I always found it funny how one person goes through a box of comics and passes over a book that I want and in my head I’m like “ wait, your not pick that book up?!?!” 😂
Haha I get that a lot!
I’m getting hoarse from screaming at all the killer books you’re blowing by
@@bradforddillman7671 I can’t buy them all!
I’m like that too, I’m watching and saying I want that, I want that and I want that issue too. Lol
@@bradforddillman7671same!
There was a short period in the 70s…..Everybody was Kung Fu Fighting.
I was given 13 long comic book boxes and I do have secret wars II #5. I know very little about comics and I am glad I found your channel. Keep up the good content!
I need Jeff's comic book truck to come to my town!
Saw quite a few that I wouldn't have passed on.
That’s what I need, a large U-haul truck to store my comics and then one day drive around to Flea Markets to sell them! 😁
I NEED that Jurassic Park!😄
Ladies and Gentlemen, the legend himself has posted once again🤝🏻💪🏼
It's a good day when a comic book RUclipsr post
I saw that Dreadstar..
" and what about you?"
😉
That starslayer had a Mike Grell cover, the artist that got me collecting back in the day.
👍
Thats for sharing. Cool scores.
Nice haul and variety of books!
That detective 737 was a pretty good deal. Early Harley in continuity.
Great video as usual! Remember Don't feed the trolls!
that weird tales is amazing i love hp lovecraft nice finds mike
Thank you as always friend. I saw so many comics I wanted 😂
I like that deadly hands of Kung fu
I remember going to the local flea market with my allowance in the 80's.. of course it had nothing to do with collecting for value but just the love of comics.
Very nice bunch of book. Love that Kung Fu book and the first appearance of Silver Sable. I have a few of her with Deadpool. Good video Mike!
Great hunting. I have to get to Brimfield at some point. My wife used to go every year.
Your pick ups are awesome
Another great video!!
Happy Monday to the LMC Fam hope everybody finds there grail an has a good week!
Aweosme video man, keep up the dope finds!
First issue of Dreadstar is cool! I got a great penciled and inked original drawing of Vanth Dreadstar from Jim Starlin back in 2005 at Wizard World Philly. And that Atari Force #1 is a damn good read.
I think I saw some cool 🔑 hiding
Deadly hands of Kung Fu, nice.
I had no idea it existed. I'm going to look into that title. I like black and white comics, so I might like it a lot.
Man that guy has neverending comic books.
Love your videos! I’m sitting here in Oklahoma, thinking why don’t we have antique and comic book shows like the kind you have in your part of the country. Lol
At 1:44 Witchblade #1 Michael Turner cover.
Colleen Wang and Misty Knight i think too were the best Marvel characters besides Daredevil in the Iron Fist, Luke Cage and the Defenders series.
You missed Birds Of Prey: Black Canary/Oracle #1, the first official team appearance of the Birds Of Prey - well worth getting.
The first six issues of Starslayer are Mike Grell at this best but the presence of the Rocketeer is the real highlight for me; Dave Stevens was such a hugely talented writer and artist.
The Lovecraft poem in Weird Tales is posthumous, possibly a reprint, as HPL died in 1937, but still, to own an original issue of Weird Tales pre-1950 would be amazing.
Thankyou Mike for acknowledging the worth of Marvel's b/w 1970s magazines, an area of the hobby with so many collectors ignore or are even disdainful of. Yet a lot of great stories were published in these magazines including significant first appearances (such as Satana and Star-Lord); also, the titles covered a wide range of characters from Dracula and Morbius to the Hulk and comics adaptations of famous SF novels and short stories.
I saw so many small key issues that on my to get list:
Crisis on infinite earths #7
Wolverine Weapon X
Wolverine #10
What I love seeing is completely random longboxes, that have no alphbetical or company order, makes the thrill of maybe seeing a personal grail that much sweeter.
The house is a great H.P. Lovecraft poem. It didn't matter what he wrote, it kept you engulfed. Way ahead of his time.
Hey, congratulations on your haul . I am Bob in Connecticut and obviously somebody with that many comic books. Of course he has some kind of clue of the value. Most people do not have a clue because when I was a bartender in Connecticut people left in my face when I told them I buy X-Men Spider-Man Iron Man.. well the comicon in New York is bigger than the Super Bowl. I was just at the Connecticut comic con on Friday. The Mohegan Sun.. you’re definitely never going to get a good deal on the super key. That’s like hitting lotto.. well, I was a bartender I don’t work anymore I don’t have that many, comic books left. Well, I still have my amazing fantasy 15. 6.0 I bought that years ago New York City for $4000. Yes I know the fair market value is $80,000 plus I was offered more than that from a comic book store in Connecticut. I’m not selling it.. I have another copy 8.0 restored no trimming I bought that when I was a kid as raw copy for only $450 yes I know it’s in the $30,000 range right now. I still have my first Iron Man tales of suspense 39, 8.5 I bought that for $5300.. that book sold a little more than a year ago on Comic Link for $120,000. Yes, right now I could only get about $70,000 if I sold it.. I still have amazing Spider-Man 1 6.5 I paid $4200. They just sold a copy on eBay $35,000.. fantastic four 48 9.6 I bought this on eBay for $3600 and that is in the $40,000 range. X-Men. 1 7.0 I bought this raw years ago for only $300.. I also still have Superman 1 5.0 moderate professional restoration no trimming I paid $12,500 . Batman. 1 5.0 restored I paid $10,500.. you are never ever ever ever ever going to see prices like this again if you want the good stuff, you have to be very wealthy like Vin Diesel Eminem people like that they have the good stuff.
