I can't believe that the show lasted as long as it did. I watched probably less than a minute of it and regretted it.

I quite liked it to see what was coming through the door. All set up I know, but the series with the guys batcave in his basement was good to look around. And going to the museum to see the Action Comics number 1 is something I will probably never get to see off screen. I suppose it's like coming on here and looking at everyone's stuff. I like that side of it too. Was bad when they were just being silly with children's parties and cosplay scenarios but I can ignore them bits until they get back to the items. The show put me onto a few new books in my collection.

Sure, always interesting what was brought in to sell or to buy. That’s 5 minutes or less in the show, the rest stunk. Four bums with a rich friend.

Most programmes only have about 5 minutes of anything going on. The rest just being time filling bullshit. Got to go through all the crap to get to the good bits. Just looked up that Geppi museum with the Action Comics. He has closed and given his things to the Library of Congress. Nice of him.

That’s a big gift, nice he did this.

True, many shows, well reality tv shows like you said only have a few minutes of interest. Good shows have actual stories being told. Me not likey most reality shows.

I agree it is mostly the reality shows that don't have much content. Used to watch quite a lot of tele but hardly anything now. We tend to watch some old shows like X Files, Frasier, Cheers and The Walking Dead is the only new show we watch and that should have ended after 3 seasons. Just rehashing the same story each season. It was because of walking dead I came across comic book men. Oh forgot about The Big Bang Theory we enjoy that too. I probably liked Comic Men mainly because I got to see people on the same wavelength with their collecting. I don't know anybody in real life that collect anything. Even on here it's all just words and pictures. Only ever been to two comic book shops. Over here it was just organised chaos of a jumble of comics. In Florida it felt like a proper decent comic book shop. Though getting there would prove costly. It is actually on my bucket list to go to The Stash. 😁🤞. And Red Bank looks like a really nice place to go. That street looked proper nice. I was definitely born on the wrong side of the pond.

You ever notice watching the Big Bang Theory that all all the cool stuff they own like statues, comics hanged on walls in the apartment, some tee shirts and really noticeable when they are at Stuwarts comic shop, everything being sold, on a wall, shelf, posters, statues and it is all DC stuff. Zero Marvel props ever.

Never noticed that. Will look out for it next time I watch.

Just Googled this

The show itself is owned by Warner Brothers, who also own DC Comics, which is why you mostly see DC Comics products on the show and almost never Marvel Comics (although occasionally you’ll see them use Marvel merchandise like Hulk hands).

Most of the time they didn't even talk about Comic Books just Kevin Smith's crap or some thing like the My Little Pony Brony episode crap....This had such high hopes..

That episode was awful. Especially when they went dressed up and entered that comp. Was just cringe. I admit it could have been a lot better. Did you watch that Robert Kirkmans History Of Comics? That was much better as it focused solely on comics and the creators. That Wonder Woman one was really interesting how she came about. 😁🤣 . The Stan Lee one was just lovely. He really is a great man and visionary. Shame about him and Ditko.
