This will probably go to second and even third printings. It has significance written all over it.

 

I'm wondering if later printings will have a higher cover price.

 

This weighs in.

 

Big book.

 

BIG print cost.

 

Image is pretty good about keeping prices low. Have they done anything like this before?

This book doesn't seem all that rare (in my area). I saw a solid stack of 10 or so at one LCS (haven't visited the other 7 shops in town).

 

Fixed it

 

Why don't we wait until the published numbers are out for this book before you make a case for being legitimately rare.

 

I haven't had trouble finding this issue in any lcs but I would say 80% of the copies I did find still on the shelf had significant surface creasing and indents on the covers.

 

I examined about 15-20 issues, and didn't see these issues. Maybe some regions were distributed bad batches.

Picked my copy up in Central Florida, all on the shelf were pristine.

Going to be picking up Nail Biter without a doubt.

I never stock up on #1s unless I start seeing 3x sales on ebay, kind of like this one here, missed the boat on MD though.

I missed the boat on Manifest Destiny as well. Wish I hadn't. By the time you see 3x sales on eBay it's probably already too late though. My LCS was keen to get me to try out Southern Bastards, they put things in my pull box for me just in case I'm interested. While I did pick up the issue, the shelf had only a few copies left. Hope this series takes off, but that's for time to tell.

People buy #1 issues anyway, weather it's good or not, If they see a #1 sitting on the shelf, they buy it. You can't chase and buy everything as much as we all want to.

Agreed. My first lesson upon comic book collecting was to stop buying every #1 on the shelf.

Sketch of Crow by Nick Dragotta on 5/3/2014 in Alameda.

 

Love your sketch. If Dragotta is ever in my area I'd have to bring in some extra cash to get the four horsemen sketched for me. I've been more apt to collect artwork lately than anything.

Picked up these bad boys yesterday.

 

Very nice, how'd you come about them? I only have one copy, but will pick up more whenever I come across them.
