Chuck's Sorting More Comics

Chuck's Sorting More Comics

Howdy!

I came into our Mile High Comics at bit later in the day today, as I was working out on my farm until noon. This is my springtime pattern that lasts through at least early August, as trying to manage 32 acres (1,400,000 square feet) of land all by myself is nearly an impossible task. The good news is that the hotter weather that typically arrives around July 4th stops most of our weeds and grasses from growing quite so vigorously, so when that hot/dry season arrives, I can (finally) begin to catch up.

In case you are wondering, I keep working on my farm even though I am now past my 70th birthday for a couple of very important reasons. First, the constancy of hard physical labor required to mow, weed whack, prune, dig, and clear irrigation ditches keeps me far healthier than if I just sorted comics all day. Yes, I absolutely do still love sorting through comics, but sitting on your butters all day is simply not good for your health and vitality. Above all else, I believe in maintaining balance in my life, with moments of strenuous physical labor interspersed with my more intellectual endeavors. In many regards, that is precisely why I was able to bounce back so quickly from my truck wreck of last year. Farming keeps you healthy.

My second reason for working out at the farm is to retain a sense of humility. When you are just one person up against all of the craziness that Mother Nature (and Providence) can throw at you, you quickly come to realize how limited an impact that you really have upon our reality. I cannot begin to relate how many times that we had a great array of crops growing out in our fields, only to have a sudden hailstorm come along and chop everything to bits. Add in new diseases, bugs, and legions of invasive weeds, and you quickly become very grateful for whatever small (and momentary) victories come your way. Farming is an incredibly hard way to make a living.

Ashes leftover in the fire pit for a third time this season

Finally, while I am no longer working my farm as a business enterprise, I can remember with great clarity the difficulty we suffered through as a young family while trying to generate enough income from our organic vegetables to cover our costs. During our best year, we grossed about $40,000, of which less than half was earnings. Here at Mile High Comics we have single days (such as the annual Free Comic Book Day) when we gross darn near that much, and generate a similar level of earnings. Simply put, my farming experiences help to make me far more grateful for those blessings that we receive here at Mile High Comics. Once again, farming is very hard work, and (sadly) doesn’t pay diddly-squat. That, in a nutshell, is why, despite rave reviews about our organic produce, I stopped raising vegetables commercially, and converted my farm into (primarily) a wildlife refuge. I just don’t have it in me to hand-weed five acres any more...

Anyhoo, I will spend the rest of today, and pretty much every afternoon through August, sorting through comics for Will and Pam to grade, and to then enter for you into our Premium New-In-Stock link. We have been absolutely inundated with collections of late, with over 30,000 individual comics arriving on last Friday, alone. Honestly, just figuring out where to begin my sorting each day is akin to trying to grab ahold of a greased elephant. No matter where I turn in our Jason St. Mega-Store these days, there are more great back issues that need my attention. Sigh.

TOMB OF DRACULA (1972) (#1-70) (MARVEL) #1

I will close today with a quick reminder that our 50% off SUMMER! codeword remains in effect for you on all of the back issue comics and magazines that we have listed for you on our website. Only new issues, a few variants and restored comics, and our professionally-graded items are exempt. Back issues have been selling like the proverbial hotcakes for us in our Jason St. Mega-Store, so we are already anticipating a huge summer tourist season. Fingers crossed!

Happy collecting!
