pBack in the good old days, if a kid had a quarter in his pocket he
would jump on his skateboard or Schwinn Stingray bicycle and head
as fast as he could to the fiveanddime and pick up the newest copy
of Spiderman or my favorite, Journey into Mystery featuring the
Mighty Thor. These great Marvel Silver Age comics are now worth
thousands of dollars and it all started with some kid and his
quarter. Now if you want to buy comic books you need to either find
an actual comic book store, which are becoming more and more rare
every passing month, or you can buy comic books online. br br When
you buy comic books online you definitely will save some time but
you lose the ability to actually hold the comic book in your hands
like when you go to the actual store. Personally I like to be able
to saunter into a comic book store and walk around, check out the
expensive mags on the wall displays, and delve deeply into their
back issue files.br br About fifteen years ago I started going to
comic book stores with my son and we would buy his favorite titles,
usually Superman, and while he was looking at the newer titles I
would search in the back issue files and find rare gems. After a
couple of years of doing this I ended up with quite the collection
of Silver Age Marvel comics. I bought a lot of Thor comics, but
others also, including lots of Xmen and Fantastic Four. Some of
these comics were not in very good condition, but I bought them
anyway with the reasoning that they were not making these anymore
and someday they would be worth something just for being rare. I
now have a pretty nice collection that is worth quite a bit of
moolah.br br If you want to buy comic books online there are
several good websites you can go on. Ebay has an extensive ongoing
rotation of great comics for sale, including many that have
received the CGC comic guarantee company certification and are
enclosed in hard plastic. You can search through their extensive
database and find rare comics and graphic novels as well as newer
titles. You can bid on any comics you find there and sometimes you
can pick up some pretty good bargains or rare gems. Most of the
time though you end up paying more than you intended or someone
else beats you in the final auction bidding.br br One of the best
places to buy comic books online is at www.midtowncomics.com. Here
you will find all of the best titles available from Silver Age to
todays mangas. Another great site is www.atomicavenue.com and you
can search their extensive database. You can also sell comics as
well as buy comic books online there.br br With the massive
worldwide popularity of comic book and movie superheroes such as
Spiderman, Iron Man, the Hulk, the Fantastic Four, and of course,
the Xmen,a relnofollow targetself comic booka prices will continue
