I suppose the marketing is working, if it wasn’t for all the controversy and fuss I might have never heard of this book. Now they need to capitalize on the marketing by making them easier to buy...

Does this feel a little bit like a ploy to get you to pre-order all of their books before you get a chance to read one? Or am I just being cynical? I still can’t find a 2nd print ☹️

Wow, that cover really pops in black and white!

Good call, thanks! I just preordered 2-4 on tfaw. Maybe I can read #1 online somewhere?

So my lcs is one of the 100 stores that have the books. When I went in they were sold out of eniac, of course, but they said they can't get the later printings because they can only order as many as they had the first prints, and they had already sold all of them. Also, it's too late to order the rest of the series. All I could order was the whale one (should I? It looked kind of goofy to me). Does that sound right? If that's true then there is literally no way I can read them. What kind of *$%! backward marketing is that?! Very frustrating, as I actually was interested in reading it.

Yeah 15k is crazy. That’s not even a key issue is it?

Like lou_fine said, Another one where 9.8 is 10x a 9.6...

Seriously, this blows my mind 😳

I don’t know if this counts, but I got this from the sears catalog in the 80’s

Remember when the issue where Cap picks up Thor’s hammer was like $75? That was pretty silly

Where do the books they pack in come from? Is there a warehouse with old unsold stock?

I’m going to miss finding reasonably priced joes. It will happen to Sandman, one of my other favorites, soon. Get them while you can 🙂

I love Joe but it seems like every vehicle has missiles that, when fired, would burn the driver, 🤨

It’s a little silly, nobody wanted this book 2 days ago and now all the buy it nows are like $75.

That was the first book I bought off the racks as a kid. 44 is a cool lady jaye cover too.

I just looked at ebay, the buy it now prices are ridiculous. I haven’t heard of this show, will it tie in with the snake eyes movie?

I love hearing these stories from older collectors, I started in the late 80’s. When did speculating become a thing? Was Alpha Flight the first modern “spec” book?

No, that’s really odd. And to my knowledge they never reprinted any of the special missions issues?

2015 was a different world...🧐

Wow, I’ve never seen this before. Did they make more of these? Is it magazine size?

I was thinking that also. I actually have the phantom menace trailer on film. First appearance of darth maul, should be crazy valuable any minute now 🙄

What on earth?!

This confounds me. I can’t even tell the difference usually and 9.8s are consistently double the price. It seems like either 9.8’s are vastly overpriced or 9.6’s are vastly underpriced.
