Just got $125 for a CGC 9.8 of Naomi #1 regular cover.

seems like naomi 1 is a book that will only go up. has everything going for it. low print run, no store variants, naturally built hype.

starting with immortal hulk 16 2nd print, they will offer a 1:25 incentive.Diamond#: FEB198211. this is how you kill incentive market imo

I’m looking to get a Stan Lee comic that is around 1k and important/key not just any one.  I’m all over the place So many to choose from.  What would some of you guys or ladies suggest.

thanks I’m kind of new to comics.  

savage she-hulk #1 9.8 

will never be able to afford original, so bought this. didn't realize at time of purchase he signed it just 4-5 days before he passed

Wait.... he died on the 12th.  Was Stan signing 5 days before he died?????

I'm not sure if I should applaud his stamina or wonder if there was senior abuse going on with his handlers not recognizing he might have been sick.

i recently bought a stan lee signed book for my pc, ive noticed cgc lists signing date of 11/7/2018. anyone know of a later signing date?

So I have 2 grand to spend and would like to know your opinions on which book/s I should purchase. Must be in cgc 9.8 condition of course. Thanks folks!

go buy 4 copies of ALL NEW MARVEL NOW POINT ONE! #1 CGC 9.8. this went from 100 to 500 last year on mcu rumor. once casting is announced it will go to 1500. Thor 337 9.8s are also great investments

Funny. I saw this on the shelf at Midtown and considered buying it. Looked up the character and apparently she appeared in Green Arrow first? How's that book doing?

naomi 1s are skyrocketing a B cover just sold for 35 raw

OK.... has anyone seen a date later than Sept 24 2018?

i have a nov 7 2018, i bought off ebay. didn't realize about date till today. i came here to see if its his last signing date

so marvel is bringing him back

artgerm det1000 web store exclusives

does any one know how he split inventory between signed and unsigned? for example the captain marvel 1 sets had 1250 print run, is it 50/50 split?

stadium comics is releasing a b&w cover with 750 print run. the original 500 print version wasn't advertised a head of time, i suspect this will sell out in minutes

First off, I apologize for bumping an old thread.

As you can see, I'm brand new to the forum and have only been into the comic book scene for about the last 5 years or so.  I grew up with them just like most of you, I just didn't collect them. 

As someone who is relatively new to this hobby, I found this entire thread to be very helpful.  When I first started, I had not a clue what the 1:25, 1:100 numbers meant, so thank you for helping me to understand that.  While I was reading this thread, I couldn't help but notice that something was repeated several times and it went in the face of something I noticed the last couple of years.

Several posters said that actual print numbers would rarely, if ever, be divulged.  I am a Star Wars fan and wanted several of the variants when Star Wars was re-launched by Marvel a few years back.  It seemed common that most (not all) regular variants were 3000 and the sketch variants were 1500.  Again, not all of them.

Then when Action Comics hit their 1000 milestone, they did the same thing and announced edition sizes for the regular, virgins and sketch variants.  I don't recall the numbers, but they are easily accessible.  Another one is the Dark Nights: Metal #3 Finch variant as many places state that at only 975 (I point this one out because I have it).

I respect everyone's expertise in this thread and I'm curious of your take on this.  Are these numbers made up by the retailers that get the exclusives or are they from the publisher like Marvel and/or DC. 

Please don't be too hard on the new guy and excuse my noobi-ness.  Thanks.

store variants release print numbers, ratio incentives do not

I'd flip them now. I wouldn't be shocked if JSC sells virgins at ECCC in March.

someone asked him that on Instagram he said no virgins will be made
