They are worthless unless you hand them down a few generations. Your kids kids kids kids kids. They'll be living on Mars and earth stuff will be worth millions. Of course, by then a candy bar will cost millions. :(

Of course they aren't.
They are not rare, once people realised the golden age comics were worth money people startes buying three or four copies expecting then to grow in value. When the publishers are sellung 7-8ml copies there will be loads knocking around.

I love comics and buy them to read not as a investment.

Comics are like anything else. Sometimes they are hot, sometimes not. Some books will skyrocket in value only to fall later. What's that death of Superman book worth now?

I have a book that was worth $200+ once, now, would be lucky to get $100 for it. But, since I only paid a couple of bucks for it, it's still a nice return.
