I was thinking the same thing. I have Cap 6 on my "find" list for when I dig through long boxes, but every time I find one, I'm not sure it is the right one as the prices on eBay are rather bleak compared to other "hot" movie books. To be sure I'm not onto the wrong issue, these are the ones in question, right: Variant: http://www.ebay.com/itm/CAPTAIN-AMERICA-6-1ST-WINTER-SOLDIER-CGC-9-8-SS-Signed-Stan-Lee-1ST-PRINT-/271121263829?pt=US_Comic_Books&hash=item3f20162cd5 Orig: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Captain-America-6-strict-NM-NM-9-2-Out-of-Time-Part-6-tons-more-Kermitspad-/360534183696?pt=US_Comic_Books&hash=item53f1830f10

Thanks! I picked up two for cover at Graham Cracker for cover as well. I was expecting them to be @$10. Out of 20 or so copies, I only saw two 9.8's though. Still seeing a lot of bindery issues but not as bad as #1. Had a feeling you were a Graham customer based on your Loc. Do you know what their policy is on the Phantoms? I swear I bought the Deadpool within the first 7 days, but it was still marked up; perhaps because my manager had to ask another store for one? They still have a ton of FF #1 Phantom; no Capt or Hulk that I saw. Another Graham had a stack of Great Pacific, while mine had none. I saw a bindery issue on the one that my comic dude pulled for me and put in a bag; the one off the shelf looked to be pretty clean.

2 for cover price ($3.50). There was one more that I left for someone else. It's a participating store, and I think my LCS leaves them at cover price for a week then bumps them. Though that may depend on the publisher/comic, as a Deadpool #1 variant set me back $9.99 that I didn't know about until it rang up; think that was on the Saturday following its release.

$41! Not bad for a $2.50 investment. Thanks HAPPY! Saw that, too. Is there an icon for eating my words? Wonder if the person who bought up the 1-10 BIN will flip the 7 right back up there.

Would love to see it climb forever for greedy reasons, but $22 or so may be the ceiling. Can get a 1-10 run for $26.

On release day, my LCS had 1 phantom that sold to the guy in line in front of me. The regular cover he did put back to buy the variant, I bought. Those were the only copies I saw, though I went in late on Wednesday (after work). The following week, there was 1 regular copy on the shelf; not sure where it came from. I passed as I had some coming from the bay. Went to a different store this weekend as they had a back issue sale. They had 2 phantoms for $6.99 on the shelf; no regulars. A customer picked one up and said, "I heard a lot about this one. Bedlam." (pronounced "Bed Lamb.") I bought the other copy.

Anyone have an extra copy of #7 ghost to sell or trade for a Great Pacific #1 phantom?

Any opinions as to whether Walking Dead 99 will "take off" and when? ala WD 61.

The other night I placed an order for a few Phantom variants with Mile High at $10 apiece as listed on their site. They only gave me one, and are now listing them at $15 on the website. While I'm not 100% sure what really happened, I bought 3 copies of a single comic from Mile High via Amazon for a rather low price compared to eBay. Received an email a couple days later saying all 3 of these copies were "mis-identified" in the system and were actually a different issue number. No way to know the truth, but MH is not high on my list of stores to shop at.

I wish I had those kind of results. I had an auction end for Batman 13 and Batgirl 13 for $14.50. I can't seem to get on this Death Of the Family selling bandwagon. I tried to sell Batgirl, Batman, Catwoman, and Red Hood for $44 - no takers.

How much, from shipping to pressing to shipping back, does a Joey Post press run on a modern? And a general timeframe from your experience?

By Sunday I may have enough eBay bucks to finally get that elusive Chew #1. Would it make more sense to buy a graded 9.6 or take my chances on an un-graded "NM" copy? It's a tough choice (I think); trying to do the right thing here. -- dave

A couple sidetrack questions to the experienced sellers out there: I have a run of WD (20-80) I'm trying to sell. From what you have seen/sold, is it better to sell issues individually or in "sets" - like a block of 5 or a story set? This question is geared toward non-key issues. I also have a stack of WD TPBs - better to sell together or separate? Thanks for the info -- dave

I'm not sure if this helps or just fans the flames, but based on the clip below (at ~3:54), that is a good clue:

Noted; I will try and be sneaker in the future. I will also put up my own speculation title, so I can be proven wrong: Ex Sanguine Only one issue out, so not much to extrapolate on in terms of story. Not sure if there are sales figures out yet. For it: Written and drawn by Tim Seeley (Hack/Slash and Revival) Vampire(s) Detective story Against it: High cover price ($3.99) Currently slated as a mini Vampire over-saturation

Chuck - I am in no way asking anyone to hold my hand. Many members have posted their predictions here - as this is a speculation thread - and were very specific and open as to their thoughts. I asked for more information on someone offering up speculation on 5 years' worth of comics; if he/she didn't want to elaborate, fine. Again, where is the harm in this? I was not antagonistic or threatening, just asking a question a lot of other people had yet were not ridiculed for.

Mr. Donut - Any specific titles or even issues to check out? Mr. Donut - Perhaps you could buy them for me and have them dropshipped to me? Could you please enlighten me as to why asking for clarification is incorrect? This is a speculation thread where people post what comics they think will go up in value. If he/she doesn't want to elaborate, fine, but I don't think asking is wrong. This whole thread probably could have started and ended with a single post - "Comics from 1992 - current should go up."; I thought this was a place for people to learn about comics and collecting them. It was a joke. Stop being a crybaby, MANNUP, and speculate on some modern comics. Another intelligent response. Again, I can't live up to your high standards - could you please tell me what I should MANNUP about? I asked a question that many other people wanted an answer to, you swoop in and mock my question, and I questioned why would you waste your - and everyone else's - time doing that. For someone that complains about other people posting worthlessly on threads, maybe you should take your own advice.

Hmm, according to this, we'll have to sit on Happy! a little longer than that: http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/rza-direct-genghis-khan-biopic-376173 At least one more project, if not two, before we get to the horse. Any word on this becoming an on-going, or still a mini?

I know there are a lot of examples out there for people to prove me wrong, but part of the reason I liked Image and the other independents was the (recent) lack of variants. You buy an issue and that's it; it's the only one. I looked at the big 2 and there were at least 1 variant for every issue for most of their series; a big turn-off as you could practically see the dollar signs in their eyes. Sure, put out a variant of a special/hallmark issue (#1, #50, #100, etc), but what Bedlam and Revival are trending towards is a downer for me. /end rant

Hats off to my LCS, and, specifically, the manager, Jim, for making it a good, and expensive day. Went to two stores near my work around lunch and 0 Catwoman. Went to my LCS after work and Jim put aside a Catwoman b/c I had called the week before about Batgirl. BG was also put aside for me. There was 1 more BG on the shelf and ~10 BM #13. And the WD 103 variant on the shelf for cover. Back when Revival came out, that variant was also available for cover. I will not stray.

Anyone here want to lay claim to this?: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Death-of-the-Family-5-Lot-13-Batman-Variant-Catwoman-Batgirl-Red-Hood-/251169502944?pt=US_Comic_Books&hash=item3a7ade76e0

I just took the plunge on a BIN. Didn't want to, but I definitely can't count on my LCS having one after work. Or that it won't already be marked up to a similar price.

Went to 2 LCS before lunch and both sold out. Going to my "regular" LCS after work and not planning on seeing anything there, either. If anyone has an extra and wants to help a brother out... I will also accept a Chew #29 variant.
