I definitely still have an attachment to physical comics, but I'm ready to scale back dramatically. My tastes have moved more toward having good hardcover collections on the shelf and original art pages on the walls. And Marvel Unlimited & Comixology Unlimited are amazing for binge reading!
Yes I have been selling off a lot of my speculative keys as I see the market slowing down soon. But I keep a lot of my keys and probably won't ever sell them.
I'd like to eventually resume collecting some great keys, basically just to consolidate my collection and make it more manageable. I'll hopefully trade up some of my "bulk" into nice issues.
The current variant cover fervor dimmed my collecting enthusiasm. I hate that manufactured collectible aspect, and while it doesn't stop anyone from collecting Gold, Silver or Bronze Age, it just feels like it cheapens the whole hobby to me.
Yes I agree the 90's all over again I think or worse this time for variants. Comic books are a great escape just like steemit has been for me. I've been blogging a lot and am getting some positive feedback which is encouraging.
