I recently accuired five 3' boxes of comics from the early 90s, still sealed in a clear plastic sleeve. I was told this was from a collector and that none of them were ever opened and from the looks of it, it would appear he's telling the truth. There are about 1300 comics all together and I paid him $100 for all. According to this site and 4 days of creating a checklist it comes to arond $11000 that's if I selected the proper grading. My question is do these really go up much in value over the years or would it be best to try and sell now.

Lets see a list and some pics of what you got.

“I don’t do this for the Commander in Chief.  I do this for my country, and I will continue to do so.”

"They are blind to history's clear lesson, for history teaches with unmistakable emphasis that appeasement but begets new and bloodier war. It points to no single instance where this end has justified that means, where appeasement has led to more than a sham peace. Like blackmail, it lays the basis for new and successively greater demands until, as in blackmail, violence becomes the only other alternative."

"Why," my soldiers asked of me, "surrender military advantages to an enemy in the field?" I could not answer.

This should be fun

I don't measure my manhood on a number, unless that number involves current salary, sexual conquests or inches...I am not concerned with my grammar on a message board. I will save my writing skills for something that is important enough to warrant them
