The Forensic Comicologist is both a play on words and a proper description of the science of collecting comic books. Chapters delve into the history of comics, coupled with the history of collecting those comics. The book also explains why some comics are popular and others are not.

A childhood comic book fan turned comic book retailer, the author soon discovered the prevalence of scams in the world of comics collecting. This book is his tutorial on how to collect wisely and reduce risks. Drawing on skills learned from twenty years with the San Diego Police Department and as a Comic-Con attendee since 1972, he covers in detail the history and culture of collecting comic books and describes the pitfalls, including common deceptions of grading and pricing, as well as theft, and mail and insurance fraud.
