You have 650 videos and only 7.5k subs? Dude I thought u had x10 that amt....unreal bc your content is GREAT! Sorry it hasn't caught on huge yet but you will I'm sure.
I appreciate this comment very much. I don’t take for granted how many people make up 7.5k. That’s a huge audience. I enjoy the content creation and this community. Keeps me engaged and making videos
I found many beginning youtubers buys fake subs. You can easily see these accounts with up to 10 videos and 1k subs. I bet Spidey doesn't care about numbers. I love his videos because there are honest and pure of hobby ❤
If he did sports he'd be at 100k. Not a huge market for non sports cards outside of Pokemon. Regular comic book channels get more views. There will be a shift soon, the sports cards guys were ripping Marvel Platinum recently. Once they dip into the market channels like this will explode. Big fan of Spidey Hits he's a good dude.
Great news!! Im personally not specifically a Marvel fan.. but more of a comic industry fan.. i think most of us fall into this catagory. Its weird to only be a Marvel fan
As a superhero comic fan, I agree. Just want to keep the channel focus on marvel cards
All i can say is if Batman PMGs and DC Masterpieces are guaranteed happening, well then im guaranteed to be looking out for them.
This is amazing news for the 17 DC fans out there!
I wonder if Fanatics is playing a role in all of this behind the scenes?
I don’t know why people get hung up on the whole marvel only thing. I grew up with marvel/dc the same so this is awesome to me. I’m super pumped to get some Batman and joker sketches/ pmg’s/ autos. 👌
I was just talking about how cool Green Joker PMG’s would be with a shop owner the other day.. Blue Batman PMG’s.. Green Poison Ivy PMG’s! Let’s Gooo! Intimidation Nation Penguin’s!! I’m stoked at the thought of 😀
I am actually super excited to get a DC Unbound. I love collecting my weekly unbound and now to be able to get DC characters, I'm pumped! ANDDDD a DC Metal?? I cant wait
That’s great
Personally, I have zero issues with Marvel and DC co-existing on the same shelf. They are both fictional comic characters that each have top tier superheroes. I don’t think anyone can say they don’t “belong” on the same shelf while at the same time we all encourage ourselves to co-exist as humans on the same planet. Furthermore, if Upper Deck is blogging that they are “expanding their trading cards to include DC” I don’t think we should be too worried that they lost the Marvel license. The 2 words “expand” and “include” pretty much tell the tale. But, guess we will see. 👍🏻
Thanks Erik. My OCD wants different shelves lol
@@SpideyHits Lol. I respect that. I have a big collection of Marvel and DC Hot Toys and Sideshow statues and try to keep them separate but with my trading cards display, it’s harder to do that. 👍🏻
I'm making some 1 of 1 sketch cards now to sell on my Ebay. They are very intricate. I'm doing a Spiderman now in McFarlane style, there is a big web behind him. I'm doing the webbing all in silver holo foil, taking me hours to cut the tiny pieces and fit them in with tweezers. Then I got a red bubble holo sticker for the borders. I'll cover the entire piece with a cracked ice laminate or maybe firecracker. The back of the card I made it similar to the Flair Marvel Art Cards and did some photoshop on Canva. This card will be insane. Trying to finish it today.
such exciting news, i'm looking forward to a comic trading card renaissance 🥰
I love comic books..marvel and DC just as much..and as someone who just recently started collecting again it's been impossible to find any product on shelves where I live..and I can't afford to order $200 and up boxes..so maybe this will bring more product with blasters on the shelves of my local Walmart and such and I think that's a good thing for us that just enjoy the art and hobby.
That would be a wonderful impact Katlin. I hope it happens
Justin if this is the end my friend just know that you and your content are responsible for bringing old fans back in. Im an og to marvel cards and have been buying boxes since the early 2000s when they were giving them away. I remember buying a box of marvel universe series 1 for 65 bucks back then. I watch your videos regularly and just wanted to give you your props. Since uncle stan passed marvel movies and comics have been descending into the depths. The cards however are better than ever but prices are downright ridiculous. Let's make marvel cards affordable again
Thank you, Matt and I appreciate that.
They’re definitely should be an affordable component to Marvel cards
I certainly don’t think all of it should be affordable because there is a segment of the fan base that has grown up and has disposable income and wants to use it on what they enjoy but trading cars should have some affordability for all income brackets
Ive been ripping DC hro cards i wouldnt mind some upper deck dc cards thanks for info Justin 👊💯
Its about time
I enjoy DC as well. I grew up watching Batman and Superman. But my heart will always belong to marvel. I think it’s kinda exciting that they may need to expand looking for more unknown artists. My dream is make art for a marvel set whether sketch cards or one of many featured artists like they did for Flair. If offered to do some DC art for a trading card set I would be happy to do that as well and hopefully lead into marvel from there. What about you Justin, I’ve seen some really good marvel sketches/art from you. Would you consider doing DC art?
