The Comic Book Newsstand, July 1974! 😎

This video is about the Comic Book Newsstand of July 1974. I observed every book that came out that month and give my thoughts on the creative teams, publishers, and various genres. Let me know if you think older comics are better than new books, or if you think it's interesting to step back into the past and compare them to now. Let's look at the Comic Books on the Newsstand in July 1974.
Let me know what you think.

The Superman and Whiz no 2 were tabloid sized treasury editions. The Stan Lee Kid Colt likely a reprint.
LULZ I never realized how many of these are in my closet right now. Now I know where my lawn money went.

those DC Limited Collector's Edition were "Treasury" size and fun to collect, I still don't have all of them, although I do have the Keys, such as the Superman vs Spider-Man, Batman vs Hulk, Shazam vs Superman, Superman vs. Mohammed Ali, just need to find most of the odd-ball rarer ones such as the assorted Rudolph books. Most of those were reprints, but some were newer stories

[@RockPaperXcissors]

That's awesome. 👍

[@gilraybaker826]

Don't forget the oversized GHOSTS and HOUSE OF MYSTERY editions.

[@BalsamPorch]

Cool content, you should do a review of comics that was released on the year you were born.
A few years ago i picked up my birthday comic of Ghost Rider #28 1978 and met and have Jim Shooter's signature on the cover when i went to NYCC 2022.
Nice review.

[@RockPaperXcissors]

That’s a great idea.

[@AnthonyOldhandGarcia]

@@RockPaperXcissors Thanks. Keep up the great work on your channel.

Very 😎 cool. Thanks 🙏 for watching.

I started buying off the rack (with my own money) a few years before, and by this time I was spending most of my paper route profits on comics, and rock albums.

[@RockPaperXcissors]

That’s 😎 awesome. Thanks 🙏 for watching.

[@arthurtripp6922]

One.of the big sales were the Giant Size reprints Action, Whiz, ect. As the 100 page books. And Gold Key had a big effect on the Young collectors. This is when Long Island had two shows a month.

[@RockPaperXcissors]

Long Island was Rocking? 😀😃🥹

[@gilraybaker826]

Still remember finding Whiz lying next to the oversized magazines, since it wouldn't go into the HEY KIDS! COMICS! spin racks. My heart fluttered. I dug golden age reprints. I believe I found it in fall, and won a cable TV trivia contest on Thanksgiving, because I guessed from it who Spy Smashers secret identity was.

[@comicpickups]

That was close, I’m Aug ‘74, so I collect the books from then, but I go with the date on the book, so for instance the Hulk 180 is actually October on the cover not July, so I wouldn’t count that as July. 🤔

[@RockPaperXcissors]

I wasn't sure how to do it. I have to think about it for the next video.

[@comicpickups]

@@RockPaperXcissors I wasn’t criticising, it was very interesting, just my preference to have my birthday books with the Aug on the cover rather than some other random month. 👍

[@gilraybaker826]

A lot of those month dates were wiggy though. Sometimes books were late, released early, or allowed to set for months. That's why they added colored bars to the upper margins later as a display code, because the printed month dates got ignored.
