The Johnny Bates Memorial Collection

Here you’ll find a variety of resources to help you learn more about collecting comics, communicate with other collectors, get access to professional grading services and much more.

For example, on this page is the registry listing for a set of comics collected by a Collectors Society member. The row highlighted in yellow contains detailed information about the comic you were viewing on the GPAnalysis site. The registry also shows the other issues in that comic’s set that the collector owns, along with the certification numbers, grade and score for each issue. Rankings are determined by the total number of points earned in a set, and may change as new issues or competitive collections are added. (To learn more about certified comic grading, click here). Members of the Collectors Society post information about their sets for other members to see and discuss. Building sets is a fun and interesting way to learn more about collecting comics and connect with other enthusiasts through friendly competition.

In addition to the comic book registry on Collectors Society, as a member you’ll have access to the message boards, events calendar, news and more. Meet other collectors that share your passion. Learn about your collection and others. Stay up-to-date on all the news and happenings in the world of comic book collectibles. Access professional grading services to certify your comics.
