First appearance of Drax is a non-factor in value of IM 55... He's completely subsumed by the big Titan. RMA has two accounts?

The seller must have been thinking of a different book.

I am surprised how much the Green Lantern 9 went for. I am pretty sure that was only a 1:10 variant? Been hot for a while. Try and find one.

Following along.... He was talking about people slabbing their books. There was not mention of a relation to value, which was the original question.

And still not X-Files #1. You must be the hit at parties with your quick wit. when was the last time a movie from an Indy title affected the comics price. Very true. Unless it's a big two adaptation, there are small spikes that don't last very long. Does D/H's Hellboy count? I would say no because he was a cult favorite before any movie. I also don't think the movie(s) did well commercially. Not to say they weren't good, but again, not near a X-Men or Batman. Hellboy was a fairly average character in terms of popularity, until the first movie. Prior to that, there was no activity with the books. SDCCC #2 and Next Men #21 were essentially valueless, and nobody had ever heard of Dime Press #4 (I don't mean literally nobody, and I wish I didn't have to type this caveat, but here we are.) That is demonstrated by the fact that there were only 3 copies of Next Men #21 on the census prior to 2003, while in the year and a half from July, 2003 to Dec 2004, the census exploded, going from 19 copies to 230. We don't know how many copies were submitted and when between Jan of 2002 (3 copies) and July of 2003 (19 copies), but it's quite clear that the movie announcement had a tremendous impact on the interest in and value of the character. Likewise, there no copies of SDCCC #2 on the census until the July, 2003 update, and no substantial amount of copies until a year later. SDCCC #2 remains the much more difficult book, with only 377 total copies on the census, compared to 1220 total copies of Next Men #21. Hellboy didn't make back its money, but Hellboy II did fairly well, $160M worldwide against a reported budget of $85M (that's about "break even" money.) Great, what's that have to do with the price?

Sheltered I was thinking he meant long term and something that actually gets made. Every book that gets optioned sees an initial jump. You can get Sheltered for $4 now and it was an easy $20.

That's not X-Files #1.

Movie date was announced on Sept. 18, 2014. 9.8 went from a $500 book to a $750-800 instantly. That's a huge jump. http://comics.gocollect.com/priceguide/view/155574

Then you better grab this: http://www.nealadamsstore.com/Batman-Detective-Comics-49-with-Neal-Adams-Remarque-of-Batman_p_1296.html Right, a $200 remarque that is available a day after the release, yet it's not signed?

True but I think it's worth repeating considering how high it is with that much time left. Do people here not often post links to books that are currently doing well and have done well in the past? Depends, some members post just one outlier book while others post all recent sales as a gauge of interest.

Ain't nobody talkin' bout Tec #49?

All of them, they connect to make one image.

Interesting, the upcoming connecting covers are not incentive based.

Not many listings yet. Could be the Old Man Logan of last week.

Says it is .

the $1.25 one is the "limited edition" (120,000 copies) second print The devil's in the details . . . in't it But it says 1st Print, are you saying someone may have had a false listing? Not on eBay!

$40 for a raw Avengers #316, why? Maybe months and months ago you could pull that before everyone knew about it, but it's not even really a key. Also, when you can get a slabbed 9.8 for $100 + ship, a raw should not be $40.

I thought selling Moderns was as well? My Spidey senses are warning me of a potential DANCE OFF soon! Come on, we're on a comic book forum!

Sorry to hear that . . . Perhaps, but was it really NM? Was it sent in an E.Gerber Mylite2 with a buffered fullback? Was it impeccably packed and shipped immediately? Believe it or not, It's the "wow" things that make a difference. I know you sell high grade stuff, I'm just saying as usual there isn't a market for the book at the price you received. Of course there is . . . a data point is a data point. What's data points got to do with what I said? I'm not going down this rabbit hole. A data point does not make an average market price.

This is the perfect day and image for this thread!

Personally, I could care less if it came in a mylar because you are not giving me that for free, I'm paying for it somehow. Just charge me the nominal $0.10-0.12 for a polybag & board. I can buy my own mylars at a better price than a reseller.

IMO this makes the variants less valuable. Ordering 100 copies of Bloodshot is not something most shops will do. Ordering 100 total of Valiant titles more shops will be able to do. I was wondering why there were so many copies popping up online. I probably wouldn't have bought one had I known this. Was the Harbinger Lemire the same incentive?
