Love the "this is my budget". Two minutes later, spends 3 times the budget! Lol, I really enjoy the longer videos. It feels like I'm at the Con with you digging
Haha yeah destroyed that budget in seconds but honestly the deal was too good not to.
Thank you for making these videos! I feel like I'm actually there!!! So much fun.
I'm so glad! I love filming them.
so uh...350 budget huh :) Love it, thanks for posting!!
My plans failed very quickly lol
Thanks for showcasing my pickups 1:29:47!! Your energy for comic collecting is quite infectious lol.
You are very welcome, its so much fun when I can make videos and collect with other people.
Thanks for Sharing!

Con videos are my favorite to film and create.

@@pop-comics i love the vids man. especially the nyc comic con digging. so many awesome wall books in that one shot early on
I really enjoy filming them so much, so it makes me extremely happy others can enjoy them with me.
Too bad I missed this event! But thanks to your videos I was able to experience it! Thank you
It was fun. I do try to film it in a way so you kinda feel like you can at least see what you missed out on for next time.
Awesome vid! I really like the segments where you show what other people at the con are picking up.
Most definitely, its super fun seeing what other folks are finding in their hunts.
This dude rocks and great footage. Your bringing me back to my childhood!
Thank you, happy you enjoyed the con footage. I love filming con videos.

I always have fun at the Big Apple Con
Glad I can live vicariously through this channel. I'm way too poor to be going to comic cons super often, unfortunately. I love seeing the variety of stuff each vendor has!!
I love bringing everyone along to the cons though video. Happy you enjoy them.
Fun to watch!
Thank you :) It was a fun day.
Hey Pop comics and all in the chat
Greetings.
Cool Books Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
It was cool meeting you,I was the guy with the signed black Cat slab. Thanks for including me in the video.
Thank you for joining the video, it was a ton of fun. And you are very welcome.
WOW i loved every min
Fantastic happy you enjoyed :) Convention videos are my favorite.
what a wonderful vid!!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Just came across your channel. Those Captain Britain’s Especially 8 is a grail for me that am still on the hunt for
I know I have been after a 1 and 8 cheap for years, so happy to get a complete 1 now probably need to pay up to get an 8
Hi Sean!! Never saw a copy of FLIPPEY & Flop at a Con!! You go and turn-up SEVEN copies!! Genius... Fun seeing you at another Con!
Yeah rare cartoon book, I grabbed the stack fast. I think he has more for me at a future date.
40:58! nice to see another female collector! Exquisite Taste!🎉
She was grabbing some beautiful books.
Great video - when you were flipping those Golden Age slabs/etc in the last 10 minutes I was drooling 🤤- I absolutely love the cover on that Crossword Schomburg book you bought at the end.
Yeah I had not really taken a deep dive into his booth until the end of the con, he had some really amazing stuff. The Schomburg Crossword Puzzle Book is amazing.
Wow!! There isn't enough time in the day to go through that place! Absolutely incredible books everywhere! New sub here, really enjoyed this and thanks so much for taking us along!
Yeah there is a ton at the convention, I try my best to triage the show early on to decided what booths I want to check out first and which ones I will leave for last or skip.
Sean this is very KOoL video...really enjoy your comic venture's... one wish ...too show more of the odd ball collectibles like those framed FAN Mail in premium's. I would never see this kind of stuff here in CANADA ... NY is the place too be to see all the AWESOMENESS...
I do love those oddball ephemera stuff, I try to show it one I see it.
Hey Ian ! Hey Carl ! I bought books from those two all the time !
Yeah two great guys.
Good stuff. Liked the Archie comics. 👍
Archie stuff is great
In the 90s, I passed up buying X-Men #1 as a kid. It was probably a 5 or 6. They were asking $400. ☹️
I wish I had bought a few big books like that back then. So cheap compared to todays prices.
Man.... Fun Video! For the box at the 1:23:42 mark I would have asked how much to buy everything. Insane deals for those conditions. Alot of profit to be made!
Yeah that box with $20 Golden Age Book was pretty amazing.
Thanks a lot, Sean! Your comic con videos are the best! So much fun and great comic books here! Also, I didn't know they did a comic book version of Gay Pur-ee at 1.01.20. And those Disney comics would have been very difficult to resist.
You are very welcome. And yeah at the price he wanted I just could not say no.
@@pop-comics I would have jumped on those 10c dells too.
Yeah it was a no brainer at that price.
HI, just stumbled on your channel, nice digging and awesome finds! Also just wanted to point out you walked 55:01 straight past one of my favourite skateboarders (Mike Valllely) from the late eighties! So cool!😎
That is very neat!
Been here ❤😮
It is a fun show.
Thanks so much for making this video. That was a real walkthrough for a comic con. I love looking at the actual comics and merchandise.
