Do you every wonder what size comic bag (especially Mylar) you should use for your comic books? Should you go with Modern, Silver, Standard, Gold or Super Golden Age? They aren’t cheap, so it’s frustrating when you try to fit that 1970’s comic in a Mylar bag only to find out it’s too small.
Well your troubles are over!
Thanks to our friends over at the CGC Boards, there is a handy visual guide to how different comic books fit into each bag, from Golden Age to Modern.

Comic Book Sales Highlights from the Don and Maggie Thompson Collection
Heritage Auctions recently sold several high grade comics from the Don and Maggie Thompson collection. Don and Maggie were instrumental in starting the Comic Buyer’s Guide. Don passed away several years ago and Maggie kept working on the guide and several other projects. I ran into her a few years ago at the San Diego Comic Con and she was a pleasure to talk to. The comic books she has decided to sell are impressive to say the least. Here are some sales highlights (price includes Buyer’s Premium):
- Avengers #1 CGC 9.4 – 89,625.00
- Daredevil #1 CGC 9.2 – $8,365.00
- Fantastic Four #52 CGC 9.8 – $16,730.00 (an impossible black cover!)
