    Yer right - those Jimmy Olsen books are a bargain. i picked up some more at a very high priced comic store but these comics were still very reasonable. I love the cover where Jimmy is in self confinement in a transparent cell in his basement , looking like he needs a shower & shave, and very hungry. Superman has a tray of delicious food and says, “Jimmy, come out of that cell and eat this super meal!” But Jimmy won’t eat anything good or leave the cell. So many fun covers!

    12:26 “okay, so this one is kinda like a bigger key”, he says of an issue that has a literal big key on the cover. 😁 I thought that unintended pun was funny.

    • @pop-comics
      @pop-comics  Год назад +1

      Most definitely, you got to double check conditions and whats in a collection before you fully commit to it. And its good to know general values of the issues in the collection so you know ho much you are willing to pay up for it.

  • @robertt9342
    @robertt9342 Год назад

    I just got some action comics issues today. Mine were lower grade, but still nice to get.
    Yes you were right pay less for the stapled ones. While it doesn’t bother me too much, I do understand the market would grade those at a 2.0 or so, therefore the value would be less. Still even at a couple of bucks for those, they’d be a pretty good deal.

    • @pop-comics
      @pop-comics  Год назад +1

      Yeah I am still happy to have the stapled ones in my collection, but I will eventually want to upgrade them down the road. As long as the price is good I am happy with almost any grade when it comes to old stuff. As long as it not complete torn up or missing things.
