Mike Zapcic is back! The comic book guru and Comic Book Men fan favorite joins Joe and Maureen for an hour of pure pop culture auction chaos. From Avengers #151 to a massive multi-day comic sale, this episode dives deep into collecting, nostalgia, and even a moment when Joe and Maureen told each other to go f* themselves**—and why it actually saved the auction.

Mike also shares how he cut up comic ads as a kid, why encyclopedias still matter, and what it was like growing up with six older brothers and a mountain of broken toys.

šŸ”„ Topics Covered:

  • The upcoming two-part auction with 144+ long boxes of comics

  • Why Avengers #151 ā€œpunched Mike in the faceā€ (in a good way)

  • Auction pickup horror stories—from squatters to drunks and angry landlords

  • Eleanor Roosevelt letters, vintage telephones, and pristine matchbox cars

  • Why hardcover comics are underrated—and also great to drum on 🄁