I envy you for that Disney Deal. Most of my collection is Copper/Bronze/Modern Super-Hero Books but I've been losing interest. More and more I've been getting drawn into the Golden Age Comics, especially the Duck Books. The issues with the Barks/Buettner/Kelly combination had this charm to them, almost magical.
Its how I love to film it, so you feel like you seen most of it be the end of the video. and yeah i have been getting more into Genre stuff lately and less super hero. So feel you on the Disney Books.
Merry Christmas NYC!
6:36 That Four Color #79 Mickey Mouse in The Riddle of the Red Hat comic from 1945 by Carl Barks has always been a favorite of mine.
I bought my copy of it at our local City Wide Garage sale for just $70 a few years ago. One of the funnest Golden Age Carl non duck Barks comics of that era.
Amazing, I did not have a copy yet so thrilled to get it.
@@pop-comics Yeah you can tell from the first panel that it’s not a Floyd Gotfredson Mickey Mouse story with it’s Barks touches to it, especially with the fluidity to the characters and their full range of facial expressions.
Your amping me up lol I will have to read it.
I was at this show, makes me wish I had a Time Machine and double the budget to go back and get all the good stuff I missed
*Saw myself digging in the background- this video is officially the best 😂
Yeah there is always more to see then you have time to look at. I spent the entire day at this show and I kept finding things I wanted as a good deal. What I would say is use it as a learning experience, and take the things you missed or regret as a guide book for the next time. Hit those vendors that had books at prices you wanted to pay first. They are more likely to have things you want next time.
@@pop-comics I definitely got all I could get and then some, but I just loving seeing you dig through boxes that I know I dug through. I just wish I had infinite budget really, you can never have enough comics
Oh yeah me too, there is always so much I want to get haha
I KNOW I saw UFOUR COLOR (UNCLE SCROOGE # 1 and THOUGHT I saw UNCLE SCROOGE #2. Surprised you passed on those!! Also surprised your grabbing-up EC's which I thought you don't enjoy. A bit confused but still a good Video!!
I already have Scrooge #1, his was a bit better shape then the one I had but was not ready to buy a duplicate. And I love EC stuff, amazing artwork. I just hate reading them lol but the covers are some of the best in the Golden Age. Amazing artwork so I buy them all the time. They are pricey though so not the easiest to find in the sub $100 price range.
At 1.10.56 is an italian Autocat and Motormouse from Williams Publishing. Their swedish branch published lots of fun comic books in the first half of the 70s. I have decided to collect as many of them as I can.
Oh very neat, not familiar with them but I want to become a lot more familiar with international comics.
@@pop-comics Williams had it's orgin in the european division of Classics Illustrated and was bought by Kinney National Company in the late 60s. They belonged to Warner Communications for a few years before they began to sell or shut down all the european branches.
Thanks for the info.
@57:20 my fave comic RUclips channels collide. It’s @cartoonistkayfabe, Ed Piskor. I wished you stayed longer and interviewed Ed. The guy is a charismatic bottomless pit of comic knowledge.
Yeah was a bit bummed I did not end up getting signed comics from Jim and Ed, just was kinda busy and did not want to wait in the line.
Great deal on the Disney comics, that guy gave it away. You should do well reselling them.
Yeah the Disney Lot was a no brainer. Gonna pull out the ones I need for my pc and or upgrades then sell the rest. Last time I sold duplicates I got $5-$20 each pretty easily. Also that box had a bunch of older more expensive ones but those I probably need.
💙
Thanks :)
Oops. Sean I made a mistake it's the first admantium. Avengers 66 not vibranium 🎉 Hey tomatoes tamatoes it's a first 😂
Haha I 100% knew what you were talking about I was thinking Wolverine not Black Panther when you said that.
This outing proved yours and jasons intimate life. You go ballistic and premature. Jason goes nice and slow like chef from south park. You missed out on a lot of opportunities because of this like the Captain Easy at 46:48. Thats just a piece you left behind. Hope you toss and turn tonight thinking about what you could've had 😬
That vendors prices are typically high, at 46:29 you see a Teen 21, it was priced at $250, I purchased one in better condition a few months ago for half the price. I was just showing his cool books but was most likely not buying anything from him because I knew I could get it cheaper. Captain Easy 12 is a lovely book, but I would like it to be a bit higher grade for $100. I don't buy just to buy even if its an amazing book, I look for the coolest or rarest books for the best price I can find. Hence why I will buy entire boxes of books if they are priced at 50-60% off market value but not a cool book that is 10-40% above market price.
Sean how much were those sketches etc from Dan Parent you looked at?
I am not 100% sure but I know in the past they were $50 He did a nice colored Katy Keen head sketch for $100 during comic con for me so I am thinking its in that range $50-$100.
New sub I always watch your videos and thought I was subscribed already but I wasn't. I had a horrible weekend. I had 90% of my comics stolen over 50k worth. This was devastating I've been collecting these for over 25 years
Oh man I am so sorry to hear that, that is the worst. I really hope they are able to figure out who did it so you can recover some or all. Thank you for the sub, I appreciate that.
