Kung Fu Fighter #5 Lady Shiva looks to be picking some steam... a 9.8 recently sold for 765

I am trying to get this whole run together and still need to get a #1. Hopefully I find one in the wild. Great job. Sorry Hector cleaned me out already I kid

Nothing earth shattering, but all for 20$

Quick! sell all your WOSM #18!!

The bubble will burst when this thread gets to page 98

He should pencil ONLY if Milgrom gets to ink!

Amazon is definitely a sellers heaven. Just master the ranking system and youll champion this platform.

Deadpool outclasses that book. Same price tag NM 98's would sell much faster. Only reason TMNT #1 is worth that much is of course because of the low print run. John are you talking outta your azz again? NM 98 outclasses TMNT #1? I don't know why people have such a hard time admitting that the prices for TMNT #1 are heavily influenced by the low print run and census numbers. John is absolutely right in that if it had similar numbers to NM98 it would sell for much much less. Since the comic comparison isn't possible due to the vast inequity in available copies, look at the movies for a comparison of "demand". The last TMNT grossed just under $500M globally. Deadpool is at $609M and still chugging strong, despite having an R rating which makes it less available to the population than TMNT. Will probably end up somewhere in the $800-900 range. You tell me who is a bigger global success TNMT cartoons run 12 times a day. My kids watch about an hour of turtles a day. My 4 year old calls me dude. I'm going to guess they sell a lot more toys than Deadpool. More clothing. More coloring books and other krap. Surely my 2 and 6 year old that watches the cartoons,reads the comics,has TMNT clothes,bedding, and just about every toy there is will disagree too! My son LOVES the cartoon, especially the recent episode where they enter Mikey's "psyche" and his core manifests itself as a child. My son calls it the "baby Mikey" episode and asks to watch it at least once a day among all the other things (Paw Patrol, Cars, Toy Story, Spiderman, etc). In fact, because he loved the cartoon so much, we have a ritual where I record all the new episodes and we sit down and watch them each week together. Its fun! FYI - this current cartoon version debuted in 2012, a full two years before the latest movie "resurrected the franchise..." You are right, everyone is buying their little kids $10K comic books because the turtles are huge. Prices would not fall if there happened to be 2,000 9.8s on the census because we would just have more 4 year olds running around with slabs of TMNT #1 clutched in their grubby little hands. You make zero sense. 1 - TMNT has been a cornerstone of pop culture and kids media for decades (movies, cartoons, tv shows, action figures, video games, comics, books, stickers, school supplies, stuffed animals, other toys, etc). 2 - Current adults grew up with TMNT and are now at a buying age to recapture a nostalgic piece of their youth with TMNT 1. 3 - TMNT 1 (first print) had a small print run, making it "rare" relative to other comics. 4 - TMNT is still popular today, making it a "safer" investment moving forward because the children of today become the buyers of tomorrow. These are are all true statements and they are reasons why TMNT 1 is worth what it is worth. What is your issue? And 5. TMNT was a trend setter in the 80s with Anthropomorphic and B&W wave. It was a copper age key then as it is now. But...... Deadpool has been more relevant WITH COMIC BOOK SALES than TMNT for the past 3-4 years now. Regardless of movies or history I can currently sell high grade NM98 copies alot faster than a TMNT book of equivalent value. Rarity+value doesnt necessarily mean demand Why are we even comparing the 2??? Because they are 1st appearances? Thats silly. TMNT is a different animal. TMNT is not as big with comic books as it is with movies, TV shows, merchandise, toys etc.. Deadpool is predominately a comic book success. It remains to be seen whether he will branch out to other markets than the comic book market, so until that happens theres nothing to compare here.

ewwww... I loved the slut outfit ten times better

Love and Rockets #1 Usagibedo

Same here. One of my birthday cakes was the cover to #58. The picture is somewhere. If I find it, I'll post it. FIND IT

I remember when Hawk & Dove came out and seeing that cover thinking its Art Adams, I bought it immediately without thinking, next month everyone was talking about that book and this new artist. the next big liefeld book was What If #7.. When it got to NM85/86 Rob was already the new "new kid on the block" (fresh soon after Mcfarlane) and then everything else followed

Its all Arthur Adams fault

Pet shop boys

Thanks for the add

I remember when Myspace was bigger than Facebook

Aftershock comics Doesnt get much talk over here (on the boards in general) but looks like alot of those titles are moving well.. Nothing EXCEPTIONALLY well but overall well. Wonder if any of those will pick up...

Yes indeed. January started to pick up for me and the past few weeks have been insane. Congrats

I have done more research that you can possibly fathom on this. There is no Deadpool appearance prior to NM 98. "prototype" is the key word. I have also found no "prototype" in any Marvel or other industry publication! Here are some clues

Soooo... any other observations on this months sales figures

Its funny. If sellers list an item on eBay with free shipping, will you accuse them of taking advantage of you if you buy multiple quantities from them? Its all about the final price. Always But I hear ya

Im sure he does, but even he illustrates a smaller cut offered to distributors/ Its certianly not half
