- I am the idiot who buys more then a Long Box worth of comics at Comic Con and tries to carry them home on the subway haha In this video I hunt for the coolest comic books I can find at New York Comic Con. There were so many amazing Comic Books to see at the Comic Con. Grails, Key Issues, Silver Age Comics, Golden Age Comics, Bronze Age comics and so much more.
Watch as I dig though boxes of comics at the Comic Con and seen which comics I ended up buying.

“Yesterday I bought too many comics and I’m going to do it again today!” Legend.
Haha thats how I roll lol
Love the vendor guy’s comment, “Oh, you’re buying all of those?” Haha
Haha I get that a lot. Another vendor remembered my name today because I bought 100 comics from them yesterday lol
Thanks for taking us along. You are awesome!
My pleasure!!
Can’t wait to see your complete haul video!
It is going to be long and epic.
Sooooooooo many nice books. I'm always amazed that golden-age books can remain in like-new condition for so long.
I know anytime I see Golden Age comics graded in high condition it seems unreal, but its also the reason why they sell for so much.
Congrats on all the awesome finds! Thanks for sharing!
thank you!
You skipped over an Incredible Hulk #181 in the $3 Bin 11:17. Bruh YOU Blew it!
Hahahah everytime I see Hulk comics in the 170s-190s I hope and pray lol but they are a legit comic vendor so I am sure they would have grabbed that lol
@@FMDD168 it was probably a facsimile copy
Amazing haul! Those Plastic Man books awesome! Those Justice League books that you passed had me about to faint.
I know I feel like I should have grabbed those but I think I have most of them already so I had to pass on some stuff just for the sake that I would have to carry it all home on the subway lol. I got about a block away from the con, and hailed a cab before I had a heart attack lol
I been enjoying this comic coverage so much, its so great seeing you go from box to box, being so excited about the comics you find!
I am super happy you have been enjoying the comic hunt with me. I need to find some up coming smaller cons so I can make more videos. Its been a blast.
Amazing finds , great deals. I could almost smell the books watching you going through them.I thought you showed some good restraint. I look forward seeing the follow up post. Enjoy the reads!
I bought so much this year haha but I Always live by the philosophy by as much as I can if the price is great. And if the price is wrong just dont buy.
Thanks for doing these con videos, definitely enjoying them!
You are very welcome.
Thank you for posting all your superb videos! I spent my life in the sports card industry & had stores, ran 10,000+ shows since the 70's. I retired when I got sick and was widowed in 2012. I always had comics in my stores. You have inspired me to collect again! Keep the great content coming! Bless you & your family and friends. Best Regards, Bill
Collecting is always a rewarding hobby. And comics are great because you can read them as well as collect them etc. Welcome back to the hobby.
So much fun to watch, can’t go wrong with Bronze Age and silver age books… 😎
Definitely can't.
Wow!
Best vid ever!!
DC bronze age are my favourite!
Also like bronze marvel too.
A long box of issues!!??
A dream!😀🤓👍
Yeah Bronze age comics are some of my favorite to collect, it not my favorite.
THANK FOR THE WALK THRUE GLAD YOU ENJOYED YOURSELF.
You are very welcome, I had a fantastic fun time this year.
You have good taste in what you picked out.
You remind me of me when I was younger and bought a ton of stuff at every show.
But I was way more organized and always brought my lists so that I instantly knew what issues I needed and those that I already had.
Cheers.
I do most from memory, so the runs I know I am complete on I dont grab much of. For instance I think I only need 3-4 issues left to complete Defenders etc. I should make lists for those runs that are almost done. At the same time I buy so many collections that the super hero stuff I get pretty often so I dont buy it as much. I usually buy the stuff that is not as popular but I still love. That stuff I dont see in collections as often.
If you want the best you have to go where the best is. Great Haul!!! Love the AQUAMAN!
Kinda true, but I also want the best at a great price haha I am finding so many great deals this year.
@@pop-comics I'd be going crazy.
I think I did go Crazy!!!!!!
