Hello guys, I am rather new to taking my collection seriously. I used to buy comics here and there but they would usually be few and far between. But I recently got into collecting to a borderline obsession. The question I have though is how do I know how much a comic is worth and whether it is a 1st print or 2nd print, etc...I have read online that in the barcode on the upper right corner there are 5 numbers. First 3 numbers are the issue #, Fourth number is the variant, and the Fifth number is the printing #.
can somebody help clarify this? To my knowledge most of my collection are 1st prints. Here is some of what I have..
