About Comics Buyer's Guide

Started in 1971 by a teen-ager in his basement trying to put comics fans in touch with each other, Comics Buyer's Guide -- known throughout the hobby as CBG -- is the world's longest-running publication about comics. Because there's a comic book for everyone, CBG delivers more than 2,000 reviews a year. Because buyers deserve accurate data, CBG has developed a price guide based on actual transactions, not guesswork.
