I have no doubt this will break the record of most expensive comic book:

Saw a local news story on this guy and his auction. Will be cool to see where it ends.

I still can not believe that this is up on eBay instead of at an auction house. Wow.

Seriously. 1% will go to the Reeves Foundation. 10% will go to eBay!

The a Royal Canadian Mint has done Superman coins in the past, including a $75 gold coin based on Superman #1, but the new collection has probably the best coin design of the series:

Officially The world's largest comic book collection (at least in terms of quantity of items rather than value):

Humble Bundle is a site where you can get e-comics, books and games for low cost, sometimes only limited by how much you want to pay. Some of the proceeds go to the charity of the publisher's choosing. Right now, the big thing (for me anyway) is a whole whack of Valiant Comics.

Valiant Comics were big in the early '90s and has come back in a big way in the last couple years. Their Humble Bundle gets who a whack of their current books and some of their older reprints for as much as you want to pay. If you pay at least $15, you get the whole kit.

Excellent pickup. The Milligan/Allred stuff is very unique.

Well, you knew it was gonna happen with the Avengers movie coming out next year. The Avengers continue the Adamantium/Platinum size collection with the Vibranium edition:

Does anyone know a place that sells prints, like frame-worthy stuff, of good comic artists' work? I'm not looking for posters, but I'm not looking for $300 limited runs.

I love comic art. Seeing that McFarlane cover reminds me that I need to get something nice. Like a Miller, McFarlane, Bolland, or Gibbons. A little more modern and edgy.


Also, I've got a stack of about 40 books I should probably sell to make more room. Anyone want some graphic novels or trades?
