Have you gone down the rabbit hole about who Wonder Woman's creator modeled her after? Very interesting and sheds a lot of light on the character herself.
Not yet. Although, I know a little bit about Marston's story and am aware of his wife and his lady friend...
@@KarensPages if you can find a picture of her, they bear a striking resemblance, she also was supposed to have worn bangles like WW'S
Sensation Comics and The Amazing Spider-Man Comic! Nice Pick-ups! The colours on the Spider-Man book are so vibrant and the foreground and the background are fantastic! But, I like the Wonder Woman Comic because you sent it away raw, and than had it graded professionally.
Thank you! I agree, the colors are great. 👍
Excellent video. Just stumbled on to your channel. I recently purchased my first Golden Age Comic myself and shifting my interest more towards that era. There is something more alluring about them.
Thank you! Which Golden Age comic did you get?
Congrats! Love to see the joy when you opened the package. A piece of history.
Hi Comic Art Channel! I'm glad you enjoyed the video. I'm looking forward to unboxing more books like these in the future, but this one will always have a special place in my collection as the first from the Golden Age!
Wow! That Sensation Comics issue is an awesome book and in great condition too. Congrats for owning it.
Thank you so much! 👍
Your love of Amazing Spiderman makes me wish I had held on to all of my Amazing Spiderman collection I broke up back in late 1990s...had triple copies of most #2 up to 80 or so...oh well I enjoyed them and have the treasury editions now...congrats on Wonder Wonan...terrific cover...
Thank you! I think it's really cool that you had such a nice collection at one point (and triple copies!). Treasury editions are great, too! I definitely want to pick up more early ASM at some point! In the meantime, I have the omnibus, which is nice.
Great pickups. My favorite character is Spider-man. I am primarily a Silver and Bronze collector, but I have a smattering of Golden Age. One genre of focus I have had over the years is collecting Christmas related comic books, and one book I had coveted for years was Sensation Comics #38. Like you, I prefer strong mid-grade to high grade books. And as you mentioned, these books can be pricey and this issue especially so due to the Christmas cover. SC #38 is a book that does not come up very often, and when the few nice copies came up over the years, I always got outbid. Finally, a 5.0 copy came up and it's one of those books where the front cover grades much nicer (around a 7.0 to 7.5 in my opinion) than the entire copy. You can see the book at about the 3:00 mark in my video from 6 months ago entitled "Christmas Comic Book Fun Episode #1."
I was really eyeballing the Promise Collection copy of SC #38 back in March, but it was a bit too pricey for me right now. 😂 I'll definitely check out your video to see your copy! Congratulations!
Karen, Great grabs from Heritage...The WW is a great grade and presents extremely well. The ASM (my wheelhouse) Pops and is another fantastic example of JR SR's fab 2 figure cover. I just followed you on IG. Keep up the authentic vids coing.
Thanks for watching multiple videos, CJ Design and also following me on IG (I followed you back). It was nice to see you in Rubén's chat tonight! What are some of your favorite ASM covers?
@@KarensPages SO many great ones...Ditko=17/18/29/33 JRSR 39/40/60/62/63/66/67/75++=
@@cjdesign5700 Those are some pretty awesome books. I especially like 29 and 33!
I used to own the Edgar Church/Mile High copy of this issue, and many other Sensations!
Wow, that's amazing! I would love to own something from the legendary Edgar Church/Mile High pedigree some day!
That is an amazing book!!!
Thank you!
Great job! Congrats on your Wonder Woman purchase! Love the outtakes at the end, awesome!
good looking book
Thank you!
For scratches and smudges on CGC cases, many are removable with Polywatch cleaner and a micro fibre cloth. Comic Tom just did a video about this.
Thanks for the suggestion! 👍
I used a Magic Eraser to remove scratches from a CGC case and it worked well. It was very quick and easy.
@@JB-ou6fl Thanks for the tip! 👍
Great video. Great pickup🔥🔥🔥
Thank you so much!
WOW! I have several Golden Age DC comics myself but no Wonder Woman yet, I can understand your reluctance for going after Golden Age books price wise, although you can find some lower grade ones in 2.0 or so you can get some bargains out there. still you got yourself a great find there, congratulations. 🙂
Thank you! It's surprising sometimes just how good a 2.0 copy (or even a 1.8) can look. 👍
Another nice video, Karen. Although I don't collect comics, this one was even more fun than the first one due to your inclusion of outtakes. So funny and it's great to see that you don't take yourself too seriously. The outtakes also simultaneously remind me why I only do live content!
Congrats on the two books, they look lovely. Especially the Sensation. Now you just need to get yourself some Wonder Woman original art! ☺
Thank you, Rubén! I really appreciate your positive comments. I'm glad you enjoyed the outtakes, too. I don't know how you do a live show every Sunday -- I would be an absolute disaster!😂
@@KarensPages My pleasure, we small time RUclipsrs in the comics/comic art hobby should always support one another, as we're all doing our own little part to leave the hobby a little better than it was when we entered it.
