Better than paying that for the black logo

But there are degrees by which a comic is off. Unlike a card, it's not trimmed on all 4 sides. In the case of a wraparound cover, how do you determine whether it's not centered?

Well, a staple either stapled the page, or it didn't. Whereas centering is more of a gray area.

Very simple. List the book at a very cheap BIN on eBay and arrange for a friend to buy it immediately. They present your finds to the store.

Let me tell you about this team of kids called the Teen Titans…

I shouldn't have looked, because I sold my OO copies of 42-45 before the last episode dropped, expecting them to cool off (and really, probably never get hot again; it's not like it's Dark Phoenix which I guess they're going to keep making until they get it right). Nice to see they're still getting heat (but not so much ridiculous heat that I would have regretted selling).

You convinced me; decided it's time to say goodbye to my 9.9.

There's a $500 result (raw) from over the weekend. And a Direct/Newsstand pair for over $700.

I'm not asking about the art. If a comic has the most amazing art but the story isn't interesting, then the art won't hold my interest alone. So if one does know the background, is the story interesting? Or is it just one of those things that one keeps up with because they've invested the time to read hundreds of issues?

I haven't read Spawn since the early '90s when the series launched. Are the new books any good? Or could the renewed interest just be nostalgia for the hype of when it was released; people remembering Spawn, seeing it's still around, picking up the new books and looking for books from the lean years. If that's what's driving the demand rather than the quality, it seems likely that interest (and prices) will wane again, no?

Feige confirming that Moon Knight is starting to film within the next few weeks seems to have put more eyes on those books.

Until it gets to the person who knows how to write off the absolutely worthless drek for tax purposes.

Key Collector mentioned it.

One of the things that really annoys me about the '90s was how many cover designers that thought it was totally appropriate to distort the logo.

yes

the ratio is (all B):(all A), not (all B):(all copies), assuming of course that orders are tailored to take advantage of getting the rarer variants

Typical licensing deals involve the owner of the IP retaining the rights to any new IPs created under the use of the license.

Wasn't there some sort of deal where all of Aftershock's comics were available for development by a production company?

I saw somewhere that's it's being developed for a show or movie or something like that.

Just catching up on this series now (way behind on the CW shows, and figured I'd watch up to the Crisis crossover before watching all of those together). Interesting tidbit of info: the actor who portrays Jacob Kane was originally cast as Wolverine for the Fox X-Men movies but had to bow out due to a scheduling conflict with another movie.

I think one of the ways it appears this is going to change things is the gap between 9.6s and 9.8s

Funny, Mattingly was the player I was thinking of when considering this fact as well. The fact that comic characters don't retire means that there a growing number of highly desirable first appearances, so even though the census count of a comic is much lower than of a sports card, there are probably so many more individual issues that are desired. And not every collector is interested in the same character.

A copy of New Mutants 98 9.8 (not Newsstand, not signed), sold with a best offer of $3000.
