Most of the younger people I see at comics shows now--as well as the shops that have opened in the past 5-10 years--seem as interested in small-press or indie comics, zines, etc. and are only marginally interested in DC/Marvel. Maybe "Maker Age"? "Indie Age"?

Zoom meeting this Sunday 1-28-24 1:30 PM EST. Let's talk some geek before the NFL championship games. display your latest books. MDG , you still have to let us see you comics from last time. Yeah, they haven't been read, let alone filed away yet. Also, zooming w/ friends tonight to organize a trip to a Buffalo show on Saturday, so there may be something from that.

The only way we're ever going to get to the good stuff is by biting the bullet and writing these reviews. .... Looks like you were biting more than that...

I still say that 90%of comics lose their value over time. I think the tipping point for that was when the standard price for floppies hit $1, so the mid-80s or so. At that point, books either went up or they are eventually consigned to dollar bins.
Do you mean 90% of issues or 90% of individual books?

Yes, for about a year prices on HtD #1 were through the roof. By the summer of '77, I was able to pick up a NM copy for #1. Cei-U! I summon the flash in the pan! Yes--I remember some NYC cons where it was going for up to $20. I think #3 had "low distribution" and was also pricey.