As for the weekly show, it's seeking out the published versions of the original art online as well as the year of publication, then resizing the scans and turning them into slides that is the most time consuming part. But once we go live, it's a blast because the work is all done and nothing is scripted. We all just hang out and have a good time together and it's a nice way for a few dozen of us to stay in regular contact. You should try just prerecording your next video without scripting/plotting it in any way. Just be yourself and don't worry about tripping over your words. Your enthusiasm, love and passion already shows through, but I think there's a good chance it would all come out even stronger if you just ad-libbed without any concern for mistakes or the need to edit so much. You have nothing to lose in any case, as you could try it and play it back for yourself privately to see how it goes. Either way, you're such a refreshing voice to see and hear in this hobby, which of course is why I want you to consider at least chatting with me privately about the possibility of doing something together on my channel and perhaps reciprocating on your channel. Aside from being fun, even my small following could be beneficial to you since you're just starting out. Please consider it. 🤗
@ Thanks for the solid advice. I will try that! 👍 I will send you a private email regarding the second part of your comments.
@@KarensPages You're welcome, Karen. Sounds good, I look forward to chatting via email!
Beautiful book. Well done! ✨
Thank you! 👍
I'm a sucker for a good golden age cover, and that one is a beauty! Congrats!
Thank you so much! I'm glad you liked it! 👍
Hey Karen, this is Bob in Connecticut. If you do the right thing collecting Comics, you don’t have to go to work anymore if you buy the right books of course you know that.🤑🤑🤑
Someday, Bob. Someday. 😉
Wow!
Exactly!
Wow! That's a pretty nice grade for such a old book (1940s?).
Congratulations on finding such a sweet looking slab 😺
Thank you so much, Jeff! 😁Yes, it's an old one. Sensation Comics 35 came out in 1944.
Sweet Book!
Thank you! 😊
i only buy golden age comics, but i prefer low grade issues that present well and i never have them graded
That's really cool. I hope to add some raw golden age comics to my collection someday. It would be cool to carefully flip through and read them. 👍
Yeah, that promise collection was Awesome! Out of my price range too! But nice to look at. Both books are great pick-ups! I bet you love Christmas with all the unwrapping!
Christmas is one of my favorite holidays. How did you know? 😉🤣
@@KarensPages just a lucky guess! Sorry for the delay in response, I wasn't receiving any notifications.
Welcome to RUclips! I’m fairly new myself. Great video!
Thank you!
I used to have a copy of that - such a great cover.
It certainly is! Thank you for your comment! 👍
OMG love Wonder Woman, she is by far my favorite super hero, what a fantastic cover
Wonder Woman is awesome! This cover definitely stood out to me! Thank you so much for your comment! ☺
"Pull my finger!"😮😁😊
If you don't understanding this, ask an older man.
@@chuckiesjamochashake No, I understood it. 😄
It’s really ironic and sort of humorous that you chose to talk about amazing spider man 66 as that is my absolute favorite cover of the entire run. I can remember the same feeling I had as you when I laid eyes on the cover I thought how vivid the colors were and how awesome the art was.
Also I wanted to choose Wonder Woman as my first golden age book and your channel was the first time I learned of Sensation Comics 35 😊
There is something about ASM 66 that just pops. It's a great cover...the colors are vivid, the simplicity of the two characters (hero vs villain), and I love how imposing Mysterio looks. Romita was a master. I absolutely love Golden Age Wonder Woman comics. I love the art of H. G. Peter. Thanks for watching and commenting! 😊
Anyway, Karen, congratulations on your sensation Comics. I am very happy for you.. well, I would like all star comics 8 one day, but remember I’m not in the restaurant business anymore. If I want something good I have to sell something good.. I still have the death of Gwen Stacy she was always my favorite female character Harley Quinn is number 2 . I have amazing Spider-Man 121 and. 122 they are both 9.8. . I still have amazing Spider-Man. 1 6.5 X-Men.1 7.0 fantastic four 48 9.6 tales of suspense, 39, 8.5. . Amazing fantasy 15 which I told you before I have two copies.. and I have the first issue of Superman and Batman. They are both 5.0 restored the superman has no trimming, moderate professional. Thank you for your comment on amazing Spider-Man. 1 6.5 that sold for $11,600 that has to be total. BS . Because I told you I collected for many years and that book never sells for under $25,000. I told you I have a copy.. well have a great day. It’s about 10 AM. I’m just listening to Taylor, Swift, and Tears for Fears.
Hi Bob! Who doesn't want All Star Comics 8, am I right? 😉 You have so many great comics. What are your top 3 favorite comics?
