Does anyone collect comic books?

I collected Amazing Spiderman as a child in the #250-400 range. The earlier issues were out of reach to me back then. For the last two years I have been slowly putting together a 1-50 ASM run and its been a lot of fun. Great reads too. The language has changed quite a bit since that era

ASM was always my favorite title. I have a 100-252 run (that's when my subscription ran out!). What a great (and challenging) run 1-50 would be. Good luck!

I sold my Golden and Silver Age collection years back, and I've always regretted it.

What's depressing is the fact that despite superhero movies being hugely popular now, literally none of these new modern fans collect old books.
There's no reverence for the history of where all these movies spawned from...

I collect Pre-Code horror. Here is my recent pick-up:

I have gotten back into collecting comics last year after I found one sitting in the trash at one of my Flea markets. Comics were my first collectible way back when as I had my first paper route and in the middle of the route had this old shack that sold back issues of comics that I can still remember.. I'm now heavy into reliving my childhood collection.. Also, I also can find vintage comics easier at the Fleas than vintage cards. I'm all about the hunt..
