

That John Romita art style is what I grew up with in the '70s I bought 20 cent comics and then they went up to 25 before I stopped collecting but the characters on your Spider-Man book are like much of the characters were drawn at that time period.

@michaelbelasco1966 5 месяцев назад

I was in the room when you won some of these comics I think. I go by Mogmar on whatnot. I have to say guys. I have been getting unbelievable deals on Josh and Larry's show (magic geeks) on whatnot. I should probably be quiet lol but you guys are all such good people, I don't mind sharing the love. The Amazing Spiderman 121 at a 3.0 for about $100 as the guy below sounds about right Those stands are pretty cool as well. The Tribunal/Pink Floyd album cover bit of trivia is really cool. You always give the greatest tidbits of comic knowledge. Thanks again for another great show.

@Loscomicjourney 4 месяца назад

Great video Mike. I thought Echo was a decent show could have done a little more but it wss ok. The character in the comics is way better, for my taste anyway. I was able to get a Daredevil 9 cgc 9.4 for $3.99 at That's Entertainment. They were having a sale and I had a gift certificate. Also it almost made me cry seeing that ASM 121, I sold my copy of 121 and 122 both CGC 9.6's a few years back. Needed the cash. Still hurts every time I see them. I will get them back one day just maybe not that high grade. Lol. Great to finally meet up this past weekend. Can't wait to see all the great books you got. 👊🏼

@DavidClark-vu3dw 5 месяцев назад

I laugh sometimes when I see a price written on a book thats half of cover price like that asm 121. You know someone most likely sold that at a yard sale and thought they would be happy to get half back for what they paid for it, now being worth hundreds. 😄

@leeniren3706 5 месяцев назад

Hey Mike, how are you doing? I looked at Whatnot and decided it wasn’t for me simply because I have concerns about sending money, friends and family without actually knowing who these people are. There are very few of them that will accept PayPal from a non-friends and family account.

@lunchmoneycomics 5 месяцев назад

That’s interesting. I think if you have a complaint about not getting something or issues with payment then Whatnot reimburses you, like a credit card company or eBay. So it SHOULD be pretty hassle free but I’d be curious if people have had issues with it. I’ve only bought from my friends who I trust so I’m not the beat judge
