No it’s rarity for high grade books . Most dealers don’t have 9.8s in numbers so when they come to auction like ASM 301 I posted a pic of the prices surge because of demand .

It’s not spec anymore buddy . It’s been few years of this now and high grade newsstands out perform directs
The newsstand was just that a comic that was manhandled at 7/11 stores etc and probability of perfect books is low
ASM 238,239,252,298,299,300,301,316,361 are great examples of huge premiums that’s just spiderman

What are you going on about? This thread is not about Canadian Newsstands.
It’s about copper Newsstands so does it not fit into criteria buddy?

Look at last sale of 9.8 Canadian . It was 7500.00 USD nothing hokum there my friend . Sales don’t lie .
So my stats are slightly off so what . I didn’t expect to get attacked this morning on threads for stating the obvious . For huge keys in 9.8 newstands they are premium compared to regulars and Canadian versions even more .
Bye now
Could care less about that dive Winnipeg or Doug’s opinion . Sales data are there .

I've sent a bunch of Canadian Newsstands the past 3 years and even though I filled our submissions 100% correct, they still came back without the proper designations on the label
I also have talked with several other collectors and have seen posts in the Canadian Newsstand topic who have said same thing - appears getting the correct label notation is a roll of the dice.
IMHO don't be a trustin' the CGC census on Canadian Newsstands
Here are the 3 for which I have scans, all were submitted Nov 2019 - what kills me is not only were my submission forms 100% correct but on the Supergirl it clearly says Canadian right on the book itself!
P.S. While I'm not a Canadian Newsstand Collector at a Fall 2019 con I came across a very friendly deal (name eludes me at moment - sorry man) who had near a kiloton of them raw. So I picked up a bunch I thought were really nice on a lark then started to sent sub them to CGC.

You in can trust this . They are 1% of total run . I live here . In Canada you had three major city hubs for comics , Vancouver , Toronto , Montreal . Finding high grade 9.8 Canadians is next to impossible . Hence the major major premiums keys get .
You don’t have to collect Canadian but if it was hulk 181 variant it would be all the rage

I have two copies of that one . A 9.8 and another I’m waiting on that looked as good as my graded one ….

I guess we wait and see. I’m more curious what happens now with 9.6-9.8 second and third prints

How did you go about getting a commission from Bret?

I don’t know about a million . That would be entering realm of detective comics 27, marvel comics 1 , Superman 1 . I don’t think it’s that caliber of comic . It’s rare in 9.8 those other comics are rare period . Like less than 50 copies or something like that .

Until what? Next announcements in MCU and then it doubles again . The whole industry is going to take a punt in the nuts if this doesn’t stop imo

I’d sell so fast at these prices I’m not kidding . Buy low grades if I could if I couldn’t who cares . It’s the price of a house ( more tangible as an asset than the comic ) . Anything could happen and poof value just drops

On Instagram a collector just posted a 9.8 first printing set…

Not published art but a special piece imo. Last September I secured a spot to get another Esad Ribic piece . I knew what I wanted without a shadow of a doubt . I kept quiet and waited . Today I was sent scans of my finished art.
Sub-Mariner 6 ( 1968 ) recreation , an hommage to what is easily my fav cover in Namor’s SA run. A fitting tribute to John Buscema’s original . The idea was to capture the unmistakable feel of the original in a modern tone . I asked that the scene be made to look like it was underwater .
Esad did John Justice here . A stunner

His schedule gets tight with work he has to do with Marvel and limited cons. I ordered this last September so it’s been a long wait . He does his absolute best to hook fans up. He will honour any commissions he takes on but there was no set time to receive them . If you’re cool with that it’s worth the wait imo. I need one more to finish my silver age Namor trilogy ….

Sub-mariner 6 Recreation by Esad Ribic
Art was done July 27/2021 at Anthony’s Comicbook Art shop (in house) in New Jersey. It was a special event where Esad flew in to catch up on commissions that were delayed due to Covid and his obligations at Marvel doing the Eternals comics . I’m very happy with the result .
The only direction I gave was it had to be identifiable as Subby 6 cover and I wanted his take on it ( modern version ) so the scene to take place underwater . He did a great job . One of my fav artists out there .
