It's baaaaaack!
The bane of 90's collecting has returned in a new and different form. While the madness of the foil-enhanced, poly-bagged, embossed, holographic, gimmick covers and editions of comic publications have largely gone extinct, the powers that be have found new ways to generate sales through exclusives and variants that hearken back to the "collector speculator" era. Join Andrew Farmer and Cole Houston as they take a dive into the past and the curiously similar present state of the comics industry!
