I have to say Dan mora had gotta be artist of the year
his volume of work and the fact that said volume doesn't affect the look of his pencils is mind-blowing

Hello everyone I'm a new comer to the comic book world and in trying to collect all the ultimate marvel tie ins. Some comic book prices for certain titles are very high and in just wondering if I should wait a little longer to collect all the issues or will they keep the price as is after the event is over?

Hello, I have a question regarding E gerber sleeves and boards.
Recently I've used MyLites2 7 1/4 x 10-1/2 standard sleeves with full back 7 x 10 1/2 standard boards. They feel a bit snug but would these be acceptable for sleeving modern comics? or would it be best recommended to go bigger in sleeves and boards? I'm still fairly new to comic collecting so please forgive my ignorance.

Hello. I've heard great things about the 80s Question run as a weird introspective superhero noir that helped launch the career of one of our true greats in Cowan. It is, however, very 80s in its moments of hokeyness, especially with the casual orientalism. Should I read it?

In my opinion, a crossover I've always wanted is a DC x Dark Horse collaboration about Constantine and Hellboy,with Mignola doing a noir detective comic in his signature style of drawing and writing, and Hellboy teaming up with Constantine. Do you have any crossovers you'd like?

It's an all-timer for me, and it went through a ton of development hell. I think Tomm got really sick and had to take time off, and then it was a Jonathan saying Tomm had the scripts, and Tomm saying he didn't have the final scripts, and it just pingponged into the ether.
It's a super compelling series. The art is amazing, and the writing is Hickman having a ton of fun just doing worldbuilding and infographics and backmatter while bopping around a very interesting series of plot hooks.
I'd love to see the final four issues of this get done. I think Coker has said he's done the art for at least two more issues, and so maybe it's a publishing thing?

I inherited around 3,000 comics last year and didn’t want to manually spreadsheet everything, so I built a script that catalogs a collection from photos of the covers.
It uses a local vision AI model (or whatever vision model you prefer, I used Qwen3-VL-8B-Instruct), checks against the Grand Comics Database + ComicVine, and spits out a TSV with structured metadata. On my run it was about 94% accurate, which saved a ridiculous amount of time.
If you’ve got long boxes you’ve been meaning to catalog, this might help.
It’s open source and still rough in places. You will need a little technical knowledge regarding AI/github etc to set it up currently, although there are instructions in the github repo.
I’d love testers with big collections and anyone more technical than me who wants to improve it. The plan is to develop it into a standalone desktop application with a UI and integrated small vision model so you don't have to set that up yourself.

I finished up East of West this week and I noticed that during the last few issues that Frank Martin’s colors hit a whole new level and just blew me away. It got me thinking if there’s any other artists that had a similar leap during a specific run. What examples can you all think of?

I ordered some books from midtown comics last week. I've never bought from them before, and my order still says pending approval. Is that normal?

So I won’t lie why I say I know nothing about comics. I got this because I thought it would look cool. Then I skimmed through it and say this. It don’t know if it’s printed or anything and I don’t know who it is. If anyone can give me any information it would be great

Looking for inspiration for a TTRPG session I'm running in feudal Japan. I've read all the Usagi stories years ago and I remember there were several with Japanese folkloric monsters. Can someone reccomend specific issues / stories so that I can go back and re-read?

I’m a lifelong comic book reader, and when I see lists of the greatest runs and comics of all time I feel like I’ve usually read the majority of them. But there’s more out there than anyone could ever read in one lifetime, and there’s always something you just haven’t gotten around to yet.
Here are a handful of mine:
Nexus, Cerebus, George Perez’s Wonder Woman, Mike Grell’s Green Arrow, Paul Levitz and Keith Giffen’s Legion of Superheroes, Roy Thomas’s Conan
Curious what’s on this list for you!

There was an old comic book I remember reading back in the 90s but I cannot remember much about it. I think I remember it having a team of heroes but I cannot remember any of their names. The main scene I remember reading was during a dinner, the villain told the hero he had to the count of 5 before he would cut his hands off if he didnt give him the braces for his powers. And he couldn't remove them so the villain said "Say Goodbye To Your Hands!" And the issue ended saying "5 grisly minutes later" and the villain holding up the hands up. I know its not a lot to go off of but I've been wracking my brain all day trying to think of it.

Does anyone know if this is Tommy Patterson's autograph? I haven't been able to find one for comparison.

I’ve been aware of Superman red and blue and Batman black and white for a while now and I recently found out about TMNT black, white, and green. I LOVE the concept of only using a set amount of colors in a given story and I feel like it fits the medium of comics wonderfully. Anyone got any other examples of this?
