Collecting Comics
**THE INTERNET IS YOUR GREATEST RESOURCE**

When starting a comic book collection, there are many places to start. You should let your collection build itself organically, so find a title that interests you or that has been recommended, and start reading. The more you immerse yourself in a title, the greater your collection becomes. The more great titles you read, the easier it will be to tell the difference between superior and inferior comics. There is no right way to begin a comic book collection, so just start reading.
Once you have a good base, and you are ready to start seeking out the rarer, unique comics, you'll want to become familiar with various pricing guides, such as Robert M. Overstreet's Comic Book Price Guide. Using these tools, you'll begin to understand the value behind certain titles, the importance of condition, and many other details.