I agree with your point of view about the pros and cons, great video as always keep up the good work :)
To be honest, I’ve been disappointed with the DC Universe release of movies…it’s refreshing to think that a “re-boot” of the universe with top end cards! Let’s go! Big time Batman/Superman fan here!
Hmm with this news, and the current pace of set releases I wouldn't be suprised if they are unsure they can resign with Marvel. I do have some issues with UD QC but I'm not sure if other companies can do much better.
I suspect all card companies have similar qc issues
That's great for both if they have nice chase card's that you enjoy getting in your collection. It's only for me is the prices on the box and case. I collect all type of card's back then in the 90's.
I hope they release DC Masterpieces one year and then MM the next. I would imagine the smart way to go is stagger the releases.
I do have a DC masterpiece and the cards are pretty awesome.
Are you referring to DC Master Series? It’s not the same but similar
I'm starting a Green Lantern Hits channel! Joking aside I know this is going to put a hammering on my wallet.
Highly down for a green joker PmG. I have a metal gold blaster Batman from 1995-1996 I think. Was a fun jumbo pack rip earlier this year. I’d be up for new metal for sure!
Could be cool but I’ve never collected Don’t Care before. But it is a concern that this will disrupt the delivery of marvel cards in the future
Glad we are getting some quality DC cards, but I'm not confident in UD keeping any kind of consistent QC. They already struggle now
Personally excited for DC cards, but certainly understand the concerns. Hope they can co exist reasonably well.
Marvel vs DC set is fire 🔥 So even if they have to battle it out it should at least be fun and entertaining 😎👍
I can see this going one of two ways either the first way is what you said in the video where Marvel and DC start competing with each other the second way is that they go more in the direction of like Funko, where they have all these different licenses and different brands under the same name and this could be the start of that maybe not as many licenses as Funko but similar idea
Wonder how this will affect HRO DC ?
The cards are physical and say physical pending with the transfer option.
I am truly excited. I think a DC masterpieces set will be huge. Justin, do you think that Masterpiece will be as popular as a marvel one??
I really hope Disney/Marvel takes back the licenses so they can issue their own cards. QC at UpperDeck has been terrible historically.
hi im new here, so will these be the first DC upperdeck cards??
Hi Mr Locknet. Not the first ever but first with modern Upper Deck brands
Cryptozoic is releasing a dc heavy metal set soon
@@matttryon7212I think it’s sold out too
to be fair, DC Green Lantern by Geoff Johns is one of the best storylines out there to date
I wonder what this will mean for DC’s HRO trading card line.
HRO to the moon
Fanatics did acquire the Marvel License. Not sure when they take over.
Can you share how you can confirm this? I have not heard anything concrete
Um.. this is news to me as well. (Im contracted with Fanatics too)
Fanatics will make it totally unaffordable but probably way more exclusive
Definitely into this!
Big ups. We agree 💙
What an excellent video!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Admittedly I’ve always been more of a “hybrid collector” of both Marvel and DC.. That being said if I could only choose one of course it would be Marvel 😆 I still love the dark Art and cool characters in many of the DC universe comics and cards.
Look at Funko Pops!
They have many licenses. something for everyone.
Remember Upper Deck started with sports and when they took on Marvel cards they didn't stop making sports cards.
Maybe they are branching out.
I think they shouldn't create the same thing they did with marvel.
Like, masterpieces , annual and fleer ultra.
Make some original releases for them.
Hopefully they are just branching out and not leaving marvel.
What did you think of the marvel DC crossover in the comics? Did like or dislike Spider-Boy?
Dark Claw was the main star for me
Spidey hits is about to turn into Superman hits. 😆
I don't understand thinking DC and Marvel can't coexist on a shelf or collection. I don't care (DC) much for DC but I do have cards from the 90's. I don't like the idea of 'DC Masterpieces' naming. Masterpieces feels Marvel exclusive due to '92 Jusko set. If Upper Deck loses Marvel licensing someone else will pick it up. That is a scary thought tho. When you have Anime marvel cards, you have movies of The Crow, you have a Joker movie coming out. There is a lot of non-Marvel material and card collecting has room for every fan. I prob won't buy any unless there is original art and the price is right.
