I Know an Inhumans movie makes a great deal of sense and it would be great !!! I really look forward seeing the Royal Family come to the big screen!

I was not impressed with the movie, will not be planning on viewing it a second time. This is simply my opinion of course.

Mind I ask, what grade is the AS #8

Congrats on the purchase

Last 3 very recent sales on ComicConnect for an ALL STAR COMICS #8 5.5 (Sold in auction for $61,000) minus 10% commission $6,100) Seller keeps $54,900 5.0 (Sold on the exchange for $55,000) minus 10% commission $5,500 Seller keeps $49,500 5.5 (Sold in auction yesterday for $69,001) minus 10% commission $6,900) Seller keeps $62,100

I wonder how much they will sell for. I remember the last 5.5 (not long ago) on ConnecConnect (ow/w? ) beautiful copy with no writing, no tape and no stamp sold for about $60000 and another copy in 5.5 sold a few days after on the exchange for about 55 or just below that. NONE of these sales show up on GPA. If they would I believe the average price per point would be lowered?

Thanks Gotham Kid. This your copy up for auction ? Nice book.

Hi everyone, Im looking for a copy of AS#8 . Looking to purchase or a possibly offer some great books with cash. Please send me a pm. Thanking you in advance

Gator, I'm a little confused. Back in June I asked you if you knew anyone who had a copy of AS8 for sale. You told me no and that you had sold all your copies (x9) a while back. You picked up 4 copies since June?

Been travelling a great deal and I haven't read the thread you posted...it confirms all that I've researched. X- Men annual 14 is his first Full Appearance. I'll change the title to the thread soon. Thanks Illustrious for the link

The book can still fetch good money on an auction, its a beautiful cover and still widely favored as his first appearance. It'll take time for people to realize the facts and even then they might not accept it. I'll keep one copy of X-Men 266 and auction the other copies to buy several X-Men annual 14's. Lets hope this ends up being a smart move. Time will tell.

I think I'm going to change the title: GAMBIT MOVIE MADE OFFICIAL (2016) ...GOTTA GET X-MEN ANNUAL 14 and not X-MEN 266 I just finished reading one of the articles (Doug Sulipa) in the Overstreet Guide regarding the first FULL APPEARANCE of Gambit and clearly it's X-Men Annual #14. Even ComicLink.com claims this fact...see link below: http://www.comiclink.com/Auctions/item.asp?back=%2FComicTrack%2FAuctions%2Fauctions%2Easp%3FclassCodeSelected%3DUpcoming%2BAuctions%26classDateSelected%3D2016-06-09%26dateCodeSelected%3D2016may%26dateDateSelected%3D2016-05-12%26IDUser%3D34986%26auctionSearch%3Dclass%26AuctionDateSearch%3D2016may%252C2016-05-12&id=1094052 I searched the net and read the 5 pages that Gambit was on and I'm now convinced that this is the book to buy ...this is still undervalued. Now what am I to do with my X-Men 266's ?

Gambit movie is still on the table...they are simply working out a scheduled release date after a shuffling occurred. I have a funny feeling that he might be in the X-force movie as well?

Good point CBT !

Anything over $60 Canadians pay taxes on.

When I cross the boarder to come back to Canada they will ask me if I bought anything and to declare the price so that they can tax me(import fees). If I do not declare the purchase I may get away with it unless they check my bags and then I'm fried.

Mmehdy: What grade will it be in? Is it your copy? Living in Canada, any book crossing from the USA hurts due to the customs fees. We Canadians not only have to pay a 31-37 percent exchange rate but also get hit with another 15 percent customs fee! I bought from Comic Connect and HA.com before and they don't help the customer lower the value declared. ComicLink is really the only company that helps and understands international buyers. I wish the other companies would do the same in the near future. Thanks for replying Mmehdy We have a great community online!

GAtor thank you for getting back to me so quickly, I really appreciate it

Anyone know where I could buy and/or trade for a copy of All Star Comics 8? Maybe in Canada but the US will do as well. I'd like to get a copy and keep it very long term. Thanks

G.A.tor, I would like to purchase and/or trade for a book that I'd like to keep very long term. I was thinking of an All Star Comics 8. 1) Is this a good book to invest in long term? What grade? Does page quality matter for this old book? 2) Where could I find one? Do you know someone who has one for sale and/or trade? Better yet someone in Canada. 3) What other book(s) would you recommend as a long term investment? Hope you can help

I'm very impressed Jim...good for you. I think you will make an awesome profit! I only have two in 9.8. The question that needs to be asked at this point is, " What price is the right price to sell" . Maybe we could compare X-men 266 to New Mutants 98 which went past $1000 and now coming back down to $700. Will X-men 266 do the same thing?

Who thinks Channing Tatum will be a good choice to play Gambit?

Meant to say Marvel Premiere #1

Snowman. You mention a good point. I have both books with me (Annual 14 and finally two copies of 266 ) . However, the people have already made xmen 266 as the real first appearance. Will that ever change? It's the same story with Warlock. FF 67- Thor 165 and Marvel Preview 1... Looking for other posters to weigh in with their view on this topic. Just be respectful. The_Investor

Actually I just bought two copies tonight. I never owned one before.
