Tough to say, so I'll pick two instead of just one. First would be my complete set of Cerebus original issues #1-300. I've been collecting Cerebus since issue #100, so we're talking about 16 years, just about half of my entire life! I haven't always enjoyed every issue, but there's always been something that kept me coming back (and it wasn't just the collector completist thing). Dave Sim has his own viewpoints, but if you approach what he says with an open mind, you'll find he brings up a lot of valid points on a wide variety of subjects. Dave's one of the greatest minds working in the field, in my opinion.

Also, I'm very proud of my Valiant collection itself, I was 100% until a couple items got added to the inventories. Not sure if I'm going to worry much about buying a second print of the Harbinger TPB, though!

BTW, thanks ZWH for directing me to this thread, those ashcans are sweet, I'll have to keep an eye out for those.

Flinx, that sounds like the coolest thing on the list here.

I thought about doing that with my copies but I haven't been able to get out to as many cons lately.

I have a leatherbound edition of a Sandman reprint, but I have no idea who much it is worth. The Seasons of the Mists, I think.

One of the board members I met in NYC, ummm... svair.... has two just incredible compilation sketchbooks that he has the artists draw in. I was beside myself with some of the stuff in there...

I started getting the Marvel signed in '92 & the DC in '96. What makes it more fun is that I collected all the autographs at conventions here in Australia, mostly in Sydney.

Hi everyone,

I'm a new poster to this board, although I've haunted them and the site for several years now. My two collections are primarly anything Ironman along with the complete Valiant Universe i've put together.

I'd have to say that the my prized collection pieces (although I have things that might be worth more) are several of the original art pages I have, drawn by Romita Jr from the Armor Wars II story from Ironman Vol. 1.

Welcome to the site

Now run as fast as you can, and don't look back

I don't really have anything out of the ordinary with regards to Valiant, I'm afraid. My real prize would have to be my colorist pages of George Perez's art from the Judas Contract storyline in New Teen Titans.
