The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

colorguides are reducuctions of the original inked art that have been colored by hand(water color/inks, airbrush, or marker), usually for reference to then be scanned and retouched for final print.

if it is not for resale and just for your personal collection then only you can answer that question
I am not sure if they are a good investment or not

some are really nice. i like it when they have notations that kinda show u the thought process behind some of the decisions.
Tom Smith's colorguides are usually really nice, clean and fun to look at. and he's done a lot of George Perez, so that helps.
