  1. I didn't. If I would have known about it beforehand, I would have. -J. Back up http://www.ebay.com/itm/351952687118?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT Thanks !!
  2. You wouldn't happen to know what Image comic Gen13 appeared on a wanted poster as Genx would you? Gen-X was a precursor to the Gen13 comic series. Inside Image #6 - IMO, their 1st appearance.
  3. Assuming customers are actually still buying Marvel books......
  4. Nice !! 5 of those have not been released in the U.S.
  5. How much do you have invested in this? Already profited... but keeping some as a collector. Ain't a regular speculator. Yup, the 'ol pump and dump... The pump wasn't really because of this board. That was due to widespread media coverage. People just took advantage of a quick flip. The PUMP and DUMP is people saying and trying to make this Harry Potter's "1st appearance"......because really, it's just a pin-up.
  6. Do you have the issue # for this? love to get a virgin cover if available. Guardians of The Galaxy #11. No virgin cover. Comes out in April from Panini.
  7. Nice ! I've been looking for Gen13 & Wildcats ashcans. That one is tough to find.

  9. Is that a nickname? I cant find them on Google.... Midtown http://www.midtowncomics.com/store/search.asp?pl=16&q=venomized

  11. The HP is a full self-contained work and not a little cameo, so I am almost positive this will qualify as 1st app. NYX #3 is CGC 1st app. of X-23 for one full page panel. There's nothing else to call it, really. As for it selling out... yup, it's going fast. Isn't it just one illustration, no story? Same billing as every other work in it. There is art, there is text (Rowling's). If CGC designated "1st stories" rather than 1st apps., would give pause. You donate to a good cause and you get a piece of history. I'm not going to obsess over the particulars... +1 It's a cameo at best. There is not context for a story to be associated with it. You can't really compare it to many other appearances because they are part of a story. I'm just stating that if people are only buying these to have them slabbed, you may not get what you are hoping for. Do you have a pic of the page they appear on? Page 1 of this thread........
  12. ? Now THAT is funny. For those curious about the actual history of things, and not just what people want to believe are real, the Wizard list was very much like what you see today. All based upon someone trying to make money off of comics, the truth be damned. In fact, thanks to early Image's horribly late printing schedule, there were times a book would appear in Wizards Top Ten hottest comics, when in actuality that book hadn't even been released yet. Publisher's PAID them to have their books promoted. It was probably the most gratuitous example of taking advantage of consumers' greed and stupidity to feed a publishers greed that I've seen in the history of comics. And it led to the market shrinking down to it's worst numbers ever. To think for even one moment, that Wizard Magazine's intentions were pure or honorable, is completely blind. They saw an opportunity to take advantage of the marketplace and they did so with cunning and precision, and unfortunately with a carless regard for how it would impact the industry and the hobby. This is why people see flippers as bad for the hobby. It undermines the essence of what comics should be about - the writing and the art, and instead turns it into a product, a commodity; something to be bought low and sold high for the sake of money. Exactly
  13. Complete list: http://www.comicbookdb.com/creator.php?ID=426 Happy Holidays everyone !!!
  14. Tuesday or Wednesday we'll know when a certain retailer claims to have half a case of the "only" case that got out http://www.bleedingcool.com/2016/12/23/misprinted-saga-41-will-ship-to-some-stores-image-asks-retailers-to-destroy-them/
