I can’t believe I still have my collection. I don’t have too many, but the cover on this one is one of my favs.

Nice! Do you have memories of when and where you bought them?
I still have all my old comics as well. Started in 6th grade and stopped buying around 9th grade. My favorite store moved sometime in 2004 and I didn’t find the owner again until 2011 at another location. Sadly, he closed for good 2 years later and retired.

Yup, it was 5th grade. We had just moved into a new neighborhood. There was a new comic book store right across the street from my new school. It only lasted a couple of years. People mostly went there because they had Mortal Kombat. That poor lady, we all kept wiping out her quarters from her cash register.

I feel like Blood Hunt was an event just to setup
Doom as Sorcerer Supreme lol
All the red-band issues and the idea was cool, but after I finished it it was ehhh.
I'm finally catching up on G.O.D.S by Hickman and that is a good read.
Gotta sell some issues/runs though. Need to free up space lol

Mortal Kombat and Street Fighter machines were goldmines for stores back in the day. My local donut shop SUCKS but we went for the arcades in the back

If you haven't read Waid and Mora's World's Finest, I recommend you do so. Writing and art is great. Oh, and you get panels like this

I am just getting into reading Comic Books right now and I finished Doctor Doom: The Book Of Doom Omnibus. Man it was an excellent read. I finished it in one go.

Started Ram V's run on Detective Comics and it's a slow start, but Albequerque's artwork is so good.

Just finished Vol. 4 of World's Finest where they go to Earth-22 (Kingdom Come earth) and that was a really good read. Sucks Waid and Mora are no longer on this title. But I am curious how their Justice League comic will go.
Wolverine #1 was a good start. Surprised they brought back one of his older villains.

Just got in this Blue Flame issue as an extension of my Doctor Doom collection, since it's a tribute to Secret Wars #20, which is one of my favorite covers of all time. Added to the Ninja Funk, it's a pretty cool little trio. Anyone know of any others, or does anyone else have similar offshoots to their collections?

Marvel Comics Still Doesn't Want Peter Parker Married Again
Years after the infamous One More Day, Marvel editor Tom Brevoort still insists that the mainline Peter Parker will never put a spider-ring on it.
gizmodo.com
This is why many people are enjoying the current Ultimate Spider-Man run. The main ASM title just hasn't been good for some time. (I personally disliked Wells/Romita's run and glad that it's ending)

Aye dios mio! They're gonna be killing my finances with Doom-related stuff over the next couple of years with these movies coming. Two new comics announced for next year, piles of Doom variants of every Marvel book, and now the toys and statues? Anyone wanna buy a bunch of size 12 sneakers to help me fund my Doom collection? Kidding but not really kidding.

They’ve been releasing numerous Doom variant covers for numerous titles for the past month as he’s currently Sorcerer Supreme and leading into the next big event.
There’s going to be an overarching theme titled One World Under Doom that’s being compared similarly to 2008’s Dark Reign. That theme is going to be anchored by a core title of The Rise of Emperor Doom in February.
Here’s some more info:

Yes, very excited about this, and written by Ryan North too! He's been knocking his Fantastic Four run out of the park.

Some of the variant covers have been nice too. Got one for daredevil and a few for X-men that are better than the original covers.

I've been consuming too much comic-related YT content lately, and I've been thinking about something. Wondering if anyone else of the same opinion:
I could not give a **** less about "keys". I feel like there is annoying terminology with any hobby or niche of society, but "keys" and talk of "kelys" has always been something that makes me roll my eyes. I've just always discounted it as reseller talk, but it has started to kinda bother me recently. I'm much more of a cover art and completing runs type of collector but I don't do graded stuff or resell either.
