    Oldest Comic Books you gots??

    The oldest vid game thread inspired me to put this one up.......

    My older brother first got me into I.M. via Tales of Suspense, then gave those puppies to me for safe keeping, so they are among the oldest I have along with a few others:

      One of the issues from the Superman Reboot in '86. I can't remember which issue and i'm too lazy to dive into my comic bin.

      A family friend had a ton of 1960s and '50s Archie and Lil' Archie comics. I loved going to their place as I'd read them. They were in ok condition but not to the extent that it'd be worth a lot in the collectors market.

        I had a ton when i was in elementary. they are in a box somewhere at my folks place.

        These two arent the oldest one I have. But they are both signed by the drawer dude which I thought were cool.

          1 comic with Spider-man from the 60s.

          A couple from the 70s.

          Several from the 80s.

          Many from the 90s.

                  I got a lot of stuff from the 80's, not sure if anything from before then that aren't reprints. I think the oldest might be an X-Men issue during the time Magneto was leading them in Professor X's absence.


                  Edit: Just did a quick dig around and found an Invincible Iron Man, #153 from December of 81. That might be the oldest.

                          I stopped buying sometime in the 90's but I have this one. Terrible condition though