Thanks for sharing. I love the art work in the more classic American 🇺🇸 comics 👍🏼! Love from the Netherlands 🇳🇱👋🏼!
You are very welcome.
Loved the video, mate! Wife and I love collecting back issues. We have slim pickings where we are, and nothing as grand as comic con to be able to head to! Really enjoyed watching a collector get some great stuff!
I am happy you enjoyed the video, I have been having so much fun this year at comic con. Especially focusing so much on comics.
Conventions are so cool, if for no other reason than vendors get to display so many amazing books to see!!
They really are, you get to see so many books you might not be able to see normally.
Those $3 boxes were unbelievable!
Yeah my mind was kinda blown away when I started digging.
Wow Ziggy, I didn't know you started a separate comics channel at last. I had just been watching Very Gary's channel on his exhibiting at NYCC, which is why I guess UA-cam served your video up. That said, I'm actually surprised you bought so many comics there. I always thought you avoided wizened dealers and only went with the very best deals you got from thrift shops and customers trading at your store. But I see the $3 boxes these dealers have are incredible. My LCS just slaps a $30-$40 price tag on almost anything from the Bronze Age. And yes, always nice to see a few Comics Cons that still actually have...comics!
Yes I got sick of comic videos tanking the main channel which would bum me out since I want to do them all the time. So I finally decided to use my original UA-cam channel and just post comic content here and its been amazing. Definitely be posting comic content way more here now that its own thing going on. And I will buy bargains anywhere I can find them, I spent a small fortune at NYCC this year, but I am also finding an amazing amount of awesome comics for great prices. Yes there is so many over priced booths, but if you look at them all you eventually find the gems hidden away. What I have been doing is the Teen Titans / Aquaman test, I have been trying to put a sets together for a while now (Since I want all the Nick Cardy Covers) so I know the values pretty well off the top of my head. So I check a booths Aquaman / Teen Titan sections and can tell immediately if I will find some awesome stuff for a great price or not. And If I dig into a random $3 box and they show up I know game is on haha
Love those Nick Cardy covers, of course.
Definitely, I purchased so many this time. I need to finally put a check list together to see whats missing.
Love it…”I think I bought too much…but Im gonna do it again.”
haha that is me in a nutshell
Cloud from final fantasy at 0:47👍 that Dark Mansion book reminded me of the times I'd pick up my high school sweet heart from her house. Damn they gave us a rough time. I laughed when you said,"bronze Wonder Woman and a Flopp? That's awesome!"
Part of the fun of comic con is seeing pop culture characters come to live walking around haha
I got a bunch of comics to there! It was awesome!
Awesome! Yeah tons of good prices this year.
Great haul!
Thank you! 😊
enjoyed the video. thanks!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
That video where you show off all that you bought is probably gonna be like 8 hours long! Fantastic stuff.
The most I've ever bought in a day was at a small con, at a 3 for a dollar stand. Got like 250 comics. Really wish I had brought more with me. That was so much fun.
Yeah when you find a booth with $3 books that really should be $5-$20 you just cant stop buying its too hard haha. I have to carry everything home on the subway or taxi so I really have to stop at 100-150 at most, otherwise I kill myself lol I probably could have purchased 1000s more if I had a way to transport more easily.
Great pick ups
I think so too, tons of fun stuff.
LOL the grade is low but the price is good that's what he said lol ! great job thank you for sharing!
Haha
Great comic book s
I agree hehe
Lots of great choices. There was an Adventure 431 at about 21:47, 1st Spectre in the series, maybe you passed due to condition. I remember when that Flash 100-page issue was on the stands back then, I passed on it though because a 25-cent Superboy & the Legion was more affordable (bought that instead). Thanks for the video.
I think I have two copies of that Adventure comic in my collection so not really hunting it. Probably should have grabbed it lol but I had the speculator part of my brain turned off and the I need this for my collection part turned on lol
Thanks for taking us on the ride. Great finds. Love it.
Going to LA con in December.
Good luck at the con, its a blast hunting for comics at cons.
