  1. Just curious if you think now is a good time to be buying modern books you want or if you think prices will continue to drop?  I’m trying to not buy in when prices are still up on books.  I do know we are in a recession but do you think the comics will dive in value more or stay where they are at now?

    Picked up 4 more DC packs today, 2 from the last batch and 2 from the current one, all wins. The funny thing is that a lot of the packs at this Walmart were opened and searched, including the 1st pack pictured with RWBY 7B. The 2nd pack is a duplicate comic-for-comic.Then there was a 7A in a newer pack, and of course the photo-cover exclusive Batman in the last one. I'm surprised these were all even there.

    This???  I was hoping you were referencing the New Champions Alex Ross cover.  That is a gorgeous cover.

    Yep that’s the one.  Sorry I thought I had put issue 17 before the 2nd print.  But yea I guess I lost touch with this comic.  I could of sworn around April it was still $2500 in cgc 9.8.  Guess the days and months are just mixing together now.  This cover is one of the worst covers I’ve ever seen, but if others like it, cool.  I just can’t believe it’s going for that crazy amount and it’s not even her 1st appearance.

    Is this the Ms Marvel cover you're referring to? If so, where did you see that? Also, considering there is a somewhat limited supply, I imagine that prices will fluctuate. Just depends on how many people are watching a particular offering, and how deep their pockets are.

    I'm just happy that when I was looking for Captain Marvel Comics when they announced the movie, I had to "settle" for the second print at 4.99. It's now a CGC 9.4, but I'm considering getting it pressed as it should grade higher.

    Yea the 2nd print. I’m kicking myself as a comic shop by me had literally hundreds of copies of this printing on their shelf for almost 2 years after it came out.  The cover is freaking ugly in my opinion.  On eBay and a 9.8 was approaching $5k with time to bid and a 9.6 is listed about $5k.  Other 9.8s are listed at 6k and higher. 

  5. Since when did a 2014 captain marvel 2nd print in Cgc 9.6 or 9.8 hit $4,000 or more?  Wasn’t it like $2000 6 months ago?  I’m all for people making money but surely this is out of line or are modern keys now more important than some silver age keys?

  6. I still don’t get why people are speculating on skaar when he probably won’t be introduced for a few years if ever.   It’s just insane that people are speculating on 2nd tier characters when marvel still has plenty of 1st tier characters to introduce in order to get to the other characters.  And this will probably take years to get to.  In the year till that happens, don’t people realize if we go into a recession, most of those books will be up for sale flooding the market and be easier to get at a cheaper price while waiting for the character to eventually appear in a movie or show?

    It's Sylvie the Enchantress. Young Avengers dark reign #1 is her first appearance. In a spanish speaking country she was named in the credits seen above. Honestly with this new leak/revelation, I have no idea how thor #5 or annual 18 isn't treading water. 

    Ahhhh I guess I missed that.  

  8. Man people really are jumping on dark reign young avengers now too?   Yea it has a young Loki on the team, but marvel could have him joining the original young avengers team, or even create a team not seen in the comics.  Why jump the gun over one episode?  If anything, you should get the 1st app of kid Loki in my opinion.  I own neither, but still if I was a betting man I’d go with that book first. 

  9. Seriously I’m starting to worry about the future for a lot of these people. I understand keys like amazing fantasy 15, hulk 181, etc will always have some value or retain value, but non key books or non big name heroes going for these ridiculous prices?  I have a few books I thought I’d never sell as they mean something to me but aren’t major keys or anything like that, I’m now tempted to just sell all my books and just rebuy them when the inevitable market downturn begins

    just wait till it get live action treatment (which there has already been talk of by exec producers).. the 9.8 prices now will be bargains.. it's literally the best non DC Marvel superhero story ever ;)

    Do you think now would be a good time to grab an invincible 1 graded 9.8 or go for a lower grade at this point?  It seems a 9.8 is about $9k.  Maybe settle for a 9.6 or 9.4?

    In this market where almost any 1st app is $200 in CGC 9.8, why would FS WW 1 drop?

    Question is how long will this last?  I’m already seeing signs of things slowing down already with the economy and 1 of my good friends whose pretty wealthy after investments he made in the stock market and crypto world, has been warning me that he is seeing signs of things possibly coming crashing down in terms of the economy.  Unemployment is drying up, prices of goods is going up, and inflation is starting so who knows how long any of these 1st appearances will be able to hold value, in terms of the newer and no name 1st appearance comics.
