Comic Book Collection: Part 1
In the beginning, I did not collect comic books, but after going to a friend’s house during my second year in high school, he showed me his comic book action figure collection. I thought his collection was cool so I came up with an idea to collect an action figure, a comic book with the character featured in it and then a trading card or something of the like. The idea was to have a mini set for each. However, after purchasing my Batman action figure and then reading the comic that I bought to go with it I was hooked and began collecting ever since.
I spend a lot of money during my teenage years. This was when a bunch of new comic books and comic book companies came out and I loved collecting number one issues and special editions. I also always got a plastic bag and a cardboard insert for them.
Here are some of my favorite comics and I will post more in the future.
The Death of Superman – Black Bag Edition – Unopened
The Return of Superman – White Bag Edition – Unopened
X-Force – Issue Number 1
Cable – Issue Number 1
Deadpool – Issue Number 1
Spawn – Issue Number 1
I’ll post more later and if you wish to show off some of your collection send me the pictures to jalaraque@theinvertedparadox.com

Isn’t Spawn 1 almost worthless?
Actually it is currently worth about $10. So no compared to many even older comics that have only gone up to about $3 it is doing well. But the worth is what someone is willing to buy it for. So if someone such as me is willing to pay $1000 for it then they usually raise the value in the collectors book.
When I collected I said in my mind these could be worth money one day, but in my heart I just liked reading comics and I liked #1 issues for some strange reason.