Been watching your vids in prep for a con I'm going to this weekend, and I'd probably die on the spot if I came across a table as good at the one 7 mins in. Loooove me some Bronze Age Marvels!! And Jack Kirby Fourth World books for $2.50??? Insane lol
I Know that table was crazy, and it was the second day if I remember. I could not help myself and bought a long box worth without thinking how the heck will i get them home lol
Awesome, thanks again!
You are very welcome.
Such great stuff, missed going this year but can live vicariously through this!
I am happy you can join the hunt with me through the videos.
Love All Those Golden,Silver,& Bronze Age Comic's. " You" Have Good T , in , C. Awesome Find's. Would Love To Pick' Up $3.00 Silver Age X-Men's But Im Wishing On A Star. 😆
Oh man $3 silver X-Men would be a dream
The long boxes were cool, but really thought the slabs were the best.
Yes there was some amazing slabs for sale at the con. One day I will buy more haha
Great energy and awesome haul dude. Subscribed!
Thank you and I really appreciate the sub.
Great video, lots of nice finds. Cheers!
Thank you, it was fun!
WOW ! That plastic man run is 🤯🔥
Definitely!
Awesome seeing flip through the boxes. Going through boxes like that is my favorite thing in the world.
Loved seeing some Kirby books there. I would've picked up them all up, specially the few OMAC and Machine Man. You got all of those already?
Thanks for sharing all of this man.
Yes I believe I have most if not all the Omac and Machine man otherwise I would have grabbed those. Anything Kirby is a must own in my book but has been for a long time so I have picked them up over the years. Mostly need to fill in my FF runs now.
@@pop-comics Holy cow! My respects and hat's off to you sir. Not only for having such an amazing collection (how many issues do you have), but for having such good memory to know which ones you have and which ones you're missing.
I try to sort and thin out a few times a year to weed out duplicates but I probably have 70K comics or so. But there is probably 20K duplicates, that is one reason I am trying to make more room for comics in my shop so I can sort them out faster by selling more and making room to put duplicates into the shop lol
Awesome vid as always! Also when are you planning on making a profile picture for this channel?
Thank you. Yeah I think its been around a month since I started posting comic videos here instead of my main channel so its still a work in progress but I am racing towards the goat of 1000 subs and 4000 watch hours to get monetized so I will definitely be sprucing up the channel alot pretty soon. First goal was to get content out there that actually gets some views, second goal is to hit those targets. Then hopefully I can do Comic content regularly.
Good runs of the flash and world’s finest not bad at all.
Yeah was super fun to find for a great price.
Great Haul
Thank you! 🤗
I've purchased a long box before. I had a portable cart which I was able to strap to my back and then fold out to handle the long box. It was a hassle to go up down the stairs of the subway but it worked.
haha the crazy things us comic collectors do to get comics home from a convention lol I want to see if they make a high quality back pack that can turn into a rolling cart, that is my goal before the next con.
Cos play as zorg i see very nice
I went all 4 days so I also went as Sirius Black, Dracula and Commissioner Gordon.
The golden age guru.... shout-out to Jeff
Yeah it was fun to see him in person.
Have you ever considered getting a booth yourself on the con? I bet you could unload a ton of pops there over the weekend. But it's probably crazy expensive to get a booth.
One day I will sell there, to help pay for all the junk I buy but also to have a place to store everything I buy haha
I believe you a bit of a hoarder, but I like what you bought at the convention.
Sure I love to hoard comics they go up in value over time and they bring my so much joy. I also have a pop culture shop that sells a long box or two of comics a month. Not a ton but keeps the hoarder pile from over flowing. I am working on my shop this month to build out the comic section so i can get 10-20K into the shop for sale. You can check out shop videos on my main channel Pop Fun To Play
Dc books rock. Great taste
I love Bronze and Older DC so many wonderful covers.
Im gonna win on roulette and get all my comic books back from the pawn shop today.
Good luck, I want you to get your comics back and then buy a ton more with your won fortunes!
What's good ng on great show ..it's hard to not buy to many comics but there's some good deals going
Yeah honestly if I had a car or and a place right by the convention to drop stuff off I probably could have bought so much more. I bought too much haha but the deals were great.
