That signed Cap 109 is awesome!
Very nice collection
@@melvincarter9640 Thank you! I may not have an AF 15, but I love what I have!
Great top 50 books and nice Stan Lee autos! Enjoy your week!👍✌️
Thanks man, hope you are well!
Awesome books. It’s nice to see what they mean to you and how much happiness the comics give you. Great collection 👍
Thank you. Comics are the best. Thanks for watching.
Love the Ted Lasso reference 😂
Incredible collection you have here. You may think your collection is “modest” but you are on a whole nother level with your collection, my man! I’m sure it’s all relative, everyone’s collection will be much more or less impressive than someone else’s. I am thrilled for you that you have a collection that you love oh so much! Bravo! 👏
Dan, thanks for being such a great friend in the community. You are right, it is all relative. I embrace the idea of loving the books that we have. And these books are a reflection of the last 13 years of collecting graded comics. The collection should expand drastically over the coming 13 years. I don’t venture on this channel into my action figure collection, but I love those too. 😂
Awesome collection. Love how these make you smile. I feel the same when i show off mine. Thank you for sharing.
@@voodoo626 Collecting is a special thing. Thanks for watching!
Great collection, love your enthusiasm for the hobby!
Thanks so much! Between UA-cam and Instagram, I am having a great time.
Awesome collection buddy! Thank you for sharing!
You’re welcome! Thanks for watching!
Great collection. Thanks for sharing.
@@MoneyVikings Thank you for watching! In the next month or so I am hoping to have a collectible room tour in the home we have lived in the last year and a half.
Beautiful collection, my friend. Much of my collection is also tied to my dad’s collection, and his love of comics. And I intend to pass that comic love on to my nephews.
That’s awesome. Thanks for sharing.
Love it man!
Great video ! You have some great books in your collection well done
Thank you and thanks for watching!
Nice Books. Great Covers Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
Awesome collection and I appreciate your knowledge of each books story. New subscriber here so make more vids!
@@DiversifyYourself Thank you so much!
Well done. You have some great books and signatures. 😎
Thank you, Danny. And thanks for watching.
I'm old enough to be your dad and that marvel two in one annual is one of my all-time favorites as well.
It was one of those books I grew up reading several times. A true testament to the Thing’s courage and strength. Thanks for commenting.
I love your dedication to favourite characters, and the obvious connection you have with collecting and your father. So nice to see.
Favourite characters indeed, since childhood and now well into adulthood. The first CGC book I ever bought was in 2010 for my dad’s birthday. Without his comics from 1979-1986 I don’t know if I ever would have gotten into comic books.
Very cool. Collect 👍🏽
Awesome Top 50! Getting a Stan Lee autographed book is a big goal for me. Seeing that you are just as excited about your Giant-Sized X-Men and Hulk 181 that you got at the Baltimore Comic Con is great! I'm glad I was able to meet you after you picked those up and I hope to see you again this year!
Hey Chris! I actually got a new job back out in Utah so we are moving at the end of July. 😞 That means I won’t be able to continue frequenting Baltimore CC. I’m bummed about that.
Cool collection!!
Thanks, Bills!
Awesome video to help value my old books…thank you!
Thanks for watching!
Wow what amazing collection that is a good set of books
Thanks, WarLord!
Awesome collection, ,✌️
Thank you.
This is a nice collection. You have some very sweet books. The TMNT is fantastic with the remarks. You really are making it hard for me to not go searching for it lol. Nice collection man!
Thank you so much for watching!
Nice collection :) No way I wouldn't rather own a FF 48 than a UK version of FF 3 or a restored Avengers 4! That's a gorgeous 4.5 Hulk 181!
Great collection. Can't believe your UF4 graded a 9.8, that's awesome.
That was wild.
Very nice top 50 collection. Lots of variety. Love the FF 48 and issue 3 UK price variant. But the one I really liked was the 9.8 Marvel Two-in-One Annual 7. Growing up, that was probably my second favorite series behind Avengers, and Annual 7 was one of my favorite reads. Just a great and iconic Thing story.
Hey Tim, yes, Marvel Two-in One Annual 7 is a favorite. That is literally my dad’s favorite comic ever, one he bought off the newsstand in 1982 and we still have that well read copy in the collection. It’s the copy I would have read as a young kid. Thanks for watching.
