Guess I should have been paying attention to this. 

Would have been a good time to sell the triple packs I have. 

Any particular issues?

I don’t know but if she needs help I’m her man 

Any Star Wars comic that became a “key” in the past two years

What's the significance?

Eternals movie is leading to #1 also selling. That’s a comic I bought when it hit the shelves. I’ve seen spec on that issue for a while. A quiet $5-10 book.

First copy from this title I have seen in a long time. I couldn't buy it
fast enough. And a sweet Horn cover.

I always liked this girl on girl cover

I just found it a couple of weeks ago in a 5 for $20 bin at a show - it was so cool looking I was happy to nab it! Not a newsstand though unfortunately.

Yeah I see it’s catching on. Like a $5 book

Homage to a favorite. 
 

I bought this comic off the stands. One of the very firsts. I love the sweet Bolland homage. Something about that purple

I thought the Werewolf was going to be a new, modern character, introduced just recently, I think. Shouldn't folks be chasing that book instead?

they're buying that also but $30 isn't forgettabout it pricing 

just like that Werewolf By Night 1 2020 has heat on it again 

Marvel Spotlight 2 is at forgettabout it prices

You state not Marvel then provide a Marvel example Not to mention an example of Spider-Man and in some cases X-Men covers drawn during Todd's ASM era (IMHO Todd's Prime). In no way is Infinity Inc Mr Bones comparable to 1988-1990 ASM era Spider-man or X-Men McFarlane cover which to many collectors are classic display pieces.  Sort of like comparing Kobe Beef to spoiled canned dog food.

Do you have DC examples? But not Batman which is the closest thing DC has to a Marvel level property.  Infinity #14 was Todd's first ever published cover and this has been known for years and unless things have changed the last 2-3 months is a book which in CGC 9.8 sells (or sits unsold) for $49-$75 at actual auction not talking BIN asking numbers. I don't have GPA subscription so can't check perhaps a kind soul who does will preset the data.

 

further.

It’s not a DC or Marvel case it’s a Todd case. That Infinity Inc run which is drawn by Todd happens to be DC and someone for some reason wanted to contrast the hotness between DC and Marvel. I’m just here talking Todd. But if we’re going there All Star Squadron 47 and Crow 1. Both bananas, both not Marvel. Just quality Todd covers.

Yes but that is Marvel!   If Infinity Inc was Marvel it would be a valid point, but it's C grade DC.    Its lipstick on a pig... I'm sure a few will sell in short term but buyers will get stuck. If you have 'em ready to sell, sell them now. Those thinking about sending submitting them for grading now, well the lake will likley freeze over by the time you get them back.

Apologies for my rant but the best way to get burned in comics is to think anything DC will truly be hot outside a few select outlier's IE: Batman, Joker and Harlequin. Even Suicide Squad has not maintained and that is far more marketable and in public awareness than Mr Bones.

Not because it’s marvel. Because it’s Todd. As said before anything Todd touches turns to gold. Marvel Tales are essentially a title of worthless reprints expect for Todd’s covers.

Everything McFarlane touches turns to gold even DC books. It's also villain Mr Bones first app and he looks a lot like Spawn. Check out the cape work  Infinity Inc is such a quirky interesting copper age team. Used to enjoy reading it as a kid. Nice to see it getting some love

For those reasons I think issue 16 and his whole run has massive potential. For those who think they’re worthless check what his Marvel Age 16 issue covers set goes for 

Time to prep Infinity Inc 16 for sale.. that book went nuclear 

Comics are the least on my mind at Walmart. So many options…

Wow a complete Thing mini, nice 

I actually read that series in one sitting. Really BA. The Thing franchise has massive potential for 4-5 movie reboots. There's endless opportunities with a creature like that. Especially in this environment I think they'll do well

the Dark Knight set,

those were $3 each but I got a little discount on those. the 1st and 2nd issue were 3rd prints and they were not high grade but it was hard to pass on a full set essentially priced for $12. The What if 10 was $30 but I got a discount as well as the Batman 366s

Some people just like to wait until the price goes higher I guess.

 

seriously lol.

Rare comics website says the DC test logos were distributed to selected parts of California. That's where I'm at. So I'm not surprised a few were recently found

Local show cheap buys

I would say finding the "Superman Comics" test logo books in a dollar bin made no sense whatsoever... except I found this copy in a dollar bin several years ago, as well.  (I also have a copy from around when it came out.)  I think I finally found the Firestorm for around $10, but that was specifically grabbing it when Half Price Books was doing a half-off sale.

Yeah definitely out of place. Most dealers know about it. He just missed them. Another JL test logo was found at another local dollar sale in my area.