Dc for stories and marvel for characters
I am a little bit of both.
Also it’s important to mention the increased space is that they reduced floor space in general to vendors. Plus plenty of some of the heavyweight vendors just didn’t sign on in the first place. I personally couldn’t give my tickets away for free. Do you feel that comics selling aspects of the convention satisfied the comics dealers needs?
I know there was less vendors because the aisle where much wider, did they make the booths smaller for each vendor? I felt like the booths were the same size as normal I had not noticed them being smaller. I personally found so many comics I wanted this year for a good price so I thought it was fantastic. I talked to a few vendors some said they had a banner year, others said it was lower then before but still decent business.
👏👏👏
Thanks :)
MEGA SCORE!
Yeah so many amazing comics for the price.
@@pop-comics great deal you'd be hard pressed to find that round my parts.
Yeah, sometimes when you see deals like that you got to grab all you can handle.
So many cheap books in the States, especially east coast. No doubt it would be double the amount or more in Canada, for worse quality. I am taking into account the exchange rate.
There are a ton of comics in the New York area.
Good haul! You'll double your money or more on the books not going in the PC.
Yeah I think almost every book I got was worth at least double what I paid. Most going into the PC for now but I am sure I have some duplicates.
I dont think I would have had the willpower to not buy all those bronze hulks
I have almost all the Bronze hulks now except for 181 so its easier for me to hold back since I dont need them. Otherwise I would have grabbed all those too haha
This is amazing. How much did it cost you total?
I spent a small fortune this con, way more then I planned too but I found so many great deals.
YIKES, You put back some comics from the $3 buck boxes that I would have loved for my collection: MASTER OF KUNG FU (pre #122), KID COLT OUTLAW, INCREDIBLE HULK by LEN WEIN or BILL MANTLO, random BATMANs by DAVID VERN REED and that BATMAN issue where he teams up with The JOKER! I almost had a heart attack watching you pass them up for the BARRY ALLEN FLASH and pre Perez WONDER WOMAN?!
(GOOD LORD *choke*)
I was only half kidding. I love watching your videos, you`re not obsessed with " keys" or trends but buy either for your shop or your own collection and it's so refreshing! I probably have a bunch of keys in my collection but they're not for sale because I didn't hold onto them for profit anyway! Happy reading...or whatever!
I had to carry everything home so I had some limits, I already had those in my collection so I had to pass up some decent stuff.
Oh yeah the Batmans were pretty beat yup too if I remember, normally I would grab older batmans for $2.50 that a steal.
Do you read all of the comics?? That is alot of reading if you do. I guess I never understood collecting comics
I collect because I absolutely love the artwork. And as a collectible the fact that I can read them as well and get additional value and enjoyment out of them makes them so much more fun to collect then a lot of other things. I do read when I can but not as often as I would like.
Could someone tell me how much does a ticket for the ny comic con cost?
it should say so on their website I think
How much did you spend, if i may ask?
A fortune haha
Ik im late but I just brought me like 7 comics books not in order well 3 books in order but the rest is random they all dc beside one is marvel don’t like marvel but it was free but I can’t wait to go back to buy some more they had a lot of shit
Very cool, always fun to buy more comics.
@@pop-comics did they had Scp comics books or they don’t have any
@@TakeshiKovacss I am not familiar with that comic so not sure.
@@pop-comics damn bet do I have to read comics book in order or it don’t matter cuz I’m a beginner just started reading it
Was it a case of more aisle space, but less Stalls?
Yes, I think about 20-30% less vendors so much wider aisle which was wonderful.
Good luck my friend Kurt has a booth again this year he had won in 2019 he has won this year check them out
Which booth is his? I will have to look for it.
Did you buy any Archies at all.
Not that many, just a handful at this con. I am mostly looking for 10 cent archies and most are graded and too expensive. I did finally find some sweet ones today in the $10-$15 range.
I would have grabbed all those Aquaman's!
I definitely did haha
