    Thank you so much! I’m 44. I collected HEAVILY in the 80s and early 90s. Things have definitely changed and I think maybe for the better. Went to my Local LCS today and it felt so good to be back! Thank you again for your videos!

    I like your channel swagglehaus. I got back into comics about a year and a half ago with my childhood collection intact (and in need of maintenance). I love collecting silver/bronze age (nostalgia) but also want to collect a little new. As a completest, the variant world is just evil (lol). I'm having trouble navigating what's coming and how to prioritize.

      I highly recommend Astro City, Geiger, Metal Society and Mindset

    I wholeheartedly agree about finding a writer you like and buying different books authored by them. When I first started collecting I bought anything written by Frank Miller and Alan Moore and was never disappointed.

      Yeah the writers make such a big difference to me too. Donny Cates is the current writer in Marvel that I enjoy the most.

    I've mentioned this before but I'm so confused, Just working out what book is what now is crazy. You have the constant restarting of the popular titles, variant and ratios. That's before you get into all the store exclusive variants. All i wanted was the comic that came after #3 😆

    Thanks for flipping the screen! I so want to know what books are behind your head. I like to imagine they are Hulk 181 and Amazing Fantasy 15.

    Omnibus is the best way to save money on a full storyline if you plane on reading.

      I would check out anything written by Donny Cates, Al Ewing or James Tynion right now.
