BOOK BLURB:
With box office hits like "Spider-Man", "Superman", "X-Men", "Hulk", the "Fantastic Four" and many others ushering in new comic book fans, and renewing interest among former collectors, comprehensive price guides are a must have. This edition gives a brief overview of the industry, a grading guide, and features an interview with a comic book industry insider. Unlike other price guides, "Comics Values Annual 2009" lists titles alphabetically by MAJOR publisher beginning with "DC" and then continuing with "Marvel", "Image", "Dark Horse", "Classics Illustrated", and then tossing in miscellaneous "Golden Age" titles, black and white titles, colour titles from modern publishers like Valiant, Gold Key, Gladstone, Malibu, etc. "Marvel" and "DC" dominate the collectable comic book world. "Comics Values Annual 2009" recognises that fact. Why should collectors have to rummage through a lot of junk that other publishers list to get to the good stuff they collect?
REVIEW:
A book that does what it says on the tin, it gives the reader an easy to check reference guide so that they know that they’re not either over paying for that wanted comic or to make sure that they have adequate insurance should the worst happen, its comprehensive organised alphabetically by publisher and is an easy guide to utilise. A great thing to have to be honest and one that I’ve already had borrowed by a few friends who wanted to make sure that they’re fully covered with one saving a fortune on a much wanted release.
