TOP COMIC BOOKS to INVEST in For 2023 

Especially if u bought TOD 10

Man funny thing I never collected comics my brother did i just used too read them in the 90's, then in 2011-2014 i started buying a lot of comics and I wasn't sure if that was a good era for comics

Man I would love to own Hulk 181 or GSX 1

I’m curious which 80’s comic series / keys in particular you think will appreciate.

@@jedimasterham2 ASM 300, 252 and TMNT

​@@Boxoflightsarcade Here's another question. What comics from the 80's do you think are grossly undervalued that may appreciate?

@@jedimasterham2👀

I’ll name some that I think will continue growing from the 80’s. Hulk 340 (and McFarlane’s other Hulks from that time), Batman 423, New Teen Titans #2, Tales of the Teen Titans #44, Wolverine limited series (especially #1), Punisher mini series (especially #1, Wolverine #1 from the first long series, as well as many of the first 10 in the series), tons of Uncanny X-Men keys from the 80’s, Secret Wars, Tim Drake and Dick Grayson Batman keys (look them up), Punisher #1 from his first long series, As well as some of the final issues from that series that had lower print counts, War Journal has some keys could continue to grow. Daredevil, specifically Frank Miller’s run could keep climbing (Dark Knight Frank Miller as well). The Killing Joke. I wouldn’t discount the 80’s at all. Especially now that silver age and many Bronze Age books are getting so expensive. That’s part of the reason I have turned my attention to the 80’s. I’ve also been going after everything McFarlane before he started Image. His Coyote books and yes, even his Infinity Inc stuff. I think McFarlane will be the modern day Jack Kirby and Jim Lee also had a major impact. Jim Lee - Samurai Santa, Alpha Flight 51. All 80’s.

I have a pretty impressive collection but had to sell a bunch of them a long (long!) time ago to pay for car insurance (of all things). I’ve replaced most of those but the Neal Adam’s Batman run has eluded me (I’m not nearly as avid a collector as I was). You have got me thinking about getting off my ample ass and reclaiming those prized possessions!

That is awesome!

Dave can you send me a link don't know where to reply

Thanks for watching!

Same to you!

@@ComicBookInvestmentshello again sir, I realize that I ask you way too many questions about books but, you’re the only guy on RU-vid I trust. Do you think since the Dazzler character is probably going to show up in Deadpool, do you think it would be wise to pick up a Dazzler #1 book?

Agreed.

Thanks ya I hope this can at least help people know what is good and isn’t

yeah im doin it now mentally.. I wanna pull the trigger but im on save mentality for an unknown emergency.. I think the rest of the nation is bout to go into this mode

Thank you. Glad it’s all visible

Thanks. Ya I have lots of videos that help figure out what is good to buy

Thanks. My PC is actually quite small lol

@@ComicBookInvestments well, once you get that Vault built up a bit, make a video about the vault books and why. Ha

i'm glad I can help you, that is all I can really offer, is advice and info that helps people

Happy new year!

What show have you been watching all these years?! This guy is HORRIBLE at picking books! Completely awful. You better get to researching things yourself and get things that have staying power.

The issue there is, I don't think all grades will be investable. Example NM 98 I think is great in 9.0 and above, but not so great in 6.0. I think MS5 is great in most grades but then the cheaper option of Ghost rider 1 (1990) You need to get 9.6 or 9.8, anything less than that isn't a good investment. So being investable also depends on teh grade

Older action comics are great too

ya I put the crow in my top 10 80s comics for investments

I agree. Very Hard book to find.

@@Boxingbear Im glad to hear that! I got lucky about 20 years ago cause my girlfriend at the time bought The Crow #1 (1st print) for like $50 at a LCS and gave it to me for my birthday….10 years later I was able to go to con where I met James OBarr and he autographed it and I had CGC witness…came back 9.0! Bonus-while I was talking to him he was drawing The Crow character on paper and I asked him if he would sell it and he said yes so I bought that original sketch full color and he autographed it as well!

Thanks

Wow. If you have that in your collection keep,it for the long haul! That book will definitely keep going up in value. 🚀 1st full Galactus, 2nd app Silver Surfer and 1st cover of both Galactus and Silver Surfer! That’s a nice mid-high grade for that book. I have same book but in CGC 3.5 and I’m definitely keeping it long term.

Yes also hes had 3 movies in the past, I dont think hes going anywhere, but hes kinda like my risky play on this list. That is why hes at number 15

ya i skipped blade ... not feeling that one / movies of him dont matter ...low level stuff

Yes silver age x men are great. Especially under issue 20 and below

Yes it’s quite a common book. I don’t imagine this thing will go sky high. But u can pick up a 9.8 for $60-$75. That too me is a good deal

@ComicBookInvest... So this is a scam bot right? :D

Hahahah. It knows :)

In general cbcs books carry a lower premium than cgc if it looks like a 9.8 I would swap it over to cgc

@@parkertheking99 okay, thanks for the tip!

Yes most things have. But over time everything goes up for the most part.

exactly. look at the long term, people get too hyped on the short term...thats not how you make soound investments. We live in the get rich quick days, with NFTs, Veve, and crypto

The joker probably #1 villain there is...IMO

Of course there is always risk, but if we look at trends over the past 100 years. Action comic 1 or high end keys like that have had nearly 100 years of data showing that its steadily gone up over time. So when I say "pretty much no risk" I say that based of decades of data

thats awesome, love those old timelys

50 is a key. That’s fine at a 3.0. It’s more of the non keys. U need a higher grade to really see a benefit. Regardless you have a very investable run

The comment I was looking for.

@comicprobe I just hope it keeps going up in value cause after all Wolverine did first appear in that comic even if it’s “cameo”. I was “lucky” to trade 5 minor key books and $600 for a Hulk 180 CGC 8.5 at my LCS 3 years ago and at that time they were selling it for $895.

That’s awesome. Great books to get. Especially that ff 1 and war covers

@@ComicBookInvestments Hope you run some more auctions. Got some deals and had books in hand in 4 days.
