Today, received my bi-weekly shipment of comic books. I took the opportunity this evening to input them in my database at Comics Price Guide. I now have a total of OVER 1500 comic books in my collection. For some this is not very much, for other it is huge–for me it is an important milestone. Not that I have been trying to reach this number–because I didn’t even consider it until recently.Â
It is important because I have built this collection over a 2 1/2 year time frame–while I have been deployed to Iraq for a year of it, while I have moved to Germany during this time, and while I have only been collecting only a small amount of time. Too me, I’m proud that I have been able to accomplish this milestone, which moves me closer to becoming a true collector–and not simply a novice.
