Moderns that are heating up on ebay! 71 71

[RockMyAmadeus]

I just changed my mind about what I'm going to eat for dinner. True story.

 

Admit it. It was the Bobo Feet discussion, wasn't it...?

[RockMyAmadeus]

Will this comic ever sell for more than the first appearance of Boba Fett in comics? Should it? That right there limits the long term upside IMHO.

Isn't the upside limit at least slightly related to the value of an original Boba Fett action figure?

 

It's a comic, no doubt... but this particular one is referencing the action figure.

There are lots of other Boba Fett modern variants that are just cool Boba Fett art.

 

I wouldn't think so, but I've been wrong before.

 

Outside of the decoration that looks like the original Kenner action figure packaging, does this cover really invoke the coolness of the original Boba Fett action figure packaging? Honestly, the original Boba Fett action figure packaging would make a better comic cover than this one and the art is infinitely cooler. This is just a picture of Boba Fett's head and a drawing of the action figure.

I think it's a sweet cover to add to all the other Action figure variants. It looks semi-vintage with a modern twist. For $20 for only 5000 made, is worth every cent to me. It'll go great right next to my Luke AF variant 9.8

 

Star Wars 4 Life!! \m/ \m/

 

The look is definitely very cool, and once they're done, I would be interested in getting a slabbed 9.8 SS run of them. That would be cool.

[RockMyAmadeus]

Personally, I wish they'd bring back more of the sparkly variants of the 90's.

 

Those were pretty cool and shiny, at least.

 

If I had done acid, the cover to Wildcats #2 would probably have blown my mind.

 

 

I did. It didn't. (thumbs u

 

You know, that does go a long way towards explaining things...

 

[Gunnz]

 

You're still a dope.

 

 

+4

 

When you've known the guy for 13+ years, you might have the right.

 

Until then...

 

 

Fair enough. -4.

I hope they go with the originally named "Death Squad Commander" instead of the later "Star Destroyer Commander". Also, the vinyl cape Jawa

They could even do a Revenge one....

You people are trying to instill LOGIC in the hobby of speculating on comics.

 

Maybe it's just fun to speculate on stuff

 

When you live through a crash that brought Marvel within a single judge's decision of ceasing publication altogether...you tend to be a little down on the "let's just treat comics like the Franklin Mint/Stock Market!" mentality.

 

Speculation on new comic books hurts the hobby, hurts collectors, and most importantly, hurts the very creators who make the comics.

 

"What? How does speculating on new books hurt anybody but the speculators?"

 

I don't have the time, or desire, to document for the 53rd time the myriad ways that this is true. It is written all over this board, in many places, already, just waiting to be found.

 

When people are buying new comic books just to "see how much money they can make", and have zero connection to the artform itself, they will, like locusts, do massive damage and, when there's no more money to be made, will move on to the next "hot thing", caring not a damn for the artform or the carnage they've inflicted.

 

This place has become clogged with such people in the last five years, and to those of you that this applies, I only say this: read a damn book, will you?

 

 

 

Not sure why you would come to a thread titled "Moderns that are heating up on EBAY" and slam others, for their actions, then again don't know why you'd be reading it at all. Finally why are you on the CGC boards at all , nasty thing... that slabbing a book thing

 

You speak without knowledge. Such practice invariably leads to conflict.

 

To address your specific claim: no one was "slammed." Did you read what I wrote...? If you did, did you understand what I wrote....?

 

 

 

Maybe I didn't understand then. I was understanding that you were comparing anyone that buys a new book to flip to a locust. And that the last five years there were more locusts appearing in a thread titled "moderns that are heating up on Ebay"

Correct.

Not correct. Not all moderns are new books, though all new books are moderns.

Anyway beware the locusts
