Comic books are meant to be read! Buy them because you think they're cool, not as an investment, because chances are, if you thought of buying it, so did everybody else. So few issues become worth much at all. A few bucks if they're well-kept if you're lucky. I don't buy them to be collector's items. I buy them to read and to have on my shelf afterward and occasionally loan out.
In fact, I own more comics as trade paperbacks than as actual issues, so I'm obviously not in it for the collecting aspect, or I'd be buying the original issues. XD
