This is a question Waste of money

I once paid a small fortune to a solicitor in a legal case. She got lost on the way to court, turned up late with the wrong papers and started an argument with the judge, who told her to "shut up, for the love of God". A stunning investment.

Thanks to golddust for the suggestion

The original Toxic comic and shit loads of Judge Dredd (2000AD)
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toxic!

I had every single toxic comic (in relatively good condition) and a LOT of 2000Ad magazine stored 'safely' in my old room in my parents house.

Until my Mum decided to have a clear out and get rid of the 'tatty old kids comics' - binned the lot.

This is grounds for having her committed
Seriously. Don't diss with the thrill power!

Ouch!
I work in a comic shop and feel almost bad for letting you know those would've been worth a very pretty penny. Unlucky amigo!

^this^
I was in our local comic shop (recently closed down due to lack of interest) I was initially looking for the fabulous furry freak brothers comics but was told they didn't stock them. As a mild 2000 AD fan I enquired about the individual comics and they don't print or stock them anymore, they only stocked the glossy annuals, so definitely would have been worth some cash to a collector. When at college I loved getting stoned and reading 2000 AD. It was sooo damn original; remember the segway things the mega city one fatties used to bowl around in, a perfect example of life imitating art.

I feel your pain
I'm sitting here looking at a pile of boxes nearly six foot high containing every single 2000AD since October 1981. No way I can part with my precious. Did I mention I was single?

Isn't this what every parent does? My mum threw away my set of Vizes (from pretty much the beginning) various girls comics and my dads rock'n'roll 78s collection cos she didn't get it...
