Collecting
Collectors divide American comics into eras: the Golden Age (1938 to the mid-1950s), the Silver Age (1956 to about 1970), the Bronze Age (about 1970 to 1985), the Copper Age (about 1985 to 1991) and the Modern Age (1991 to today). The boundaries are conventions rather than official dates, but each era has its own print runs, survival rates, paper and pricing, which is why listings and price guides always state one.

Collecting
From the late 1970s to around 2013, most Marvel and DC comics were printed in two editions: newsstand copies sold on returnable terms through news outlets, and direct editions sold non-returnable to comic shops. They share the same interior; the difference is on the cover, where newsstand copies carry a UPC barcode and direct editions show a logo, a blank box or a different barcode. Newsstand copies from the 1990s onward are scarcer in high grade and often sell at a premium.

Characters
The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles first appeared in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #1, cover-dated May 1984, self-published by Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird as Mirage Studios in Dover, New Hampshire. The first printing was a black-and-white, magazine-sized comic of about 3,000 copies. Later printings from 1984 and 1985 look similar but are clearly marked, and only the first printing carries the high value.

Characters
John Constantine's first full appearance is The Saga of the Swamp Thing #37, cover-dated June 1985, by Alan Moore, Stephen Bissette and John Totleben, who modelled his look on the musician Sting. He can be glimpsed in background cameos in Saga of the Swamp Thing #25 (June 1984). Constantine's own series, Hellblazer, began in January 1988 and ran 300 issues.
Updated Oct 10, 2026
The Copper Age is the bridge between newsstand comics and the direct market. Prestige formats, creator-owned independents and mature-readers lines changed what a comic could be, and books such as Watchmen #1, Batman: The Dark Knight Returns #1 and the early Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles issues remain the era's headline keys.
Copper Age books were printed on better paper and bought by collectors from day one, so the market is concentrated in high grade. We focus on 9.6 and 9.8 copies with white pages and on the early independents, where small print runs make even mid-grade copies genuinely hard to find.
Every book ships double-boxed, signature-required and insured to full value, and you have 14 days from delivery to inspect it. Undisclosed restoration is refundable with no time limit under our authenticity guarantee. Have Copper Age books of your own to grade or sell? Start a grading submission or request an appraisal.
