When I was not so long in the tooth in the early 70's, it was ANY Fawcett, westerns like John Wayne, Hopalong Cassidy, Gabby Hayes and other western photo cover comics, most four colors, Red Ryder, Flash Gordon (not the Frazetta covers much later on), Classic Illustrated, Motion picture Funnies, Famous Funnies #1, Lone Ranger, Green Hornet, Mutt and Jeff, Man from Uncle, Carnival of comics and, of course, Whiz 2 (#1) at that time was the top holy grail, not Action 1, Tec 27 or Cap 1.

Try selling most of those comics at the percentages that they were at in the 60's and 70's. You can't.

Ask almost any 30-year-old if they know or give a damn about the heroes/characters, they won't. Heck, who collects the Yellow Kid, Palmer Cox Brownies or any Victorion age these days? Only a small number of older hobbyists.

For readers/collectors today it's X-men, Spidey, Batman, Spawn, The Boys, Avengers, Iron Man, the Crow, Simpsons, Walking Dead, Sonic, Sandman (A classic! IMHO), Wonder Woman and Invincible just to name a few as there are many. The movies and TV shows have helped generate a bunch of this as well. Western movies did the same during the 50's and 60's.

Another aspect are people that are 9.8 "graded" chasers of commons and the ones that buy 10+ multiple variant covers of the same exact same book instead of reading and spending their hard-earned money on other great comics to read or check out. UGH! The 90's all over again!!!!!🥵 It does not last through the generations, most of the time.

Comics are meant to be read and enjoyed. Again, IMHO.

Simpsons, Super Mario and Sonic will still be "in vogue" for the next generation, Transformers, Futurama and maybe, Spawn as well. Heck, Mario replaced Mickey Mouse as the best known character in the world a few years ago! No one saw that coming....

My 6-year-old grandson LOVES Sonic! Just got him a sketch by the great and super hobbyist Bill Morrison and he was in heaven! He has the socks, underwear, PJ's, lunch box and backpack.

Most covet what we have nostalgia for. NO ONE HAS A CRYSTAL BALL! We would all be rich if we did.

Buy what you love to read and don't "speculate". You will, "at the end of the day" enjoy our great hobby even more.

End of rant! Sorry!

Low print runs
