Comic books. What to look out for? Which ones are the most suited to your personality? And how does one go from being an admirer to an enthusiast, or even a full on fanatic? This week on The Comic Experience Podcast we chat to Shane, owner at Cosmic Comics.

Shane started out selling comic books at the Hillfox Market in Johannesburg, and now seventeen years later he is the owner at one of South Africa’s leading comic book stores. They specialise in comics, graphic novels, and collectibles, and are known to stock a variety of current and back issues.

We find out how to tell if any of your comics could be worth a small fortune, and if not, how to go about investing in them. Shane also shares his views on what store owners should be doing to keep the comic book industry alive. So, if you’ve been thinking about getting in to comic books, well now’s the time!
