Had we kept and preserved those “worthless” comics mothers loved to throw out we’d be far wealthier for sure. I watched the “Doctor Strange” movie and said very good try but that’s not Steve Ditko. When I tried acid years after reading those comics said the same. Ditko was a fine artist in a genre where he’ll never get the appreciation he deserves. I appreciate him.
I had hundreds of comic books. My mother threw them out as well.
I checked the value of issue Number ONE of The Silver Surfer, from the Fantastic Four and it is worth over $10k today.
And that’s just one that I know I had.
Spiderman debut issue, and some early Thor, Fantastic Four, Superman, Batman, Avengers, Lois Lane, Jimmy Olsen .................................
