I read my share of DC. Batman, Superman, Detective Comics, Action Comics, All-Star Batman, Super Sons, Teen Titans, Redhood and the Outlaws and sometimes Nightwing if it looks like a good arc. Valiant Comics has relaunched X-O Manowar which I think is great. Dark Horse I read Conan, Black Hammer and the occasional Mike Mignola-verse comic that catches my eye. I like Star Trek Boldly Go from IDW. Rick Remender has several Image books I follow Black Science being the best. Hickman's East Of West for Image too. Sounds like I should try Jessica Jones.

Jessica's first run is called Alias. Have you read that already? If not, do.

What's the best way to sell my comics? I have issues from the 50s up to 2012. Very few are worth more than $10.

Old stuff includes Silver Surfer, FF and those long discontinued war comics.
I think I had every TMNT and all the spinoffs, but they were read, reread and all but destroyed.
I have some #1s from the 90s - Uncanny Xmen, Spiderman 2199. I might have the death of Superman arc.
Recently, I have the first few Thief of Thieves.
I have so many random issues. When I was a kid, I would buy lots of comics, meaning a lot like a lot of 50 for $10 right from the publisher. Likely unsold returns from the bookstore.

I haven't read it. I have it on my hard drive though. I pretty much have everything on my hard drive.
I just put it on my iPad and will start on it this week!

I sent my list to about 5 online stores. I received 2 rejection letters thus far.

eBay might be your best bet. Sell as a lot.

Read the first Vol of Alias. You guys were right. I do like it a lot. Bendis is really excellent at street level characters. The art is interesting. It's both perfect for the vibe of the book and also in some ways horrible. Michael Gaydos can't draw a face to save his life. It seems more real though. I'm going to stick with it.

I didn't know I would be rejected. I've got $0.12ers! I have about 40 that were less than $1. I thought they would have thrown an offer my way.
What ever happened to the RMer who had the comic shop / used video game store?

I finished Alias. It certainly lived up to its reputation. On to The Pulse next.