That was fun. Thanks for sharing.
I've got that Wolvie 4 part set. Didn't realize it was valuable. Canadian pressings though.
Great to see Captain Canuck from Alpha Flight.
If I could afford it, my dream book would be Amazing Fantasy 15.
@@jimgardner5129 I think my next big dream book will be X-Men 1. It might be 3-5 years until I try to do that. When did you buy the Wolverine Limited Series 1-4?
Love that Cap 109! You have great taste in books
Thank you. I love the books I have. It has been a 13 years process curating these graded books.
It's cool revisiting your top 50 a couple years later and hearing you talk about your new additions aquired during that time. Congrats on your Hulk 181 and Giant Size X-men 1.
Thanks, Dan. It’s been fun to see the books I have added that weren’t there two years ago.
Wow! Alot of high grades! I enjoyed seeing many books that are in my collection, but also books not on my radar. I have to say that Marvel Two in One annual is also nostalgic for me. I bought my copy off the rack as a kid, when I was going on a business trip with my father and he gave me a few dollars to buy some comics to read on the drive. It's still in my collection raw. It's a great story that I read over and over, so my copy would grade like a 6.0 . I haven't thought about that book in years, thanks for the walk down memory lane. Great video, you have a new subscriber!!
Thank you so much. Sounds like you have a great collection!
Dr. T. I live in nearby Harrisonburg! Also a university prof. Thanks for sharing your great books.
Most impressive!
@@agentmobius8458 Thanks, Mobius! I’ve made some fun additions since making this video. Nothing super expensive, but really exciting for me.
What an amazing top 50! FF 48-50 are grails of mine that I'll probably never own.
FF 49 in low grade right now is reasonable, though still multiple hundreds. I never thought I would own Hulk 181 or GSXM 1. Patience with my collection has been helpful while loving the books that I have. Thanks for watching.
Awesome collection Dr! Although I'm biased because I have a similar taste in comics. You have 2 of the biggest copper age grails that every marvel comics fan aspires to own. Also FF 48 and 49 are amazing grails and deserve to he in the same tier as the rest of the siver age mega grails.👍👍
While I don’t have any of the 1961, 1962, 1963 first appearance books, you are right about Hulk 181, GSXM 1, and FF 48 and 49!
@@doctortcomics2576 If you never end up getting one of those, I think you still have a great collection.
That said are you planning on picking up any of those in the future? I think now that prices have calmed down somewhat they are back in the realm of possibility. I just picked up a Fantastic Four 1. It's low grade at 2.0 and restored but signed by Stan Lee. For sure it's entry level but I'm so glad to have it.
I'm going to try for 1 more this year. How about you?
Good stuff. I dig the X-Men books. As a 90s kid X-Men 25 was was a highly coveted book. I didn't know but the variant covers.
X-Men 25 was a huge story in 1993. No doubt. I really like the variant covers.
Great Video!
Thanks, Les! Appreciate you watching!
Hey my friend thank you for sharing! What are the bags you have your slabs in?
Sorry for not responding sooner! They are Mylar bags. There are two types of bags I have them in. My favorite Mylar bags for graded books by far are found on eBay through cgc-mylars. They have the best prices and the bags are not overly thick, AND they are resealable versus have to tape them yourself!
@@doctortcomics2576 thank you Doc!
captain and wolverine annual is hot.. 🔥 let alone that captain america origins with the "Late Great Stan Lee" autograph...!!!!! 🎉
Thanks for watching! I’m grateful to have the Avengers 4 and Cap Annual 8.
Great collection... Something to be proud of... My best comic I inherited from my grandfather who was the original owner was Marvel Family #1 (1st appearance of Black Adam) its a raw copy and probably an 8.5 to 9.0 and maybe higher if pressed and cleaned but too afraid to send a book like this to a cleaner\presser...
Wha a great book to inherit from from your grandfather! There are cleaners/pressers out there (would have to search on Instagram) who could do a great job with your book. There are also pressers you could find through Facebook.
Awesome hulk 181
Thanks! Looking forward to getting it cleaned and pressed at some point over the next couple years and then resubmit it.
Love it Dr. T!!! I would not add the McFarlen sig to the Hulk 377... with the singular Stan Lee sig it is esthetically perfect.
