Congrats Jim - well done!

 

+1 but I really need to see a scan of it

[Beige]

Not to derail, but I figured this is the best place to ask this. Any idea on what a Walking Dead 1-50 run with #1, 19, 27 all cgc 9.8 SS's would cost? All of the raw comics would grade at NM or better, and most are locks for 9.8.

 

The 1 and 19 is signed by Moore and Kirkman. The 27 is just Kirkman. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks all! Huge help.

 

Hi all-- sorry to rehash, but does anyone else have any thoughts on this question? I'm not too familiar with GPA, but would they have this information?

 

Ok

1) about $2000, with the right buyer a bit higher (slabbed SS)

2 - 4) $300 ish each purely due to the insanely low print run (raw)

5- 10) $500 depending on if they really ARE 9.8's. (raw)

 

19) $900 (SS 9.8 slabbed)

27) $450 - $550 (ss 9.8 slabbed)

11 - 50 about $35 - $45 each ave raw. This takes into account some great covers and some 'key' moments in the Prison/Woodbury arcs.

 

Depends how good the seller is (I assume you are buying) if he knows his stuff, and writes well,photographs well and utilises completed listings and GPA, then he will get more interest than an illiterate knuckledragger with a $1.99 camera.

So on the above you are looking at $5000+.

You may be better off taking your time and looking for a raw #1, or a cheap 9.8, cracking it and getting it SS.Same with 19 and 27.

As for the rest,look for large lots - they may take less to get rid,especially if the keys are gone. Keep the good,resale the non 9.8.

However - if you want this guys set - I would advise caution.

If the raw books AREN'T 9.8, you've dropped the cash and have paid top dollar for drek.

Personally,I would assemble in bits and pieces slowly. CGC 9.8's can be really cheap sometimes - IF YOU PUT THE WORK IN - and by that I mean looking hours a day.

I have managed before to get a #22 9.8 for $23 slabbed.

It's unusual but you can.

Thats a big price for that lot.

But its your money so knock yourself out.

Hope that helps.

Probably still applies for the most part, but I think he's selling - not buying

[Beige]

I really wasn't sure tbh.

If he's the seller - he needs to make his ad's better!

[plasticmoz]

I went back and re-read it and yeah - I suppose it could go both ways there. Initially I figured he was just shopping around for a number, but you're right - could be for him.

 

All I can say is, now is an interesting time to put together a set like that!

[comicsnyc22]

Yup-- I'm selling, the comics are mine. I bought extremely low and picked up a couple duplicates that have luckily came out all 9.8's. I've only gotten one 9.6 from #48, which I had signed by Charlie and Kirkman. I have no idea why it isn't a 9.8.

 

It's time to get some nice OA like that cover from earlier today. I know I need to sell a bit more, but I want a cover that speaks for itself!

Congrats on a beautiful cover Jim

 

 

 

Carl wandered off on his own, the search party was not impressed (fun with captions not an actual spoiler )

Anyone else see that cool governor sketched 75 on eBay? (Not mine)

[ExcludedTim]

Would have been sweet if it was witnessed and eligible for sig series.

[Phill the Governor]

New art, and the first available Neagan pages, are up at splashpage.

 

I'm happy that the art has begun to get better, and I'm attesting that to the fact the Rick's hair has gotten longer.

[Garf]

eeeee pricey... especially with covers hinting at some nice zombie pages not too far off in the future

[Claudio]

Average price per page is 486.36. Lowest price page is 275.

i, like pretty much anyone else that collects WD knew that the OA pages would be on the rise. i was able to pick up 7 pages from Mark as NYCC. Nothing "awesome" but nothing "horrible" either imo. stuff that i'd long gazed at on his site. Figured it was a "now or never" type of deal as these are all one of a kind.

It was bound to happen. Considering some of the flipping, I think it was time Mark started getting a bit more fair of a deal on the front end.

 

 

[comicsnyc22]

And some of those Negan pages are pretty tempting... Lots of differences between the comic and the art, though. Lots of digital additions happening from Charlie and team.