Nothing beats bagging comics while watching LMC....
I got that 1st Rocketeer for $1 about 20 years ago. I really wasn't collecting at the time but I was at an antique flea market and a guy had tables set up with just dollar comics, so I went through and picked out all the keys I knew from collecting 10 year prior. The TMNT 3 (1st) sitting on top because it was too big, is what got me digging. I pulled about 100 comics probably worth $5k total then.
I went to the same flea market a couple weeks ago and pulled a Marvel Spotlight 32 (1st Spiderwoman) and Sentry 1 for $15 total.
I would love if you did a video over the 2099 series like Spider-Man, doom, or punisher :)
I would love that as well!
I saw Captain America 241 and you passed it by! My heart dropped when your fingers just passed it by! Augh! Noooo! Oh well great video just wanted you to know that you passed by a Captain America 241! Why? Would you pass on that cover? The horror! I must be mad because no comic collector would pass on a Captain America 241!
Your friend who may go blind Greg!
Haha I get so many comments like this. There are many reasons why I don’t get a book: cost, condition, I already own it, or I just don’t want it! That book has a simple answer, I don’t like the Punisher lol.
Omg never run up on anything like that. So many issues I would want.
Crazy prices. I was about to go today but I'm definitely too broke.
It’s always fun just to walk around. I think the comic truck is leaving today
Wow, what a mix of books, loved to see those GI Joe and Transformers books
Nice picks Mike! Love the Deadly Hands of Kung Fu! I had quite a few of those books. Looked like it was in pretty good shape. Congrats!
I currently am looking for Starslayer 2 and 3. Just picked up the 3rd, 4th and 5th appearances of the Rocketeer. Plenty of chances to buy online but I want to find them in the wild. Funny I click on video and like a boss you just fan through a box and there is issue 2. Lol.
That’s a coincidence. Maybe it’s a sign you’ll find one!
thank you for showing us a part of the collection, Mike! :)
I've been looking for that Secret Wars 2 #5 for a while! As a fan of the X titles and a New Mutants completionist I want that!
So many good books 😭🖤 it's almost overwhelming how much stuff he had! Wish someone had a stash like that in VA
I liked the Iron Fist show.
Love that Weird Tales Mike, we just don’t see them too often in the UK. Picked up The Spectre #1 and 2 because of you 😂
That deadly hand of kung fu is a very cool book. The fact that it’s in such great condition the way you picked it up is surprising. If I recall in the video, it was almost half moon shaped. I am surprised that it didn’t cause a crease down the middle.
Yeah it was forced into a normal box and it’s wide so it was a bit curled, but it didn’t hold that shape. I was shocked too
Like em all,but twist my arm and id have to pick the weird tales as im also a big lovecraft fan
That Weird Tales looks awesome, and I'm really digging that Deadly Hands of Kung Fu. Great haul, Mike!
Im Blown Away You Left Amazing Spiderman 252 Sitting There
😮😱😮😱😮
But The Rocketeer is Bad Azz Tho... I Still Got My Movie Ticket Stub An Gnarly Watch From The Disney Channel 👍
It wasn’t a real ASM 252, it was a reprint
As children, we're told not to go into stranger's sketchy vehicles with a promise of receiving goodies.
As adults... comic books in a nondescript box truck in a rural field? Yeah let me get in there!
Excellent haul! Well done!
That truck is just comic heaven. Nice pick-ups, great books.
Mike you are an all around cool dude and hope to bump into you at one of the NE shops or maybe even brimfield this fall. As a fellow Lovecraft enthusiast I was psyched to see you find that weird tales! Thank you so much for sharing your great picks ups and adventures along the way!
Great pickups. Love the matching card and comic style of collecting.
Great finds love your videos. I know it is a far drive but megabrain comics in Rhinebeck Ny is a great shop and they have a very cool arcade attached.
I hope on the return trip you picked up B’Wana Beast. Otherwise it was a waste of time.😂😂😂
Lunch money comics,you missed Scud#1 it's about a $100 comic and there was a second appearance of Harley Quinn you missed too. You got some good stuff and it is impossible to know all the Keys cause I have passed on a first app of Penguin and some low print Spawn books and a that I didn't know what they where.
Eh, can’t catch ‘em all!
@@lunchmoneycomics yep well I passed on a rare wolverine book that I didn't know what it was at the comic con for cheap and I saw it on eBay going for over $800 and wanted to cry,but it is impossible to know every single key issue.
Those look great! Clark Ashton Smith and Robert Bloch in that Weird Tales on top of all the other names, wow, the elder gods must have given you luck in finding that. Very interested to see what you got on your second trip.
