  As someone currently saving up for a (low grade) ASM #1, I think I can speak on this. It&apos;s as expensive as it is due to demand; there are a ton of people, myself included, whose primary goal in collecting is to complete ASM, and you can&apos;t do it without #1. Further driving up ASM #1 is that for most people, myself included, AF 15 is out of range. I can save 10K for a low grade ASM #1, but 50K for an AF15 is out of my league. ASM #1 has become a (very expensive) consolation book of sorts for Spidey fans. I&apos;d also add that it&apos;s a very easy book to re-sell, if you ever want out of it.

  With grading being so ridiculously popular. You&apos;re basically turning books into posters. McFarlane has some amazing covers which I feel is why the Batman and hulk have the values they do. It&apos;s also why he has so many other books doing Homage covers to his artwork. Great video.

  The Night Nurse is what really blows me away. Did that 9.8 also come with your very own at home nurse?! That’s a real ridiculously high price and whomever owns that book must be a real huge fan of the character.

  As primarily a Wolverine collector who has been on the hunt for that for years. I can agree with you on 2 things. You woke up choosing violence, and it is overpriced.

  I found a Wolverine #1 at a vintage game/video store for 10 bucks last year. Sent it into CGC and came back with a 9.0.

  I NEVER understood why that Silk first appearance variant had that price. It baffles me to this day

  2.3k for 423 is insane, but I do love the cover and is a prized key in my collection.

  I agree with you all the books but ASM #1. I would love to own it because it started his solo series. Thanks for the video.

  The prices for books that are in great numbers are outrageous.

  Great video! &nbsp;I too loved the splash screens of &quot;Please don&apos;t hurt me&quot;....(8x if I counted correctly). &nbsp;I must say it was a master class in walking the tightrope between your opinion vs what me be &apos;popular&apos; opinion. &nbsp;My favorite line..&quot;WOW...I woke up and chose violence today&quot;. &nbsp;Noicely done! &nbsp;My thought on prices is that during the Covid boom I think many people started to become more interested in comic collecting. &nbsp;They saw what collectables values might offer and started to become more interested in collecting for profit (and maybe just re-sparked their interest in the hobby from their childhood days). &nbsp;Have a great day!!
