  1. Of course there is. Especially 1-10 For sure. Neat, thank you. Got any low grade issue ones with black label? Just this rag Sell Sell! No really sell!
  2. I really enjoyed the book till Marvel waved the white flag on around issue 60 or so. I thought it was the freshest idea Marvel had come up with in a long tie. When are people going to wake up that Marvel / Disney is not vesting in the long term. This reboot of #1's is going to continue until the facade is not working.
  3. Really nothing more that I can say but 100% agree with you here You may be the only one. Political correctness > truth. Correction Political correctness + Perception is the new truth.
  4. Congrats Tim! Well deserved sell out. +1 Well done and deserved.
  5. I thought maybe he was depressed over Birdman getting arrested.
  6. Then you are a couple grades higher than I am. I've got some staples popped and several yellow pieces of tape holding my bindings together maybe a 3.0 on a good day.
  7. +1 C. Jury is out on The Authority I know an excellent a attorney buddy of ours can help sell me. Are you certified and graded by CGC? Blue label or yellow? And if so what is your overall grade. Anyone have GPA on this one of a kind item?
  8. If you're suggesting a "perfect storm," that suggest to me you want all of these things together. But you're unlikely to get #5 if #2 is already the case. Your best bet is recognizing that the team has talent which the collecting community hasn't fully recognized yet. Given the criteria, Outcast by Kirkman and Azaceta is one recent book that comes closest to filling the criteria. Agreed. I think you're just looking to hit on as many of these traits as possible. Outcast is a good one and Enormous also comes to mind. My updated list: 1. New Story/Character(s) Introduced (No reboots or established characters getting own series) 2. Highly Regarded Writer/Creative Team 3. Upcoming TV Show/Movie Buzz 4. Ongoing Title (Not limited) 5. Zero or very few variants 6. Low Print Run 7. Great Cover 1. Agreed, though I would venture a guess that something old and familiar will be a big winner in the New All New Very New Marvel U 2. It doesn't matter who writes or draws the story. It only matters that it is way above average or better to me. 3. This seems to matter more with Bronze and Copper Marvel and DC books. Especially on 2nd and 3rd tier characters. 4. The Dark Knight Returns, Watchmen, 30 Days of Night, Last of Us, Kingdom Come, and many more kind of make this up for debate imo. 5. I think Saga's popularity was increased because of the RRP variant #1. I do agree that more than 3 or 4 hurt more than help. Enormous probably wouldn't be as well known without the variants. 6. I think there simply needs to be more demand than supply. There were more than 170,000 1st print Batman #1 books and more than 35,000 copies of Saga. 7. Along with the cover, the story and interior art. I would add 8. Internet word of mouth/big dealer hype. This causes everybody to take a look at a book. After they read it, then the collectors decide it's value. 9. Perception. It really doesn't matter if a book is really hard to find or not. If you check ebay, the hottest books out are available 24/7. Even Bronze books are very common in great condition but the thought that they might not be is what pushes the market. I'd also add collecting can defy all the above listed. Its like why are some WD #1 reprints going for hundreds of dollars while othesr are not ( yes some is due to low print run, cover art, etc) but sometimes the intangible plays into why something is desired. It is wanted just because.
  9. +1 +2 +3 ........ + ∞ I love boobs.. cant get enough variants of those True story.
  10. Was almost x3 when the 1st 9.8 hit the bay Wasn't that first to market at that elevated level?
  11. "Turn this muthah out..." No idea why it popped in my head but it seamed fitting I remember hitting the clubs and Hammer was letting loose. I did NOT know this was a cover. I bet you didn't like Snoop Dogg's song Who am I was heavily sampled from George Clinton's Atomic Dog. And hooray Enormous 7
  12. The funk is not strong with you then my friend. Parliament came before MC Hammer. I'm gonna roll with Hatebreed covered it. That's it, much cooler sounding now. What you need is some stride in your glide, a dip in your hip, beam you on up to the mothership!

  14. "Turn this muthah out..." No idea why it popped in my head but it seamed fitting It is because you were playing this in your head.
  15. Yeah, not sure why I did it. Perhaps it seemed like the financially sound thing to do. Maybe I like the torture of reading leaks and having to wait months. Or just maybe, it's because someone smacked me with a degenerate collecting stick and every book on my WTB list costs more than my first car did! In this day and age not hearing plot lines and spoilers is near impossible unless you stay off the internet for months.
  16. Do you need a short box for 5 or 19 issues? Might be time to use 3 ring binders.
  17. Don't expect it, same thing I said last season. The book has slowed down, but I was easily getting $20-30 for 2nd/3rd prints until end of season. I expect that to be the low end sometime next season. Yea, it's not going to drop in price now that the new season is coming soon. Going to have to wait until this season is over. +1 Be patient and it will heat up whenever they decide the story is ready for him to show up.
  18. Not anywhere near the recent Star Wars print runs. Add a hit TV show with millions of fans and that 71 k will look small IMO.
  19. There's a booth that has a stack of #1s for $12-14 each Didn't someone say or maybe it was Kirkman that the #1 issue wouldn't be worth more than 10 dollars back a few months ago?
  20. All of them or are some better than others? They're all good. 127 first new people 132 first alpha 138 first alpha revealed name 144 I think Dante is in there but I forgot his first app. Cool, which book had the first appearance of Alpha's daughter? 135 1st Full appearance of Lydia
