  1. It’s probably a good start but impossible to know. I attempted to ask Cartoon Books several years ago about the print runs of the first 11 issues but never got a response. Then again, 99.9% of all print runs are a complete mystery.
  2. I’ve never seen any numbers for #2 & #3 but Jeff has said on multiple occasions that there was a print run of 3000 for the first print of #1.
  3. Ok, thank you. Given the numbering of his/her 9.8 and 9.6 books with one of them ending in 004, he could have had two each of both grades and didn’t take pics of both. Who knows
  4. The 9.8 #1 that was supposedly sold on eBay for a $12k BIN (shortly after the big Heritage $13k sale) is back on eBay. I don’t currently have a GPA subscription but the 9.6 #1 that this same seller had also supposedly sold lingered on GPA for awhile, even after it came back to eBay. I don’t know what’s going on
  5. What grade do you think that is? The 8.5 I saw on ComicLink recently confused me, as I have an 8.5 qualified with one or two color breaking creases while the ComicLink copy had several more. Mine was graded back in 2007 so I’m just wondering how much has changed.
  6. Anyone see the auction for the #50 9.8 last night? Went for $310+. Before a bid was placed, they could have bought it for a $100 BIN. I think two people put in oversized “win at all costs” bids and one of them paid dearly for it. My advice: don’t do that
  7. Correction: CB did not reprint #27. Image has the only printing of that story. CB #11/Image #11 and CB #26/Image #26 are essentially the same cover art but with different coloring. All of the other corresponding numbers from CB and Image have different art.
  8. First printings under the CB label include #1-20, 28-55. Image had the first printings of #21-27. CB did reprints of #21-27 with different cover art and Image did the same with #1-20.
  9. Ok, I thought you were implying OA. The only OA he’s sold has been promotional art and live sketches during comic conventions (always thru auction) and does free sketches for fans. I think Vess controlled all the OA from Rose so those pages have been around for awhile.
  10. That seems like a normal price to me (same copy sold for about $1.7k 9 years ago). Those two recent 9.8 sales still seem to be anomalies to me.
  11. Certainly seems like the seller may have been bidding on the Heritage copy. Everything seems just a little too convenient.
  12. I have 15 sales in my records since 2008. That 9.6 sale didn’t happen. The book is back up on eBay from the same seller.
  13. Was watching it live and I was This has to be an anomaly with two or three bidders who were desperate to have it immediately. Just doesn’t compute with me
  14. I hope this sale brings out the other 9.8s as I’m still looking for one. This particular 9.8 is a “middle of the pack” example to me but will be the best sale by a large margin.
  15. So you’re the one You got a great deal on that.
  16. Precisely zero copies of 9.8 Bone #1 have ever sold publicly for half of that. One sold on ComicLink for $5.4k a little over a year ago and that’s been the highest by far. The one on Heritage will probably sell for at least $6.5k but $1.2k of that is the buyer’s premium. Completely wishful thinking.
  17. What are you referring to? For 9.2s, there was a $910 sale and a $1070 sale in August of 2018 and a $1100 sale in 2019. This year, there was a single sale for $1.5k in a ComicLink auction. 9.2’s are definitely not “double” what they were two years ago unless I missed something. Both 3k sales were for 9.6s (Heritage in March and eBay in August). Please be specific.
  18. That doesn’t equal “serious heat” to me. Especially when one of those sales didn’t actually occur (the $4k BIN on eBay last month). The $2.6k BIN for a 9.6 on the same day did though.
  19. The 9.6 sale didn’t happen. It’s back up on eBay.
  20. Excellent! Jeff’s quick sketches rarely disappoint
  21. Sig looks 99% legit from my experience.
  22. I second everything above. The print run was 3,000 and it sometimes seems like he signed about a quarter of them
