The Marvel Collector is a new site dedicated to the very latest digital card collecting app from Topps, Topps Marvel Collect!
​
The Marvel Collector was created by UK-based life-long genre fan, Andy Bates. Over the last few years Andy has created a number of fan sites covering an eclectic mix of subjects, from Baseball Cards to Doctor Who, through to Star Wars.
​
Despite being old enough to know better, Andy appreciates that there are some things in life that you can never truly leave behind.

ABOUT ME

Andy Bates
Husband, father, genre fan and collector of stuff
Andy has had an unhealthy obsession with pop culture from a very early age, absorbing all genre movies, TV, books and comics put in front of him.
He picked up his first 'proper' comic, #1 of Star Wars Weekly, in 1978, but started his obsession full time with 2000AD #334 in August 1983.
His first Marvel superhero comic was Uncanny X-Men #210 in 1986.
He has been both finacially and morally bankrupt ever since.
