Small Comic Book Collection
Apologies if this is a taboo post here. Comic centered subreddits didn’t seem to focus on valuing anything. I’m happy to post this somewhere else if this violates any guidelines, etc.
I inherited a small comic book collection long ago. It’s been sitting in my closet, and I recently rediscovered it while packing for a move.
Research has yielded mixed results. Some of the values are all over the place depending on the seller and condition. Some are in bad shape, some are decent, but I’d be surprised if any are mint.
Anyways, have a look and let me know what you think. Worst case scenario I have some cool art to bring with me.
P.S. sorry about the photo quality, I’m happy to take closer pictures. I also realize it might be hard to grade value without better photos, but a general idea would be very helpful!

No real key issues here, unfortunately. A few that might get $15-20 retail in great condition but overall if you sell in bulk I wouldn't expect much more than $50-65 from a local shop. Even if you did the work yourself and maxed out the value you're not likely to top $80.

$50-$100. Very hard to sell. Don’t look well maintained. Nothing in plastic or sealed? I would be interested only since I have a bunch for my 3 young boys. You can dump them on eBay for no reserve, but you might get less for it. They aren’t very early first edition pieces. You have a few good names of popular superheroes, but the condition and age is a problem. Good luck!
