  1. Haha you must live in Vancouver. I went up for a concert and didn't know the area and my buddy got us a hotel on Hastings St. I'm surprised I'm still alive.... Harley Quinn's run look to be selling for $5-10 an issue. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Harley-Quinn-1-38-COMPLETE-SET-NM-MT-HTF-HOT-1st-PRINT-HoT-HTF-DC-Comics-/151140995683?pt=US_Comic_Books&hash=item2330b49263 Hahahahahahaha very funny. The link is too as it took me toe bay's homepage There is a card shop on hastings that has some comics...and if you go out to burnaby, Taz comics is on hastings....
  2. I think that news generates spec.... As the movies/TV shows get nearer there will be some spikage....it'll settle back down if the TV/movie is a flub...go up if it creates a franchise...
  3. devil dogs? http://www.ebay.ca/itm/DEVILS-DOG-1-2013-Monsterverse-Comics-HORROR-zombie-RARE-SMALL-PRINT-RUN-nm-/281190485313?pt=US_Comic_Books&hash=item4178424d41 all his other prices seems spot on....sure it's rare but is it good? anyone read it?
  4. I am having dismal sales this week in canada.....anyone else? it's thanksgiving up here and I would have thought that people would have time for some ebaying....no?
  5. welp all this talk is awesome but I really haven't seen any sales so far....so I'm not sure it's gonna be all that....course an hour after I say something like that....who knows
  6. Some dealers had stacks...the simple fact is that with a 30,ooo print run....there are more people that want them then to supply.... If you want to talk about the illusion of scarcity....how many people know that debeers keeps diamond prices high, and just don't care.... Try asking someone to marry you without a diamond in your pocket?
  7. I couldn't agree more, after reading it....it's really good, and such a tiny tiny print run....also a lot of them got damaged due to the odd size of the book...
  8. yeah I spec'd a little on them... The writing on ghosted is kick , and the print run is mild...it has a future The print run on Lazarus is pretty high....It's got a slow burn potential... Image has killed it's spec market due to returnability and higher print runs.... I think most speculators are turning to boom, titan, oni...they put out high quality books/stories with lower print runs........
  9. well the first issue is sold out and selling above cover now.... I just think that they are going to promote the book on their show 'comic book man' I am not sure what to think of the book...it's a bit more high brow....I like the pig man suit... you might be right...dats speculation, I think I only have to be right once every 4 books I choose as they go up an average of 15-20 bucks....and usually the ones I'm wrong with, someone still wants but not at inflated prices...
  10. It's simple advertising, ultimate word of mouth....once word gets out beyond those that read the independants ( those happy select few, those band of brothers ) It's dynamite so tiny print run right?
  11. I'm thinking of when the 'death' of anyone made news...how there was a sudden bump in prices... I think TV equals value as long as the comic predates the TV appearance...
  12. you all see the crytozoic man #1? It was an interesting read, but the prose got a little dense...some are gonna love it and some are gonna hate it...but what interests me is that it's sure to get promoted on TV ( it's by the comic book men )...and history shows that that makes a great value bump... right now it seems to be sleeping selling under cover...
  13. I don't think I ever laughed as hard as when I read mocking dead #2....I'm expecting big things from that comic... You know when the zombie invasion actually happens, this comic will be worth booku bucks ( or kat food rations, whatever )
  14. well that one is comming out on Dec 24th.... But Superior Spidey 24 is comming out on the 17th....which is a 3 of 4 part story line.... So we at least know that the superior spiderman and peter parker spiderman will be running side by side.... https://heavyink.com/comic/31670-Superior-Spider-Man-24 The solicitation also doesn't say anything about a crisis of identity... Is this too much spoiler? Speaking more meta...you have a franchise here with superior and it's growing, would you plan right now for it's death?
  15. https://heavyink.com/comic/31929-Amazing-Spider-Man-705 That's where I saw it, they could be mistaken?
  16. Lately I think the only way that you will see a serious jump in prices is if someone runs a shill auction somewhere.... I think that means that the print run has to be enough that a disreputable dealer somewhere has a pile of the comics.... I'm thinking that the target is 8-13 thousand print run
  17. nope because I can see a prompt to buy issue 704...
  18. So I recently saw that there's gonna be a amazing spidey continuing from 700.1...704..etc... BUTTT, I see that superior spiderman is continuing as well durring this time,,,so I guess peter's coming back but superior is gonna also stay....? Anyway I think that prices on superior have been lowish due to the uncertainty of the series continuing...so now?
  19. when I hear that kids and adults like it,,,,I think we have witnessed the birth of a new Dr.Sues...or the like...
  20. I just saw a preview in the theater of 47 ronin...staring our favorite dead pan actor keanu reaves.... What am I missing...there was a comic recently right,,,shouldn't it be blowing up?
  21. prices are settling on the 3D covers.... there aren't enough of them to go around, there never was... they look very cool... I think the batman ones will always demand more then cover...esp. the rare ones...
