  1. Look that scene is just a black screen. Yes yes it is totally fine everything is CGI.
  2. Interesting 21 or 23 has only that inside cover direct barcode. If keycollector people/youtube hot 10 people are reading please don't make this a trend fake newsstand comics. Any other people here collect Tomb Raider? I have the whole 1st volume plus Tomb Raider Journeys plus some variants.
  3. Yes, that exact comic book is featured in that trailer.
  4. Thanks for the info. Sometimes I write without even thinking what I am writing. What is so strange about that people are adding hard to find stuff in their WANT LIST Somehow my brain interpreted want list -> collection. Bad brain.
  5. Me neither. I was just checking some Dave Stevens prices and checked MyComicShop an found the info about it there. Also in Want List 13 people have added that to their collection in past six months
  6. Does anyone has a Seduction of the Innocent 1 2-D Edition? Is it really limited to 100 copies?
  7. What function this board would have if there would be zero tolerance of commenting about CGC related stuff?
  8. What I find funny is that this crook first submitted the stolen books but disagreed about the grades which made him faking the labels.
  9. I might be doom and gloom about the market but yeah no way that is happening.
  10. I think we are heading for maybe 2017? 2015? 2013? prices. All those people who came in to this hobby in COVID years have left. I mean those people who thought that all key comics were this rare commodity which you have to buy now.. People who stay around are collectors who still are buying some superhero stuff with somewhat inflated prices but prices are going down.. The landscape has also changed. Sure Marvel and DC are saying that new stuff is coming but I don't think any of those new properties will get new people to rush to buy comics. Right now it is almost like 2000s were people were buying Walking dead, The Boys, Invincible, Star Wars, Authority/Planetary, Spawn, video game related stuff.. and what is popular now in comics or TV shows are that stuff.
  11. Couple newsstands I bought recently for 3$ each
  12. Both are excellent but destroying Marvel and DC no. They have done it by themselves. I think almost all the people who talk about Boys and Invincible are in this comic book bubble.
  13. Tru. Not only has the prices dropped but lot buyers have left comics or so it seems. I have bought lot of stuff this month. I almost starting to think I am sucka because lot of stuff it almost seems that I am only one buying. I don't know who is buying some 9.8 spider-boy 1 but maybe those people need some 9.8 fix for a month so they just goto buy whatever new cheap 9.8 is there.
  14. HBD I think I will watch Popeye the Sailor meets Sindbad the Sailor
  15. I think the price difference between direct and newsstands are mostly because of youtubers. When they find a newsstand from 80's or early 90's they always point out that it is a newsstand copy but don't talk anything about the ratio back then. Then when they find a newsstand from 2000's they always mention how rare they were back then compare to direct copies.
  16. My opinion for a book from 1988 it really does not matter if it's a newsstand or direct.
  17. That is probably some AI written stuff. You will find that more and more even in real listings in Ebay.
  18. Yes, but he is also a creature of habit. I believe there is also CGC books that have swapped books which also have fake inner wells. Also there are CGC books that does not have any inner wells.
  19. So the "Netflix" Daredevil is back. What happened to that PG-13 She-Hulk version? well who knows and who cares
  20. CGC needs first to create a form in their website where you could check if a slab has pictures and grader notes. Second give some timeline when the new slab will arrive. Third in that new slab the inner sleeve must have a ID-number as well and some CGC Hologram or something like that so you cannot just go to Target/Home Depot to fake those. Of course the inner sleeve ID-number must be seen inside the slab. Finally if they can make a slab which is harder to crack then do that but anyways the inner sleeve is the most important thing not the slab. I think 2024 Conventions are going to be interesting. Something like this might happen: Customer: Hi, I am interested on couple of your CGC slabs. Dealer: Okay, here. Customer: Nice. I brought this highly sought after key to trade. It is a blue label 8.5. Which FMV seems to be about the same as those two books. Dealer: Let me check. Ou it does not have any pictures in CGC-site. Customer: Yes, it is a older one. Dealer: In that case I cannot go forward with the trade. How about if you crack the slab and I can personally check the comic book. Customer: Hmm.. well okay. CRACK. Here you go. Dealer: Yes, every think seems to be in order. It is a VF-NM copy with no restoration. So the FMV for raw VF-NM is $$. So I could trade one of my books to that. Customer: But those don't have pictures in CGC-site neither. So if you can just crack those slabs and we can make a trade. Dealer: You must joking! My slabs are good. Customer: Crack the slabs! Dealer: I think we cannot do business so have a nice day!
