Is there any collectors on here?

Any recommendations for a good comic book store or website?


Thanks

Asterix
I collect the A4 colour versions
In all good shops, as they say

They and Peanuts are the only ones I have truly enjoyed
I daresay I'd enjoy Tintin, too

Not moved in to anything else really - not in terms of Comics for older children as such

A really good friend of mine died this year, I remembered a particular comic he read, i nostalgically bought the collections off Amazon, they are called Love and Rockets, they are two sets of stories, strictly adult books though, i also got a love of the Butthole Surfers off him as well,but thats a band in case you didnt know.

Anything by Frank Miller.

Frank Miller's Daredevil is great.

I haven't really seen much of the daredevil comics. Might look in to getting a couple.

The Incal series is pretty good, great art by Moebius (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean_Giraud) recently re-released I belive, if you buythem make sure they are the uncensored versions (nudity)

If you don't mind me saying, that's a little like asking if there are any art collectors on here and where's a good art gallery! There are quite a few comic genres, so maybe a little more specificity on what you're interested in may help elicit better tips. Now, if it's silver/bronze age Marvel you're interested in...nerd