It’s my OCD. Marvel, DC & Star Wars need different shelves. Heck … Spider-Man, X-Men & Avengers need different shelves 😂
Most of us forget the vs system tcg that upper deck put out. They supported both dc and marvel at the same time. With how much marvel sets they are pushing out I'd say they are def switching teams. With marvel's current comic content the readers who have been supporting marvel for years...me included... are starting to sway towards the more adult side of the street
Think it’s just adding more to the upper deck portfolio to increase revenue. Long time coming.
Will likely bring more into the hobby.
I would be happy if Topps made Marvel, if Topps Marvel Collect shows anything, it shows the designs and sets are way better looking than the Marvel Upper Deck sets.
I'm jacked!!!! Green Lantern green pmg LFG!!!
What happened to DC HRO Cards?
No clue but I guess it’s a different license altogether
Ive been collecting marvel cards for years. It's been great having so many sets released these last couple years but with both platinum and flair i bought four boxes each and didn't even get full base sets. Im a set collector and at 250 to 300 a box its getting harder to justify these transactions. I have over 70 full marvel sets and never sell anything and I'm tired of explaining to my wife why I'm pulling so much money out. Rittenhouse didn't have the same quality as UD but for 90 bucks or less for a box with a guaranteed sketch I'd say bring in another company
first artist...Joe Jusko DC Masterpieces...imagine if that happens...
would be insane
Harley Quinn cards! Nuff' said!
Spidey Hits has a Nemesis.
Who will be the antithesis? -Dru
Me.... Swampy Hits
Lots of rumors fanatics is trying to buy the marvel license. we shall see.
UD is already a monopoly as it is ... IF they secure DC & Marvel liciences for cards ... us the consumer is screwed. As it is .. its a duopoly now with Upper Deck & Fantatics for all the card brands they have under there wings now ... I am not sure anymore whom is NOT under them .. then say .. Pro Set & maybe .. Leaf ?
Fanatics is the monopoly not UD. UD only has Marvel and Hockey. Fanatics basically has everything else that matters. Panini is set to lose NBA and NFL in 2025/26.
I think you and a couple of your friends spent so much on the upper deck marvel cards that they had to expand to DC cards. Probably tax reasons lol 😂
Feels true 😂
I think its a mistake for Upper Deck. There's only so much money out there for people card collecting in general. Sure you might get some new $ coming in just for DC but Upper Deck is gonna split their product $ between the two franchises and not double their product $ as most fans arent just 1 franchise fans. So to fund the two franchises wont be worth it for them in the long run.
😭😭😭😭😭 my wallet right now. I’m getting me a Superman PMG
My opinion: look, dc has some cool characters but they don't have collectable characters. I remember the 90s, they had some cool cards but nobody cares about them enough to collect the cards. I had 10 friends that collected marvel cards and when dc started cards we all went and bought some, but nobody bought a second or third pack. DC just has too weird or off stuff going on. Marvel might go to a different producer but I think we will follow,🤷🏼♂️.
DC ruled Golden Age and early silver. Marvel took over. Stan's dead now. American Kid might soon swing back to DC. He might have nearly had his fill of Spider Mutants.
You never know. I think the company that keeps writing compelling good vs evil storyline with amazing art will prevail
Finally
I truly don’t understand this hate? I collect both Marvel and Dc comics and Toys and I collect Marvel Cards! Now the reason I don’t collect DC cards, is because there aren’t any ever made!! This is amazing news! All the Marvel fanboys are def butt hurt. However to anyone who enjoys comics toys and cards, this is amazing news!
No hate here. If you watched the entire video you will hear how I think DC trading cards are important and that there is a void of them for DC collectors, however, as a Marvel Card YT channel and collector, this does create questions for me regarding marvel cards.
@@SpideyHits I’m sorry wasn’t really saying you, I mean in general in the collecting community. I should have made that clear.
dam. I Just realized i have to unsubsribe from this channel and find one that does Marvel & DC cards 😔
🤣🤣
Meh! It won't impact Marvel. Dc is weak sauce
Since DC Comics have sucked more and more in the past years , they need a NEW ROUTE to try and get fans onboard... better bring your LIFEVEST ... Blub blub blub ....
I’m Marvel only. DC characters are bootleg Marvel characters.
Batman has been around since 1939 (Detective Comics #27) Spidey came around decades later in 1962 (Amazing Fantasy 15). Who bootlegged who? Love both sides. -Dru
Wildstorm is better.
Tons of writers, artists, inkers etc all work for all companies. Even Jack kirby made stuff for marvel and dc.
DC was here longer and Stan Lee was literally influenced by Superman when making marvel characters
There are certainly times where DC feels like a “Great Value” brand of comic heroes but DC also had the top heroes in Superman and Batman
