  • In this video I talk about a stolen comic book collection coming out of Las Vegas that has really struck a nerve in the comic book community. A widower inheriting her late husbands comics has been stolen. Let's see if we can help get the word out and identify any of the missing books. Big shoutout to all the people on social media and reddit putting together the list of missing books. I highlight some of the golden age ones that might be more identifiable.

    Loved the video!💕 Just started my comic book collection and found Toon Haven. They offer a huge variety of digital comics for every genre, and lifetime updates too!😍

    Someone should reach out to the family for pictures of the slabs. Publish the certificate numbers and have CGC flag them. Similar to how Apple handles stolen devices.

    So was it a theft of opportunity, or was it someone who knew what the collection was worth, i.e. a fellow collector? Whomever it is, they deserve to get caught. Best of luck to this woman and her son.

    Those are some awesome books. I really hope at least some are recovered and returned. Those specific golden age issues don't get submitted everyday, CGC should put something in place to flag their system for some of those issues, especially if more than one appears on a single submission (I'm assuming here they've already been cracked out before they'd be sent in, or it would be easy).

      @jovanwilliams135 that is what a lot of us were thinking. Someone who knew your brother and wife knew what you all had. Have the police turned up anything ? Please let them know what we all suspect about it being someone you knew. Please let me know if anything turns up. Best of luck.

    IMO spreading the word in the community is actually going to hurt the chance of recovering the books. im sure the thief is seeing all the attention his hiest is getting and is now smart enough to crack the cases and get them regraded. i hope im wrong in giving a thief more knowledge than they deserve.

    It's definitely sad and I hope the somehow recover some of the books. It's a shame they didn't have insurance to protect them from this kind of situation. This is why I constantly pound the importance of insuring any collectibles of value.

    Sounds to me like a RUclips fan must have been casing out the collection and waited for the right time. There are so many dirt bags out there I would never open myself up in a public forum like this and put my information out there to get exploited by someone.