@pop-comics the detectives are going through alot of video footage so hopefully they catch the guys
Oh that is good there is video footage, hope it helps.
Hi! I love the videos! By the way I own a rare comic book that I wanted to ask you about. Is there any way to reach you? Hope to hear from you. Thank you!
You can message me on ig, I am pop fun to play on there
57:22 Ed Piskor
Yeah, I wanted to get a book signed by him but he had a line so figured id get one at another time sadly.
Do they have any Rifle Man
Just a few in my collection but none for sale.
Rare comics that you have multiple copies of? How many rare giant-size X-Mens were in the thumbnail? So many rare comics!
Haha that was my Thumbnail, not a rare just expensive comic. What I was after was rare. What I purchased for thew most part was rare.
That dude was like $115 even tho you said $110 cash and wouldn’t go down $5 for books probably no one looked at?
Yeah he was kinda strict on his price, but those are super rare books so it might have been my only opportunity to get them etc. I still can;t figure out the values, that is how rare they are.
The guy with the Black Cat has been awful to deal with in my experience.
At what minute in the video is it? Not sure which vendor you are referring to.
Around 11 minutes
Oh I think those are the guys that run the Heroes con in NC, prices are a tad high but the few times I bought from them they were willing to knock about 10% off and was pleasant transactions. Why was it bad for you?
@@pop-comics I was yelled at by the older gentleman maybe it was a bad day
Oh that is not cool
Hate when I see people put their thumbs on the spine it's the dumbest way to hold a comic any little flex of the book can create a crease
And what about reading them, don't get me started. You can really destroy the comics by enjoying them.
The economy has never been doing better. Lowest unemployment rate in 40 years, stock market the highest, inflation was kept in control. Can I ask you why you think the economy is bad, cuz I’m about to sell sone comics and now I’m worried? I have a bunch of pre code horror and maybe it’s not the time? Also what about super early Disney comics and stories? Like #1? Should I wait? I’m totally estranged in the biz after letting crap sit for 40 years..
Economy for collectibles is in the shitter right now. Worst year for my shop in the last 10 probably. Pre code horror and golden age stuff is hot right now though you could probably sell that easily for a good price.
I’m sorry for misunderstanding what you said. I’m being pressured to sell my EC collection, but do you think I should hold on to the scifi books and just sell the horror? I dig your vids bro. @@pop-comics
Market is very strong for EC stuff right now, if you dont want to sell I am sure they will continue to gain or hold value.@@dirkaminimo4836
What are you on? The economy is awful, with high inflation, record gas prices even when they are 'low', the "lowest" because they are counted jobs we have not GOTTEN back since Covid. Food is gone up, housing is a mess, and we are more in debt than ever. 72% of Americans view us worse now than 4 years ago.
@@Blacksheepcomics Stock market still setting records. Depends on where you are in the economy whether it's good or bad. But it's always bad for those struggling near the bottom. That never changes.
You need to stop charging everything before you get into some serious debt over comics
I buy and sell a ton of stuff and use debt all the time. I don't just buy on cards then that is it, I end up selling other things from my collection to pay for it. The duplicates alone from the 2 wholesale boxes pay for almost 40% of what I spent. Sometimes when the deal is right but I am low on cash I have to jump on it. You don't get deals every day, but I can make more cash every day.
That’s sad comic convention no cosplayers sucks cbcs pgx egs doesn’t get same value as cgc books as it should be collectors buy cars no one grades cars except for person buy it and sell it
There are cosplayers I just dont really have interest in covering it at conventions. Plenty of other channels cover stuff like that.
You overpaid on a lot of stuff
I am curious which items?
You're way too aggressive digging through the books, pal. If that were my collection, you'd be nursing a split lip.
What are you talking about. I baby the boxes when I dig through them with care lol Maybe the dollar boxes I did through faster but those are dollar books dude.
No coments about Thoro mayor problem and how comic industry has becoming a dark side industry somehow.. ?
Drama sales, indie is a safe survival topic ...anyways .
i know u don't want to be on the side of controversy,
Actually controversial topics don't invite u rhis days to talk about the hobby, I got that ...
Ur a smart dude Now doubt
With all respect hope u get right a constructive criticism.
👍
Really not sure what your are saying, sorry about that.
Hey pop can you do a video with a manga tuber about Japanese comics? I’d totally watch
I dont really know any personally but I do want to do more Manga content. I need to film a Manga haul soon.
What I LOVE MOST about your videos is when you are flipping through short boxes how you completely BLOW BY every book I would want to stop and look at!!! Lol @comic_ronin 🫨
Your probably looking for something I already have lol But also 100s of other people are there looking too so got to be fast to find the treasure otherwise you will loose out on the best deals.
