I can find late Marvel newsstands its the DC issues that are really hard at least for me.

 

I got lucky and ran across this beauty at a local convention a couple of months ago. Unfortunately, it was the sole DC newsstand issue out of 10 long boxes.

I came across a Transformers Generation 2 #1 Newsstand in my collection today. Mycomicshop has their newsstand edition as an issue with a $1.75 cover price and no gatefold cover despite having a "Direct Edition" bar code. My copy has the gatefold cover, a $2.95 cover price and a Newsstand bar code on the back. I think what mycomicshop is selling is just a non-deluxe cover.

Quality books sell themselves. No hype required.

I love that storyline from FF #19: Rama-tut to Dr Doom to Kang.

'First' appearance of Supergirl in costume who is named in Three Mouseketeers #23 and Action Comics #251:

Yeah, that would be a preview not a cameo first appearance. A preview is like a commercial. It's just a notice of what is about to take place in a story yet to be published.

I noticed on graded copies I have seen, there is no mention of reign being wolverines daughter.  Is that because you know she is not the daughter of wolverine, or it simply hasn't been stated in the comic yet?

Interesting. I was questioning whether she is truly Wolverine's daughter. Reign's mother and wolverine both have black hair but Reign's stepfather(?) and she have blonde hair. Hopefully, there are some answers in issue #7.

The fact that there were 4 printings might be indicative of good reception, but publishers were planning "sold out" announcements before the books were ordered by 2014.  If you believe you have a book that could sell around 175,000 copies, then you can just print 175,000 and hope for the best, but you probably won't get any headlines in the trade publications... it's good, but not great.

However, publishers realized that if you can sell 140,000 copies of a book that will probably sell around 175,000 copies, then you can plan to get a headline that it is "FIRST PRINTING SOLD OUT" (140,000) then get another headline for selling 10,000 second printings that "sold out" then get another headline for selling 10,000 third printings that "sold out" and get another headline for "fourth printing now available!!!" then you get a bunch of trade publication headlines for selling fewer than 175,000 copies.  

That's the same number of books in both cases, around 175,000, but one marketing plan includes propaganda headlines that are free advertising for your brand.

Sold out denotes all the Diamond distribution supply has been sold to retailers. There's no way to know when every retailer in the country/world has sold out because there is no reporting system for that.That's what drives my theory that publisher's deliberately fragment some character's "first appearance". They don't want customers to just focus their monies on one title or an issue at a time. Speculators want to simplify collecting to "key issues". Publishers want you to buy every issue.

Yes, but #1s typically sell at high numbers. However how did the rest of the run do? I would wage that there was a massive drop off in sales by #3. Not to mention, #1 New Thor speculation driven numbers. 

Sales of subsequent issues wasn't the discussion. The sustainability of the recent high sales of issue 2014 #1 was. He said #1 wasn't well received. I believe it was. Issues 2-7 were pretty much fillers with the big reveal in #8. Even though #2 is a first full appearance issue it really isn't recognized as so. There are filler issues for every title so not really much discussion needed for that.

I haven't read TGOT #25. Is it possible that the female Thor pictured is a different female Thor (i.e. not Jane Foster)?

It isn't noted. It's just the same image of the Thor that's in Thor 2014 #1. One corner panel and a splash page. At the bottom of Jason Aaron's editorial page at the end of the comic is a pic of the cover of Thor 2014 #1.
