  1. I had to google some of their backgrounds to see what you meant. So Cap is black, Spidey is half black/Hispanic, Nova is half Hispanic, Ms Marvel is Middle Eastern, Thor is a white woman, Vision is an artificial life form, and Iron Man is unknown. Living in New York this is more like what I see day to day, just a mix of everybody. I think the day will come that we look back at all white teams and cringe at the lack of diversity. This.
  2. Amazing Spider-Man #1 Australia Supanova @ $40 & 4 bids? Is this an Australian variant from a comic con? Help me out here. Cool book but is it $40 cool?
  3. Rai #0 CGC 9.8 getting attention from the market. @ $182 & 39 watchers.
  4. That was in that 'Best Copper Age Haircut' thread. I think she came in fifth place. hahahaha I have to go dig that up! Best Hair Of The Copper Age
  5. That book has been off-and-on hot for a long while now. Even raw copies have ranged from $4-$8 for quite a while even when the market was slow. 1) Part of the 3-part story where the original X-Men form X-Factor. 2) Return of Jean Grey after the events of the Phoenix where she supposedly died. Cap explains to Mr. Fantastic about the strange object they recovered from the bottom of Jamaica Bay earlier that day and how it has a living creature inside. When Reed decides to check it out for himself, he places a hand on it but some force attacks him and throws him back. Reed's fall is cushioned by a forcefield projected by the Invisible Woman. On Reed's direction, Sue uses her powers to make the capsule turn invisible, revealing the unconscious body of Jean Grey inside. However, due to the brevity of their glimpse of the woman inside the capsule, nobody present can identify her. After discussing who the woman could be, the Human Torch and She-Hulk decide to go and reunite with their loved ones leaving Reed and Captain America to try and solve the mystery. Things being to get strange when suddenly objects begin levitating all over the Mansion, waking Sue from her sleep and startling a fatigued Reed Richards and Captain America after they have spent eight hours working on trying to open the capsule. To their surprise, the woman inside the capsule finally breaks free. Jean, still thinking that she is a prisoner of Stephen Lang and his X-Sentinels believes that Reed, Sue, Cap and Hercules are more Sentinel constructs of heroes and attempts to attack them. When Sue restrains Jean with a forcefield, both Cap and Reed realize that who she is, and that as Marvel Girl she was a member of the X-Men who has been missing for many months. Telling Sue to lower her forcefield, Reed asks the confused Marvel Girl to explain what happened to her. OIC. So is that Sue Reed with a mullet!
  6. Fantastic Four #286 9.8 with 22 watchers? Okay, I give, what's up? Surely the title "1st X-factor" isn't the reason this title has so many watchers.
  7. +1 It's also the one Valiant key that I was never able to find growing up. It seems like it's always been a tough book. At least for me.
  8. Harbinger #1 CGC 9.4 copies are fetching $89+ and have a good number of watchers. Normally I wouldn't care but there are four various graded copies all bubbling up to the top of the list on Lyria's modern age list so it seems like a legit hot book. Let me get my popcorn out and see how high future 9.6's and 9.8's will go.
  9. Two of the top 3 Silver books are mine. I finally made it
  10. Over on the Lyria Exchange website, under most watched CGC graded comics, I see two copies of Brave and the Bold with an extremely high number of watchers. Also, just a few days ago I saw a ton of watchers on a Brave and the Bold #60 CGC graded issue. I think it's safe to say Teen Titan's are getting hot! Time to sell?
  11. All I know is that someone bought #4 CGC that was on eBay a couple of weeks before me. Still not happy about that.
  12. I don't consider that an outlier at all, just a nice price for a nice book. I haven't seen that much interest for it until now (38 watchers now. wow). Hence my out-liner comment but I think you're right. (thumbs u
  13. Here's an interesting out-liner, Spectacular Spider-Man #27 9.8 @ $108 & 37 watchers. It's the 1st app. of Frank Miller's artwork on Daredevil and predates his run on the Daredevil title. Perhaps due to the Daredevil franchise on Netflix, collectors are picking up this key issue in the hopes..?
  14. Any demand for the 2nd and 3rd printings? How many of those things were printed?
  15. Nice snatch and grab! But if you live in my neighborhood I'm not as pleased..
  16. The reviews are 5 stars.. Review #1 Review #2 Review #3 gave it a 7.5 out of 10, But they also gave Silk 6.5 out of ten. (thumbs u #TeamSlippers
  17. It's working ! -J. Unless you are going to call shill and somehow trace the shilling back to 2103 this book has been over $100 in 9.8 for quite a while. Its a good quality comic and the character is well written. That usually bodes well for a first appearance. I usually call BS on these fad books but this is a book that I have felt has been undervalued for a long time. I have been stocking up on these. Every time I see Bagley, I have him sign a few, in fact I had him sign five 9.8 candidates last week
