So I just found a stash of common but goodies at my parent's home (i used to collect basketball cards and some comic books). Image and valiant first issues, Venom, Carnage, Spidey related shit. So I'm wondering, in 30 years will these be worth a little more than now? Or is the print run so large that these will always be common and always be readily available? b,121b,121I gots shit like this:b,121 b,121 b,121

    Image era trash

    worthless even in 100 years

  • Pitt was just terrible and image tried their best to ram it down our throats.b,121Bullshit-ass Punk Rock Hulk - GTFOHWTB.b,121b,121X.O. had its visual merits but that cover was part of the Gimmick-Covers Era and they printed a whole mess of those shits. Stores/shops couldnt get rid of 'em.b,121b,121That Mark Bagley Spider-Man wont be worth much but it is an early Carnage issue. Carnage,despite the cool name, was just Marvel's way of pimpin the Venom popularity. "Lets make a Red Venom" "That's even more ferocious that Eddie Brock!" Just terrible.

    b,121b,121I just can't get into that stuff in the least. b,121b,121h,121b,121b,121There were some groundbreakin stories amongst the quagmire, but they flooded themselves. b,121And Marvel/DC tried to play catch-up. Bad news.

  • Valiant's Shadowman was pretty dope. They had a few other good titles, but their huge print runs means they'll probably never be worth more than a few dolars.

    Anyone remember the Valiant/Image cross-over. Everyone was expecting the writing Valiant was known for with the drawings Image was known for. Instead of giving us the cream of the crop we got a terrible story with shitty artists. Everyone felt ripped off.b,121b,121The best from the Image era was the Jim Lee/Chris Claremont teamup in WildCATS. Sadly, they parted ways after that story arc.

    b,121b,121 by the record game. Yea, looks like back in the day when I was at the collector store, and buying packs of basketball cards, I got enticed to buying colorful shit like this for the heck of it! I'll still F*ck with Doomsday though...
