After finally finding a way to input all of my collection online and track their value I figured I’d give a weekly update on the currently trending comics within the collection as well as what is trending up for the week! Still so stoked that I stumbled apron covrprice.com. Once I found it I immediately had to pay for a membership. For anyone with a large collection that loves watching the current values of their collection CovrPrice is a must. They’ll keep track of your key comics, hot comics and rare finds! Give this weeks Top Valued and Top Trending a gander below! Let me know what your favorites within this list are in the comments! Much love comic fam.

 The 3rd edition of the TazAlGhul Collector Spotlight has finally arrived! Huge thanks to Jonathan @Comic_Drop for taking the time to give a little background on his collection and what he loves. As I always say one of my main reasons for firing up this blog is to bring the collectors, designers and artists closer together and tell some of their incredible stories. I'm extremely stoked to get a spotlight from someone out of the US to see how thing roll internationally. I was lucky enough to meet Jonathan a few months back through IG and had the pleasure of creating his logo. I'll make sure to share some of the variations / process of what we came up with below. Everyone has a different story to tell and I want to hear them all! Now let's get on with it ... Collector Spotlight #3 here we go! When Did You Start Collecting?Ive been collecting comics on and off since i was like 12/13 What Inspired You to Start Collecting?The Spider-Man and x-men cartoons  What's Your Favorite Collectible Item?My signed books What's Your Favorite Shopping Spot?Orbital comics used to be my jam but they have recently changed how they do new books so I’m currently in LCS limbo Marvel, DC or Something Else?Marvel mostly but i dip into everything.
What's your favorite part of collecting?Visiting the comic shops around the world! Where are you from, and where has collecting taken you? (Events, Cons, Special Travel Spots)I’m from Ireland (Antrim in n.ireland) i live in London. I’m not a big con person only been to a handful mostly in London at mcm. I did do Americans holiday where I traveled from New York to Miami and i visited a load of comic shops it was incredible. Favorite Comic Book You've Ever Read?Invincible is my favourite but I haven’t went back and finished it...  Name one collectible piece you don't have that you want to get your hands on one day?Name one collectible piece you don't have that you want to get your hands on one day? When Did you start dropping comics all around town?2008 Here's a little sprinkle of an example of what his superb drops look like. Literally genius ... and quite generous! Be sure to check out his drop map link at the end of this post! How many comic drops would you say you've left for everyone?Oh dam quite a lot... maybe around 200 single issues at this point Overwhelmingly positive don’t get me wrong sometimes books get dropped and I don’t hear anything about them. But when someone takes the time to write me its always so wonderful to read . My dude ... I must say what you do is totally awesome and unlike anything I've seen before. Something like this is such a positive boost to the comic community and probably even gets people into comics who never once thought of even reading a comic book. To everyone who enjoyed this little tid-bit be sure to give him a follow @comic_blog - Not only does he do superb things like leave comic books for free out in the world but he also dabbles in some legendary t-shirt art. My fav is hands down his sick batman piece. Check it out VVV  If you're interested in these beauties be sure to give him a holler on IG. Be sure to keep your eyes peeled if you're in the London area! There could be comics right under your nose and you didn't even know it. Click the button below to go to his Drop map so you can join the ComicDrop Hunt! Huge thanks to @Comic_Drop again for taking the time to do this! If anyone reading this wants to be the 4th Collector Spotlight be sure to shoot me an email @ tazalghul@gmail.com
For all the comic fam out there be sure to check out all of the comic collection in the shop below! Todays jam is a smooth funky sound that is 100% gunna get that body moving even if you are sitting at your home office desk grinding the remote work day. Give it a listen. Give it a Jam. Amen.  Jams of the day are back!Yes ... it's been a wicked long time since jam of the day has risen but with all that is going on we could use some musical suggestions on the regular. So ... without further ado ... the first jam in a while and it's a THROWBACK. Go back to the 90's with a Hot Hot Heat Classic and give it a Jam. Enjoy!  |