Great haul. Haven’t been to Brimfield this year yet. Hopefully in the fall. I love the Weird Tales pulp. That’s a deep rabbit hole! Coincidentally one of the authors on the cover Robert Bloch wrote Psycho. Also love the oversized Marvel magazines. The black and white art is just awesome.
Good Evening Michael
The little yellow comic shop that could, the guy need a medal for his dedication. I was side by side with you going through those books. Was that a Bionic woman #1. Anyway full marks for your haul. I saw some of your haul on Brandon's live show, That Weird Tales was brilliant. How will you conserve it? They are so touchy those pulps. Love the Rocketeer fir appearance. I had a great Rocketeer graphic novel at one time, but had a rush of blood in a downsizing. Such is life! Keep up the great work.
Cheers Al TheGoldkeyfourcolorkidownunda
ASM #265 is a great pick-up!! Got a CGC 9.4 with Mark Jewelers insert years back, and won't part with it! A lot of potential with the Silver Sable!!
Nice pickups! Can't wait to see the other book that you went back and got!
Do we get to see a Terrificon haul soon?
Definitely coming but probably a few weeks out since I’m on vacation right now.
Today I just picked up Green lantern 60
And Superman 199 for $50
Good deals!
You into Bloodstone? I got some of those Rampaging Hulk magazines with back up stories with him
Not too much, but I seem to always come across that book. I like Elsa more.
@lunchmoneycomics That happens to me too.
so many things I would have gotten!
Why is Alpha Flight 1 not a more sought after book? …hope you already a good copy of Spider-Man 2099 to blow right by those
I definitely do, and in the next video you’ll see more about those 2099s
What were The Prices? 💵💵💵

Subscribed!
Thanks so much, I hope you enjoy the channel!
I remember picking up that Amazing Spider-Man 265 off of a pharmacy rack when I was 8. Those Spidey issues, along with Web Of, Spectacular and GI Joe issues during that time were what hooked me into comics for life. Seeing that era of Spideys brings back some great memories.
What section of the Brimfield Antique show map is his Truck located?
He’s located in Grand Trunk
You past up a Scud number 1. If that’s a first print it’s a $200 dollar book. The first print is very hard to find. The second print is only worth $15-20.
Were those first Cable books reprints?
Yes, gold cover gives it away.
You skipped over some pretty cool books without pause. The prices were pretty high tho so I’m guessing that’s why. Pretty sure I saw ultimate Spider-Man 1, some Neil Adams action comics superman covers etc.
Yeah the prices he had definitely weren’t what he sells them for, but even at cheaper prices I can’t buy everything, wish I could!
@@lunchmoneycomics I feel ya. You guys over there on the east coast have a strong comic community it seems. Lots of flea markets, and places where people sell comics. I live in ca and all I have is comic shops with high prices. I live in San Diego and only con we have is comic con and it’s impossible to get into because it sells out so quick
@@irishdylan1993Irish Dylan from San Diego that's funny shit brah
LEaves behind a Young Romance comic? Say it ain't so.
They are very cool, but on a budget I’m not willing to pay too much for them
I can’t believe he just flipped right past that Ms Marvel #1 off the rip for only $20
The amount of great stuff skipped over should be criminal
Collecting on a budget, I can’t buy them all!
Is Brimfield open this week (week of 8/1)? I see the August 30 to Sept 4 but see no mention of this week.
No, it’s open for those two weeks, so it opens again in September
How could you pass up on scud the disposable assassin? 2:29
UGH YOU SHOULD HAVE GRABBED THE BIONIC WOMAN...
hey, i picked up a tarzan comic only to find out it was a pulp magazine . Do you know of any resources for pulp magazines ?
I actually don’t know much about pulps, besides specific ones I’m looking for I have to sort of look them up individually.
@@lunchmoneycomics looks like i am starting on a new journey.
Really nice pickups! But, why do you keep saying "...great prices and great deals" and not say what you paid??
I definitely said what I paid (I always do), $50 for everything though it’s hard to break down each book individually because it was a bulk deal.
@@lunchmoneycomics OMG, buddy! I apologize for my mistake. Keep doing more awesome content. I collect comic books also and I absolutely love it. Again, my apologies.
@@mr.pagesfilmsandplastics no problem at all! I usually give the prices individually but I snuck this one in at the very end
What did Spiderman do to you for you to pass up so many good books?!? 🤣
Haha I love Spider-Man, and because of that I already had most of those
So first appearances of Mutants, aaaaand first appearances of characters on Marvel Cards. I think it's time admit you just collect first appearances ;)
Well if the mutant has a card I’ll just admit that I collect card first appearances… which is pretty much everyone so… touché!
Way over-priced.
It doesn’t really matter what prices were marked on the books, he clearly sells them much cheaper.
@@lunchmoneycomics that's good because they were way too high. It's like his price gun was stuck on $15. When I see prices way over value I don't even try to negotiate. It's a turn off for me.
Looks overpriced and not in the best shape.
He sells them far less than what the prices say
Oh ok, that's a relief!