I agree about the Stan sig. We had created a window bag so he would sign in that exact spot. The only other place that I have seen a lot of second sigs on this book is on Wolverine's forehead. It would definitely affect the aesthetic of the cover.
Nice books sir.
Nice bunch of comics, I would rather have a 2 or 2.5than not have the comic. One of these days I should probably get some of mine slabbed. Thanks for the video !
Raw comics are awesome too!
I feel the same holding my 181 6.0 that could be a 7 with a press i offerd my lcs a whole short box of 50 dollars keys and they did it for me i never ever ever thought i would own one
Amazing!
Just started collecting CGC
Im 45 from Australia. Went to my first ever San Diego Comicon and wanted to make it special. So I got my first ever CGC 9.8 of Spawn issue 1.
It's one of my all-time fav superheroes spawn
I love Silver Surfer, which got Silver Surfer annual number 4, signed by Jim Starlin 9.8, and Maximum Carnage 8.0
I got back from USA I've already bought another 3 slabs.
Lethal Protector #1 9.8
Batman Who laughs #1 signed by David Baron. One of my fav series
And Xmen #5 issue 295 Jim Lee cover with Omega Red.
Safe to say I'm addicted...
@@chiefmegadeth Great list of books! Collecting graded comics can be a lot of fun. What books are you going to be looking for next?

God what have I gotten myself into haha.
Doctor T is the coolest!
Wow, what a nice comment. 😆😉
Dr. T,
Vintage comic prices continue to drop. When do you think prices will stabilize?
I have no idea 😬. Wish I had some thing smarter to say. Thanks for watching.
Nice
Thank you!
The holy grail in my collection is a 9.9 of TMNT: The Last Ronin #5 Bishop Virgin Metal Edition. In your expert opinion what do you think this is worth. I can't find anything on the internet for this book.
Hey, sorry for just getting back to you! There is a 9.8 that sold on eBay in Sept. 2023 for $500. On the CGC Census there is one 9.9 copy (yours), and one 9.9 Signature Series copy. So it is hard to know what yours would sell for. There are eight 9.8 in a Universal grade on the Census and 18 Sig. Series 9.8 copies. This would give you an idea. The only way to truly know is to put it up for auction or list it for an amount and see if someone offers you anything for it.
I have 2 ultimate fallout 4 djurdjevic variant.
Are you going to do a 2025 update of this video?. Perhaps you could do a price guide as well.
@@Pinkierabbit4 Comic book prices have definitely changed in the last couple years! I don’t know if I will do a top 50 book video, but I am gearing up for a collectible room tour!
Great show just a little to quick buddy, maybe a little slower, but great show
Thanks for the feedback, Hudson. What was too quick? Was it how fast I went through each book or how fast I was speaking, or both? Thanks again.
@@doctortcomics2576 just a little quick buddy going through them but I so enjoyed your channel
I'm beginning to wonder whether getting a perfect 10 is even possible lol 😂 even most modern books only come back 9.8
Green Lantern
Dragon Lord #1-3
Nobody Knows about it.
Everybody sleeps on it.
But those who know
Know.
Actually the Thor cover swipe is not Thor 126(1st title) but journey into mystery annual 1 ,also featuring Hercules. Just sayin
I should have more accurately said Thor 338 is a cover homage to Thor 126, since that is how CGC labels it on Thor 338. But it is definitely Thor 126 that Thor 338 is paying homage to.
#freethegradedcomics
You kind of look like the author Chuck palahniuk
None of them would be my top 50 because they're ruined wrapped in that plastic
I didn't know they sold comics in Palestine
Meh... nothing to get excited about bout.
Stop supporting the groomers at Disney.
slabs...
So another bragging video...
Alternative title: What being single and childless can get you... stuff!
Just a hobby sharing video really. This CGC portion of my collection has been amassed over 13 years while being married 14 years and having four kids during that time. All on a teacher’s salary in a mostly single income household.
Don’t b a hater
That's cold. No need of that. He's just sharing his joy. Most everyone who posted comments enjoyed it. I did and I'll never own any of those. Nor do I care to. But I'm happy for him. I'm sure you have things you love, be they pocket knives, watches or cars.
This is the last straw. I'm done with comics. This guy is a serial killer just waiting for his comics to drop in value
