VintageComics Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 Excellent. Please let them do Kingdom Come with Peter Jackson at the helm since the battle scene at the end would match what he had to do with LOTR's big fight scenes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimik Posted March 22, 2010 Author Share Posted March 22, 2010 So, now that the first couple of shows have passed this spring can anyone comment on what the market is like for SC #22? Still high demand with collectors asking for it, or has it lost a lot of steam? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
showcase22gr1959 Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 (edited) So, now that the first couple of shows have passed this spring can anyone comment on what the market is like for SC #22? Still high demand with collectors asking for it, or has it lost a lot of steam? On Ebay, when SC22 is priced right, they sell quickly. In the open market, most copies offered has been under 5.0. With the last two 5.0/5.5 Heritage copy doing well, the demand is there for mid to high grade copies. The Green Lantern movie is planning to begin filming April and let's hope everything will go right. Demand for GL1 has spiked, since it is more affordable than SC22. Since Showcase 22 is more scarce than AF15, SC22 price is stable and holding. Below are some fun facts. Showcase 22 scarce=6.0+ uncommon=4.0-5.0 common=1.0-3.5 on the CGC census (universal grade) white pages=extremly rare (only two exist) off-white to white pages=rare (estimated 5-10) Edited March 22, 2010 by showcase22gr1959 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kimik Posted March 22, 2010 Author Share Posted March 22, 2010 Let's hope this 3.5 hits that ask price. FWIW, I will be pricing my 4.0 at $2,000 and my 2.0 at $800 for the local spring shows. Last year someone bought a 1.5 copy of Adventure #247 for $1,000, so hopefully they are looking for a SC #22. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's 3.5-4.5, it will cost you $1200-2200, and for copies 5.0+ it will start at $3K. You can check a few pages back on this thread for price sales.

dikran Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 Hey guys im kinda new here and was looking for my own copy of SC#22 and was wandering if anyone had any tips on where to get one for a reasonable price. thanks Lotsa places online, ComicLink has huge auctions almost monthly and you can check the marketplace for SC22 regularly. Heritage Auctions, eBay, Pedigree comics (mostly Marvels tho), Worldwide comics, ComicConnect. Check out local conventions or shows where you can haggle a little more (my preference). Also you can check the for sale threads on the Boards here, you never know when one of the SC22s in this thread might show up... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
