Got Comics? We’ve Got Cash!
Sitting on a pile of old comics you haven’t touched in years? Whether you've got a mountain of Marvel, stacks of DC, or some quirky indie gems, we want to hear from you! At Fantasy Road, we’re here to make sure those comics find a new home — and put some extra cash in your pocket.
Why Sell to Us?
Superheroes, supervillains, wizards, and wild creatures — we love ‘em all. So whether your collection is huge or tiny, valuable or vintage, we’re interested. Ready to turn your comics into cash? Let’s make it happen!
We are pleased to announce, that due to business growth, we are now expanding into further areas of collectibles, such as Trading card games (TCG), and more to come!
Our first focus will be on the two main TCGs, Pokemon, and Magic the Gathering, though we will soon be expanding this further to encompass all TCG types, such as DBZ, Yu Gi Oh, One Piece, and anything else you can think of!
Do you have a stack of old cards left laying about that you no longer have any use for? Well now is the perfect time to transform that pile of cardboard into a pile of cash! Trading card game pieces, such as Magic the Gathering, and Pokemon, hold some serious value in some cases, and this value is easily realised with little more than an email to us.
What are you waiting for? To visit our Pokemon purchasing page, click here, or to visit our Magic the Gathering purchase page, click here.
Have you got a treasured book knocking about somewhere, that you've decided not to grade despite the fact that you want to, solely because of the fact that there are no good verification services out there? CGC comics have always had the monopoly on the market, and as such, demand a higher value than any other graders. Obviously the problem here, is that they do not authenticate signatures. Until now.
For just £30 additional on top of your regular CGC order, you can get that treasured book verified, and graded, and back in its place of honour, all via us, using CGC new service!
The official release from CGC themselves, is as follows:
The Certified Collectibles Group® (CCG®) is thrilled to announce that Certified Guaranty Company® (CGC®), the world’s most trusted pop culture grading service, and James Spence Authentication® (JSA®), the world leader in autograph authentication, are now offering combined services for comic books. As of May 7, 2024, collectors can submit autographed comics for authentication by JSA and grading and encapsulation by CGC in one seamless solution.
What's more, is that the new JSA labels, are stunning. The gold and black really compliment eachother in the brand new pairing!

One of the things we've wanted to do for quite some while is to build a tool that people can use whilst trying to make money from buying new comic books, and guess what we did? Of course we cannot GUARANTEE that the books listed in our fancy new fandangled page will definitely rocket in price, but that's not the purpose of the page. The purpose of the page is to highlight the books that are most likely to do so using a mixture of insider knowledge, experence and common sense.
The categories for the Spec Deck will constantly be being updated as we focus more of our energy into growing it, but as a general rule of thumb, the ones that will always be there are:
Cover spec: Self explanatory really, as much of the categories are. If a book is marked as cover spec, it means that it has been selected either because it has an amazing cover, or the cover is done by a cover artist with historic data to prove their covers ten to sell well and rise in value - Such as Artgerm, Young, or JTC.
Story spec: This one means that the books in this category have an event within the story that makes them important. For example, an easy example of this one would be the new Spiderboy run. This is story spec, as it's the first solo titled spiderboy story.
First appearance spec: You guessed it! This one means it contains a first appearance.
All pre-orderable issues purchased from us have the option of being sent directly to CGC, with a 9.6+ guarantee.
This means that if your book is returned to us, and it's not either a 9.6 or 9.8, you can choose from:
If you don't see the issue you want here, it doesn't mean we don't do it! Just drop us an email at customerservice@fantasyroad.co.uk, and we'll get right on it!
PLEASE NOTE: Due to the nature of this type of product, pre-orders that pass the grade guarantee are non-refundable.

Are you looking to preserve, or increase, the value of your precious collectibles? Do you worry about the many stops along the way? The risky transport duration between you and your presser, from the presser back to you, then from you to all the way to the CGC depot in America then back again? Not to mention the complicated multiple insurances needed, the correspondence between all relevant parties and all sorts. Well worry no more.
The Fantasy Road is the one stop, be all end all, when it comes to this process. You send us your book, we clean it, we press it, we deal with the insurances and the postage, all the nasty details, we get it to CGC who grade and encapsulate the book, then we get it back to you.
So, as far as you're concerned, you send it to us in its raw form, and we send it back to you graded. Simples.
