Digital Dinosaur, having had the pleasure of working in just about every media option there has been, is, and possibly will be! Picked up a 'few' Marvel, DC, Disney & Star Wars assets along the way, but as space & storage became issues, it was find another solution or ship out the beer league goalie gear. Then Digital Collectibles appeared! I hope to share my perspectives as a CDN comic collector (not a financial advisor) who has lived through physical-to-digital upheavals across every media, but enjoy how tech improves so many things we usually take for granted these days. Hoping a few of my thoughts can offer ideas or insights for your collecting journies, where my experiences shed light on how we ended up at this crazy concept of PHYGITAL. Thanks for sharing Your valued time!
