Whats your longest Marvel comic run?

[Iceman]

I have around 4500 - 5000 comics in my collection, but they take up too much room, and the wife keeps nagging me that I need to make space in the office(in case we need to turn it into a nursery ). So I'm buying more and more TPBs these days than back issues, just for the space thing, plus they are much easier to store, btw I have just under 100 TPBs as well

I think I might have to move to TPBs for books that I'm prepared to wait for.

 

[sto_vo_kor_2000]

Uncanny X-men from #1 to #350

 

[Speedball]

Probably Marvel Team-Up.

 

[Jbcraig]

Vol 2. Daredevil complete

2nd would probably be full run of Invincible.

 

[foxx5]

Wolverine Vol.1 1-4
Wolverine Vol.2 -1-189
Wolverine Vol.3 1-44
Wolverine Origins 1-5

if it does not count when it is seperate volumes, then I would say my Uncanny X-Men 94-477

 

[Iceman]

Uncanny X-men from #1 to #350

WOW! Very impressed.

Why did you stop at 350? (although it is a nice round number)

That must have cost a few $ unless you're old enough to have bought them when they came out.

 

[Narynan]

ASM #27 - current is my longest

 

[hippy fascist]

ASM #27 - current is my longest

Not fair...

 

[Elijya]

Narynan - ASM #27 from the 60s, or from 2000?

 

[Narynan]

vol #1 so, yeah from the 60's. I started collection when I was like 8 years old, first issue I got in the mail was ASM 339. And have went forward and backwards from there. Only missing 16 more issues, and AF 15 for the full run

 

[MJOILNIR]

Thor from Journey into mystery #109 on up.

 

[sto_vo_kor_2000]

111.

 

[sto_vo_kor_2000]

I did not like a lot of the stuff that was coming out of marvel after the onslaut story and had already stoped buying Spider-man after they made ben reily spider-man and I loved him as scarlet spider and did not care that they made the original but to make him spiderman.Then there was the whole Mutant X crap what they were doing with Punisher I did not like. Marvel was letting me down left and right and then some of the X-Men storys started to waver so I gave up on Marvel books all together.I am only just now getting back in to Marvel books.

 

[Narynan]

yeah I made the break for 4 years at about the same time. I just couldnt deal with it, everything, and I mean EVERYTHING marvel touched at that time turned into liquid poo. But things seem to be going better now, I must admit. That if the books I love have more poo thrown on them, i swear to god, I bail again. I vote with my wallet.

 

[X-Punisher]

Ultimate X-Men #1- current.

 

[Gamma Burst]

Mine is AMZ#244 -current

I liked some of the early 300s but I know a few guys stopped collecting towards the 400s. I'm too much of a completist for my own good.

Are you going to keep your collection? I'm going to complete mine some day.

Thats the sensible way to go. Unfortunately I'm afflicted with a must have every issue disease that means I shell out for ****. I know it's wrong.

I have been selling most of my doubles from back in the 90's I would buy anywere between 2 to 10 copys of some comic books mostly x-books.But I will be keeping at least 1 of each issue.At last count I had over 5275 comic books.

i totally understand, there are times where i feel as though I still do the same thing. i love what they are doing but i still somehow get stuck with my shop stuffing garbage books in my box. oh well

Back in 1983, I had a poor conditioned copy of Uncanny X-Men #1... which at the time, was NOT worth a bunch.... 5 bucks tops.

So I gave it to some X-Men guy for a drive home... t: t: t:

The book was not called "UNCANNY X-MEN" untill issue #142 in the year 1981.Even a poor grade X-MEN #1 from 1963 is worth about $100.Are you sure about the with book you had.

Are you really asking ME that question???

Of course it was X-Men #1 from the 60's... and in 1983, that book was NOT worth $100 in poor condition. Perhaps nowadays, but NOT 23 years ago.

And yes, I'm sure...

The queation was not ment to be rude.Sorry if it sounded that way.But maybee where you are from it was not worth much but I was born in New York City and back in the 1983 I would shop at a comic book store named
Forbidden Planet in Manhatten and they had a copy of X-Men #1 that was in very poor condition the cover was only held on by one staple and tape had yellowing and some water damage and the asking price was $145.00
but they would allways offer to sell it for $120.00or $115.00.But every thing was allways more expensive in Manhatten.
