Hey everyone,

Im excited to be here and start my comicbook collecting journey. I have been collecting as a kid and unfortunately stopped in 2005 due to school and other stuff. I'm glad to say that im back permanently as I am older and alot wiser than I was before. I hope to get to know you guys and I will have a bunch of questions (but will do research before I ask) hopefully I can get together with people in my area to put me on game.

Thank you in advance.

Excelsior!!!

Glad to have you here. If you have any question please ask.

For a long time, I've thought about the cycle comic collectors go through.

All in collecting
Collecting as a habit
Life event interrupts comic collecting
Comes back to comics

Someone once said the cycle was the guy will collect comics until he discovers girls and then after he's married he'll come back to comics.

The more people collecting, the better. Welcome.

IMO comic collecting is both a great hobby but also an obsession. I've been collecting non-stop for nearly thirty years (Marvel, DC, Image, Valiant, whatever). I stopped collecting for about a month back in 2011 but it didn't stick. Before I knew it, I was missing my normal pull list (especially Spider-man, Batman, and Superman books). I was actually planning to stop just prior to Flashpoint. Next thing I know New 52 and later Marvel Now got going and re-ignited my passion for this medium all over again.
