Sagah!

Will trade 2 #3's for a #2

Btw looks like #3 has gotten great reviews all around - IGN calls it a must read now

The thing is the reviews for nwm have been great from the jump. I wonder if they will boost the print run up for issue #4 now that people are jumping on board.

So who here is willing to say how many copies they ordered? I ordered 15 through dcbs. Anyone else?

 

10 via dcbs

20

NOW, here is the question. Will the BLUE label sell higher than the YELLOW label.

 

http://www.ebay.com/itm/SAGA-1-CGC-9-8-SS-Diamond-Retailer-RRP-Variant-2x-signed-Vaughan-Staples-/140907724061?pt=US_Comic_Books&hash=item20cec13d1d

 

I'm going to take the 1st guess and say yes!

 

I think if the blue hits 1100 someone will pull the trigger and get the yellow.

 

 

Yellow sold at $1500...

 

It did not. But it was fairly close

Congrats on the sale! Now I let's see if a sig series can sell for 3k.

I think the #1 9.8 slabs will cap at $250. There are a tons on eBay that are readily available and more will be on the market when others start slabbing their own. Best to dump the raws between $80-$100 IMO. As far as the rrp. The sky is the limit on those.

Is there any demand for #2?

I think people are scrambling for #1 at the moment, but #2 has an even lower print run. I'm sure #2 will catch up soon.

9 now sold in the last hour

Doesnt the seller have like 200 in stock? He should give a portion of his profits to Eric.

Here are the sales figures pulled from comichron. Looks like issue 4 and 6 are pretty low print runs considering they do not have any published sales numbers. Could not find any data for the #1 variant. Since everyone is focused on hoarding saga and PP, now maybe a good time to start stacking this book.

 

issue 1= 7,537

Issue 2= 5,566

Issue 3= 5,579

Issue 4= no data on cc

Issue 5= 5,017

Issue 6= no data on cc

Issue 7= no data on cc

Issue 0= 5,526

 

 

I wonder what the CGC census numbers are for #1?

 

1 - 9.8 Blue label and 1 - 9.6 Yellow label

Thanks for posting the census numbers. The latest BIN on feebay for a #1 raw sold for $75. This is insane.

Image Yearbook 2010 SDCC is heating up on ebay

Hey guys I think this is the book Eric is talking about. http://www.ebay.com/itm/370742834104?redirect=mobile

Wow Im glad I got 4 #1s months ago then

 

That's an easy $200+ in your pocket if you decide to list them.

 

I actually meant to pass out a couple copies to friends that i thought would have had interest but that never happened.. I really liked #1 when I first read it so I went back for more.. This was after I missed Saga and MP #1 ha

 

Oh yeah one of the copies is a Gilbert Hernandez incentive too

This literally just caught fire less than 48 hours ago. It will be interesting to see where the market is on this book in 2 weeks. If it reaches Peter Panzerfaust levels, you can flip the couple books you have and fund it on the saga and MP #1s that you missed out on.

Oh, hey -- I noticed something else on here I wanted to address.

 

A few people said that Peter Panzerfaust has the "first appearance" of Nowhere Men due to the preview that ran in one of the earlier issues, but for anyone actually interested in tracking that sort of thing, that's not entirely correct.

 

There's a book Image published in 2010 called Image Comics 2010 San Diego Comic-Con Yearbook 2010 that is a collection of all-new pieces by everyone in the Image stable at the time. The cover is a unique Walking Dead illustration by Charlie Adlard, plus art by James Stokoe, Ben Templesmith, Joe Linsner, the Luna Brothers, Ian Churchill, Tommy Lee Edwards, Riley Rossmo Mike Allred...

 

...and the first Nowhere Men pin-up by Nate Bellegarde, featuring Karen in a "Science is the new rock 'n' roll" t-shirt.

 

That came out in July 2010, so well before the Peter Panzerfaust issue. We made them available for order to stores post-SDCC, so there may still be some out there for anyone interested.

Boom. Eric droppin some knowledge.

I'm with you for the most part but there will still be micro print run books that pick up steam because of great stories and/or movie deals.

Mind MGMT as a recent example. The book is selling for close to $50 with word of the movie deal yesterday. Only 7k copies of the 1st issue and 5k copies of the 2nd issue. These were going for $1 on ebay and you couldnt give them away.

I've been thinking..

 

Nowhere men #3 is the last of the short print flips for us.

 

Every other Image book with any substance is going to be over ordered from here on out. If not by the spectators, but by comic stores also.

 

I saw it happen at my LCS with Batman DOTF books. After batgirl and cat woman, the shelves still have every die cut cover available.

 

I think East of West is going to be the first book that everyone is going to have mega copies of.

 

There's always going to be a diamond in the rough, but saga, PP, nowhere men, ToT etc will be plenty ordered from here on out.

 

It's been fun...

Curious to see what the numbers are for East of West #1. Wonder if there will be over 37k

Here are the sales figures pulled from comichron. Looks like issue 4 and 6 are pretty low print runs considering they do not have any published sales numbers.

I wonder what the CGC census numbers are for #1?

Just picked up 2 copies!

 

Congrats. Now let's sit back and watch.

 

 

They had two full sets at the store but they wanted 5 each. Did the math figured I was better off just buying 1 & 2.

My LCS had the two full sets as well but for cover. 7k print run is pretty small. Hopefully, i can get a couple more #1 issues at cover.

Just picked up 2 copies!

Congrats. Now let's sit back and watch.

Hey guys, are you finding decent copies of #3? The copies at my LCS had little "rub marks" More like printing issues. The corners were sharp, but it was tough finding a clean copy.

Interesting information Eric put up regarding print runs. This is coming straight from the source.

I picked up 3 issues at my LCS. Can't wait to go home and read! Also, I hope my Thought Bubble variant from the UK arrives in one piece. =/

I was able to get 2 sets of 1-6, but no variant...

Is the variant a retailer incentive?

Just PM me with addresses, and I'll send out this week. Limit one each.

7,537 print run for #1 and Ridley Scott involved

my LCS had 2 issues of #1. I basically just built 2 sets of these issue 1-7 just now on my lunch break. I'll wait for these to heat up further before I put them on the bay.

BTW. I think there is 1 more, when i checked out. Go!
