    I know I Said “I’m done here” ... and I am... but I’ll go out with this final post on a positive note, because I can help a fellow Boardie:

    DO NOT Spend 1 penny on anything but the 1st print of Thor #1! There are so many 1st prints out there, the market / demand / potential for those  other prints looks dismal at best, and drops off sharply. It would be one thing if there was a cool cover art change, but with just the edge colors changing - run ..quick!  As for investment on a Thor Variant - I like this one the best ; ( even though it’s the boobless Thor  :idea: - if you want financial appreciation, this is a strong pick! Expect $100 / NM+ Per )

    Spawn 300 NYCC silver and gold are lighting up!

    all have high watch activity and steady sales with increased prices.

    Con variant that just came out...and is selling for quite a bit......and you think that it's "lighting up" and "increasing in price"

    :roflmao::roflmao:    sold copies tell a different story

    Eveybody, Dejah Thoris is up for preorder at Unknown Comic books for $85 risque, $42 virgin and $2.42 for regular trade. If you’re out of luck or prefer to pay MSRP, Golden Apple has them also. 

    1:50 for $85 ?  Yea, nope. Pass

    It is reasonable.  It also helps to illustrate how tough this proposition is.

    Since the quote, newsstand sales no longer exist.  So now, we have a cut point where the actual number changes.  Any guess using Comichron has to take that into account.  In addition, the rise in popularity of comic properties worldwide has likely affected international orders and sales.  Take the orders for Aero's debut in Agents of Atlas, for example.  I think the one Phillipino shop ordered very large on the book, enough to skew percentages.

    It really is a guessing game, and the unknown part of the print run varies from book to book, and pre and post newsstand.

    PS: Does anyone know if store variants are included in the Comichron numbers? Or, how about when Marvel double ships, as with the above mentioned Agents of Atlas? 

    Store variants are included in the Comichron order numbers. Double Ships arent, since they are freebies and not ordered by stores.

    It's the original version of the character. No different than any other character that was created in a different part of the multiverse and then written into mainline continuity. Perhaps you should try reading the books to familiarize yourself instead of blindly chasing the latest hot tip.

    Hot tip ? lol.  I'll let the spec sites crash & burn your "hot tip".
