🛡️ LET’S BUILD A TRUSTED SELLER LIST! 🛡️

Every few months, I ask the comic book community to help me put together a list of trusted sellers here on Instagram.

Why? Because protecting collectors AND supporting honest, reputable sellers is good for everyone in this community. 🤝

👇 Tag a comic seller in the comments that you’ve personally purchased from and trust. Tell us who they are and, if you want, share a quick reason why you recommend them.

I’ll be pinning this video to my page so it can serve as a reference for collectors looking for reputable sellers.

Let’s help each other buy, sell, and collect with confidence. And remember: do your own due diligence before sending anyone money.

Thank you to everyone who contributes! ❤️

🔥 STEAL OF THE DAY: GRADING CANDIDATES 🔥

Sunday morning hunt turned up a good one 👀

1987 Spider-Man vs. Wolverine #1 — $17 RAW

Nearly 40 years old. Spider-Man. Wolverine. And from the photos, this copy looks CLEAN. Sharp corners, nice edges, and that dark spine isn’t showing us much to complain about. 👀

Here’s why we’re stopping:

💰 Raw asking price: $17
📈 CGC 9.8s have recently sold around $160–$225

Obviously, one photo isn’t enough to call anything a 9.8—we’d want to see that back cover and get it under some real light first.

But for SEVENTEEN DOLLARS?!

This is exactly what we look for. An affordable raw book with legitimate grading upside that everybody else might scroll right past.

Would you take the $17 gamble and send it in? 👀

Same Kid. Bigger Binder. 💯

An incredible Timely World War 2 cover re-creation by Alex Schomburg showing Captain America and Bucky jumping into the heat of battle at Brenner Pass in Northern Italy. This cover is especially important in my life as my father used to tell me stories of his father's accomplishments in World War 2. My grandfather (slide 5) was a B-26 bomber pilot flying many different planes including Hells Belle II (slide 4). He saved each cotter pin (slides 2, 3) from the bombs he dropped in Europe while fighting the axis powers, capturing the history of the dates, locations, flak, and success of the missions. His 64th mission took place on November 6, 1944 when he dropped a 1,000 pound demolition bomb onto the Calliano Railway Bridge near Brenner Pass in Northern Italy. He flew 69 of these dangerous missions while with the 319th Bombardment Group before leaving the service.

Artist: Alex Schomburg
Title: Captain America Comics 33
Type: Painted Cover "Re-Creation"
Year: 1980

Superman #27
DC Comics, 3-4/44
CGC 9.0 (White pages)
Wayne Boring cover and interior art
Only 6 Copies Graded Higher on CGC census

Another Golden Age gem joins the ToddFather collection, this one Superman #27 in a CGC 9.0, graded with White Pages and a beautifully presenting yellow cover- some of the best of the Golden Age of Superman! Just flipped through the pictures in this post to see some of the greatest yellow Superman covers in the collection! Make sure you’re seated, because this will be a SUPER treat! This issue features the second appearance of the Toyman (Winslow Schott), who debuted just months earlier in Action Comics #64 in September 1943.

In a very 1944 type super-villain plot, Toyman’s scheme in this one has him designing coin machines that will make him rich and devices that will give him revenge on Superman- rigged arcade-style gadgets, as opposed to world domination. Of course in this story, Lois Lane is once again kidnapped. It was a common plot tool overused in early Superman stories. In fact, this issue of Superman #27 is Lois Lane is kidnapped for the 28th time! Don’t forget, Superman’s concurrently running series, Action Comics, added to the tally.

This book hit newsstands for a dime on March 10, 1944, right in the middle of WWII, when Superman comics were a fixture on the home front and even had special Overseas Service Editions printed for troops abroad. Such copies were distributed by the United States Army’s Special Service Division for troops abroad — a reminder of just how central Superman was to WWII-era morale.✨

Photographer: Theo Westenberger
Title: Sports Illustrated "Dream Team"
Type: Cover
Year: February 1991

An incredible alternative to original comic art. Presented here is the Type 1 photograph by Theo Westenberger used for the iconic Dream Team Sports Illustrated cover. This is also a unique piece as most Type 1 photos are much smaller in size around 8"x11" but this is a massive 16"x20" photo. This is the best type of production piece for magazines and cards.

P.S. The graded magazine is for reference only. It is not ours.

Reunited again!!!! Here’s the full story!!! Huge thank you to Mike @mike_s4za_collects for this book back in my PC again. I raffled this book last year in April 2025 when I needed funds for my leaky roof that cost thousands and thousands of dollars which was having leaks and termite issues and cracks in the house. And so I raffled a bunch of Stan Lee comic signed comic books to help fund it and now 16 months later, I’m reunited with this book. The reason why I love this book so much is because I spent five hours in line waiting to get Stan Lee’s signature And I remember I was in line and I was the next one to get him to this book signed by him only to be told by his handler that he’s going to take a break. Well, that break ended up being three hours as Stan Lee took a nap. I can’t blame the guy. He was 95 years old at the time However I still waited and waited and waited and my wife was waiting with me and she got sick of it and she said I’m gonna go home, but this was one of the rare books that I wanted to get back not because of the first appearance of carnage, but because I put blood sweat and tears waiting five hours to get this signed by the man himself Stan Lee. And it’s just a sentimental memorable book for me that will stay back in my PC for about 20 years or so because I really love the cover and I love that I chose the silver ink for Stan Lee and Mark Bagley to sign thank you so much for working with me Mike!!! reunited again and it feels so good!!!!!

The TCG and sports card markets continue to hit record-breaking prices, while the secondary comic book market has largely trended downward, aside from a handful of notable exceptions. What do you think is driving this difference? Why are trading cards gaining value and attracting more demand, while comics seem to be losing momentum in the aftermarket? I’d love to hear your perspective.

Huge S/O to @semperficomics , one of the best in the game for hooking me up with this one. No major news with this character, just stabilizing/decreasing prices for one of the biggest marvel keys in existence. It comes with a rich history that happens to have a very lean census count as well. ⚡️🔨
