In this episode of Across the Marvelverse, I’m joined by my good friend Donny, better known as The Real McCoy Collector. Donny has built a reputation for curating a thoughtful Marvel collection that spans across cards, comics, and original art.

We dive into his Marvel story, his strategies for collecting, and the role comics play in shaping his approach. Then, we shift gears into a full Marvel Comics 101 crash course — covering the eras of Marvel history (Golden, Silver, Bronze, Copper, and Modern), what makes a key issue, how to store and display comics, and what drives value in the market.
