I've seen lots of modern age collectors getting treated really bad on Facebook. Am I the only one who actually thinks modern comics are cool? And do collectors really think are collections are trash? As someone who is New to collecting it's frustrating to find out that a collection you have started growing is completely worthless. Personally I love my J Scott Campbell Slabs and signature series. I pay a lot and I am proud of them. To anyone else who collects modern age comic's hit me up I don't think your books are trash. let's buy sell and trade among our selves if need be.

We see all kinds of collectors and collections here at CPG, from Golden Age to Variant to Artist driven collectors. Regardless of your preferences, we should all be kind to fellow collectors. You never know when your tastes might change. In the early 2000's people would say, "I don't buy any 90's crap." Now those same people are scurrying around looking for 90's era comics because they are highly sought after now.

Collect what you like and enjoy!

You have to read what you like!

Plus, there's always going to be some disdain from one generation to the next... some of us have seen a few too many re-boots to not have become a little jaded, you know?!

There's always something going on that is new and good, imo.

I won't claim to be enthusiastic about a lot of what is new these days, but I am willing to try some, and I fully admit that a lot of what I read in the 80's and 90's was "crap" by even my own definition, now, lol.

Hope you are able to read this as the supportive statement I intend it to be, and not as a slight towards the books you are enjoying.
