thanx...but why him in particular? If this were a Wildstorm book, maybe, but why would they go in that direction...and anyway, wasnt he referred to (and shown) earlier as one of the surviving three? ..or at least Millar's version of him?

Yep, I was hooke after issue 1 myself, good stuff! Sold out at my spot also BTW. I did get a copy of the "B" & "C" covers though, last Silvestri cover on the shelf.

Picked up a copy of the second issue at my store today based upon the recommendations here. Hope that it's a good read. Also picked up one of the #1 issues from the store.

 

Is there a difference in the value since there were four different cover versions available?

The floodgates have opened! Specs are rushing the stores! IT'S BEDLAM IN MY LOCAL 1,000,000 COMIX!!!!!!!! Ebay is so oversaturated with people rushing to buy these books that their mighty, mighty servers have crashed! Panic in the streets! Dogs and cats, living together! Mass hysteria!

 

 

 

 

Anybody want to buy a set? hi.gif

 

I just managed to penetrate ebay and snag my set at a moment when their mighty servers were teetering on total collapse. It's a sign from the gods.....I'm one step closer to retiring on comics by the age of 30. Financial freedom!!

I have to pass on any book with alternate covers just on principle. I may miss some good books this way, but I feel good about it. thumbsup2.gif

 

That only leaves about 2 titles per month left to buy.

 

Can't you just buy 1 cover, enjoy the comic, and pretend the variants don't exist? confused.gif

NO, you FOOL!!!! I'm sending them to CGC at a MINTY 9.9 prescreen, so that I can sell them and buy myself a bungalow. Or I'll hold them for 5 years and buy myself a Yacht. Comic values are perpetually rising! Didn't you know! For God's sake MK, get a clue!

You, my friend, are a true gambler.

 

For this, I sing you the following song (as seems to be my style of late):

 

"You got to know when to hold 'em, know how not to fold 'em

Know when to walk 'em through, know when to ship UPS.

You never crack your cases when you're sittin' on a neaaar mint

There'll be time enough for readin', when the flippin's done

 

Now, every 'collector' knows, the secret to survivin'

Is knowing what to throw away, knowing what to keep

'Cause every 9.8's a winner and every 8.5's a loser

And the best you can hope for is the next '30 Days of Night'..."

They did go pretty fast at the mainstream shops,...only cause they tend to order just three or four copies of indie books,....I have a shop near me that's on a college campus where indie stuff is practically all they sell....they still had 10 copies,....but they were all bashed up on the bottom...cept for the three I snagged......
