  1. I’m after information on this Namor in colour . I’ll soon have the pre lim art for it in hand but I’ve been searching for the colour version for some time. Can anyone shed any light on it? When it was done Aprox or who may own it ?
  2. Looking for one of each character done by John Byrne . Simple clean example like the pictures below . PM me if you can help .
  3. I’m looking for this piece if anyone can help or lead me in the right direction . It’s Namor the Submariner by Bruce Timm. PM me if you can help or shed any light on this artwork for me .
  4. Actually made 85K on my Spiderman books then made another 200K on my Condo purchase . Thanks for filing him in... Also I never sold it I traded for AF15 so .....I did well anybody else want to stir up problems with good members then go cry to admin to have me banned? It sounds like I know who’s behind it . A loser!
  5. I’d take any low grade first print my friend and be merry about it . I sold mine two years ago 9.0 and regret it because I’d lived the turtles growing up . One of my top ten comics I’m trying to reacquire . Ironically 5 of my 10 picks I use to own and now am chasing and losing fast in the race . Oh the life of a collector ...... sigh
  6. A question for the more knowledge savey Cap America collectors ( timely ) . Which are the hardest numbers generally to find ? What are the rarest ? I never see many low numbers come up and most any issue costs quite a bit . Hats off to any of you that are gathering a run together . I can’t imagine the effort and money needed for that masterpiece.
  7. Thanks for info I had no clue . Picked this up locally only for signatures . Condition was 6-6.5 at best
  8. I’ve found baby soothers on discount for the ones that cry to admin to have people banned for zero reasons other than they think they own the thread. Certain personalities need to know they have to share the sand box with others .
  9. That’s what crazy bidding does . Nobody can keep track of actual value especially in last few months it’s gone crazy. Third prints are selling minimum over 1K that’s nuts to me . First printing is going to cost no doubt and is undisputed book here but even there it’s tough to see what normal is and what will be next year ? It seems like all printings just exploded . It’s hot property
  10. Just a little you can’t blame the seller. The money is big now and people will cash out if they can . Why not I guess.
  11. Saw this on eBay it’s for sale . Ridiculous imo
  12. How many soft covers ? Hard copies 500 double post sorry
  13. How many soft covers ? Hard copies 500
  14. What makes the sixth print so rare ? Is this a sixth printing ?
  15. The only rude person here was you . Telling me I was not welcome to post and now I’m an id.... some might say you’re just a troll or maybe this is only place you can feel comfortable bashing people . It’s ok ! You’re forgiven . Enjoy your second print!
  16. I could care less sold these in last few years : albedo 2 cgc 9.6 tmnt 1 first print cgc 9.0 ASM 1 cgc 4.5 AF15 cgc 2.0 ASM run 2-800 complete run many others I cashed out and I’m happy I did . Every single one of these books is available to buy at any time . They are only paper I put money to great use buying my home . That’s smart business !
  17. I don’t have it anymore I’m not angry these prices are made up . FOMO is pure make believe but I can see how people get drawn into thinking books are impossible to find and too rare etc etc. over the years I’ve learned any book aside from some htf golden age books can be had if you pay . Driving up prices can only be done by fat wallets . Poor collectors like myself wouldn’t do that . Why would we do that ? Who the hell is paying 12-20K during COVID for a comic . Not blue collar!
  18. I bought my cgc 9.0 first print for 5 K two years ago so there has been considerable price hike . Like insane price hike The other thing I want to add , this whole FOMO garbage as collectors scramble to drive up prices on everything it seems foolishly who invented that term? and when has this been an acceptable part of this hobby? Price increase blame it on FOMO , fake prices must be FOMO. It’s messed up .
  19. I can post wherever I want . I’ve owned all these books so I’m more than educated in price and opinion . Who are you to tell me I’m not allowed .
  20. We are not talking hundreds of dollars anymore but thousands . I highly doubt this appetite can continue in healthy way . There are wealthy people no doubt are they buying these all up ? print run 1st 3000 second run 6000 third run 30000 even at the two first printings there are 9000 copies out there . Where are they ? There are rarer variants today with print runs under 500 that don’t see these ludicrous climbs. The fact it’s a key plays into price hikes wether justified or not . Two years ago TMNT 1 and Albedo 2 were attainable comics ? Then what happened ? Don’t say it was a new movie or cartoon that’s garbage . Nobody cares about turtles today or the samurai rabbit . It’s fact . Comics for both barley sell I grew up in height of turtle mania . It was special and it’s shelf life is gone ! Im sure prices won’t come down you know why? The fat wallets that are buying these up for the next flip will dictate price again ! And again ! And again !
  21. No I don’t . To show who? The people defending this garbage or the dealers squeezing the life out this hobby . There will be no new money coming in years to come from young collectors . This has gotten so out of hand and it’s been pyramid scheme since it’s inception. The same dealers selling in early days have been same dealers rebuying and selling again over and over for more money . There’s your proof . In two years tmnt has gone up 150% how or why?
