more like pretty deadly

With the demand for both Black Science #2 & the fourth print of Sex Criminals #1 pushing prices up, my friend and I were pondering a few questions:

 

1) How many titles have their most valuable issue be a non-first-print-#1 regular cover (excluding variants like RRP, FP, etc.)?

 

2) Why doesn't this phenomenon happen more often? #1 2nd/3rd+ printings as well as #2 issues are usually far more rare than the #1 first prints, and yet it's the #1 first prints that usually command a premium.

 

I know the "1st appearance" aspect means a lot to collectors, but with print run knowledge becoming more available due to the internet, is anyone anticipating a shift in the market for these more rare issues?

 

You jumping the gun way too fast on these books. These books havent been out a month or more yet. Look back in a few months and look were they sit.

I sold my extras ASAP. Doubt they are selling like they used to for that one week, haven't check ebay recently.

How about Venom #1 gold variant?

So which goon issues are hot? Just #1?

I got 2 copies, not going to keep them, don't attract me at all, I jut don't see the big deal over this issue.

I found one at the LCS, i knew it was hot so i picked it up for cover price, but this is hotter than I thought, I figured it sold for around $20.

Quick question for anyone that can help.

Was just wondering why Injustice gods among us #1 comic sells over cover price, is it short print?

Raw NM- Hulk 271 just broke the $200 barrier.

Dumb looking cover IMO.

No new hot copper...how will I pay the rent

 

 

I don't get it, why did it sell for that much? Is it a fluke?? I got 2 copies as good looking as that, if not sharper corners. Thouht Raw NM's first prints sold for like 10-20 bucks?

Why is this taking so long? Might end up dropping this. By the time the next issue comes out I already forgot what happened in the previous one.

I have a Tec 27 Lee Variant that will be ending tonight. I don't plan on shilling it, so we shall see if this is truly a $100 book:p

 

My copy should not be hard to find, if you even care to look.

WTF?

I collect comics, not magazines, therefore I prefer hulk 271. Is all about what you prefer really.

F*** 2nd, 3rd, 4th, prints, 1st prints is all I buy

teaser where?

Walking dead is here to stay. I don't read it, but the show is F'ing awesome!!

I envy all of you

but this might be the year I get one.

BUMP!!!

So just read 1-5, issues 1-3 I enjoyed A LOT. Issues 4-5 were confusing as heck, will re-read them slower, I guess I was rushing through 4 and 5. Will read issue 6 after that. Anyone else enjoying this series?

Just picked up issue #1. Love the art, can't wait to read it.

The certificate should be slabbed, at least the one I saw, the comic is slabbed and the certificate is in the back inside the slab, visible to see.

 

The certificate is not slabbed. It's likely that the certificate was inside the slab sleeve.

Maybe that was it. Can't post pics, I do not own the comic, my LCS has it for sell.

Prob a dummy account used on that one.

Dectective comics #1 new 52 heating up or something?

Ive seen a few go for an avg of $35 and one sold for over $50 last week.

I have #1 raw copy, but haven't read it yet. Everyone talks about this series, what's so cool about it? Anyone know how long this will be on going for? 50 issues? more? any idea or proof of a "contract" guaranteeing a # of issues?

I need to pick up TBP vol 1 and jump in, would be cheaper than buying individual comics, ten again...I do prefer the comics over TBPs...

The certificate should be slabbed, at least the one I saw, the comic is slabbed and the certificate is in the back inside the slab, visible to see.

Any idea how much they sell for in 9.8s?

I know of an 8.5 slabbed copy, but if $600!
