Of course they're all just saying that so they can get my precious comics for pennies.But I'll never sell, never! Reprints, piracy, growing legit digital comics, ageing fans, dying fans, decreasing new sales, economic downturns and buying for the lowest possible price using any of the other reasons. I just get comics to read them. If I had wanted to invest in getting rarer and rarer books, to make it a proper investment, I would have done it a long time ago. But I'm always drawn to something I want to read more than the value of it. It was an investment. An investment that paid off in countless hours of reading enjoyment and all of the advantages that broad reading brings when you're young. Flash Facts too. "...not having to believe in a thing to be interested in it and not having to explain a thing to appreciate the wonder of it."

That would be a bit of a surprise entry for folks looking at Action Comics in overstreet "...not having to believe in a thing to be interested in it and not having to explain a thing to appreciate the wonder of it."
