PP 2 cgc 9.8 vs WD 2 cgc 9.8

 

Suply - demand

one book is ten years old and the other a year

 

Did wd #2 have mass production defects as well?

A total of approx 1% of the total print run has been submitted so it's pure speculation that there is a common defect in the 4000+ books yet to be subbed.

I'd hesitate to compare ANYTHING to Walking Dead. The last time I saw anything resembling the WD phenomenon is TMNT. So, what is that - every 20 years or so in Modern Comics, something like this in comics comes along that sweeps up the general public into a pop cultural frenzy, which then translates into those comics rising to and then sustaining 4-figure prices? (Bone is another title where the 1st issue is highly valued, but it's never had the frenzy WD has.)

 

Not saying PP doesn't have the potential. But setting WD-level expectations is likely to lead to disappointment. Also, genre fans (zombies) naturally gravitate to comics and collecting hobbies. Those types of fans I can see spending thousands of dollars on a comic. WW2 fans, not so much. But I'd love to be wrong here! 2c

Man, I completely forgot about the WW2 aspect. That certainly has broader appeal, but I would discount too much the broad appeal of zombies. I dislike horror movies, but I like zombies. Every female that I know likes zombie movies, but I feel I cant say the same for Peter Pan/WW2.

I wasn't trying to argue. I am not sure if wd #2 had the same issues. I'm sure there quite a few PP #2 9.8 raws out there but I'm also certain quite a lot haven't passed pre screen to this point.

It's certainly a tough argument for me as I'm well stocked in WD 1 and PP 1 & up. I do need to see either bubble burst. I do think I will be bailing out on WD this season though, I don't feel the potential is the same as PP.

+1 if you call CGC they will tell you of the hundreds of #2 that did not screen for 9.4 or higher. i know one guy that sent 50 not one 9.8 it is a big defect almost every one i have seen has it

2. Considering demand. Walking dead is huge. However, PP has the potential to be even bigger because it is based on a subject matter that appeals to a broader audience. If the show is quality, and the comic story can draw people in, things will explode. If not then, speculators will be looking to dump those stocks.

 

Not looking to argue, but want to discuss this point. You state "PP has the potential to be even bigger because it is based on a subject matter that appeals to a broader audience." I assume you are talking about it being based on Peter Pan?

 

 

This isn't necessarily aimed only at Mike's Rack, so please anyone chime in: Is Peter Pan really a broader audience than the zombie genre?

its up there PP has huge international potential. if done right this will be huge !

Hard to separate the speculators that have a vested interest in PP succeeding and the enthusiast who just likes the book.

 

See I think there are more speculators then enthusiasts here defending this book.

Own up to being one or the other when defending your arguments. It gives more validity in my opinion.

There is almost nothing I buy (unless it is personalized) that I don't intend to remarket at some point. I couldn't afford to read all I do if other people didn't help support my habit. That doesn't change the fact that I love comics or which comics I prefer. I always buy a lot of what I like the most which I guess goes hand in hand with promoting my speculative books.

 

Why would anybody promote something they didn't have a vested interest in ? Maybe they do it for speculatory reasons or maybe they want to keep reading the story ( like me with WD ). I think most people here have good intentions. They're promoting what they like and possibly speculating to boot.

PP has the potential to be even bigger than Walking Dead. What have you been smokin'? You can't possible think that a subject matter on WW2 & Nazi's is going to appeal to a larger audience.
