I think its safe to say when any modern book sells almost 100,000 copies that that qauntifies as a sell out lol. If you look at the numbers of modern teprited books maybe you would not assume this "conspiracy theory" of yours.. its not good to throw acusations and false facts to the community.

The number of copies that are sold of a book is only relevant in respect to the number that are available. If 1,000,000 are available and 100,000 are actually sold, not a sell out.

Yes i am old as well so i understand you perfectly. thing is the hobby and investment side changes with time. some people want what not all others have. 2nd and 3rd prints are not what they were many years ago. They are made when a book sells out at Diamond dist. so rite away they produce another print to compansate for the high demand. Back in the day thete were so many copies produced that damand did not exceed supply. this is why for example. Demon #1..a hot book atm is readily available in anywhere. Never a need for another print.

 

Also, consider this, some publishers plan their reprints. It is part of their marketing strategy so they can declare a book was a sell out. In fact, the interior of those reprints are printed along with the first prints.

 

Why would they plan a 2nd print before it sells out? Do you have an example of this? Any proof?

Around the time of Civil War, Marvel started generating additional sales by cutting back on the number of books printed over the initial orders. That meant that in some cases, a second print was needed to fill reorders. Since they were putting new covers on the reprints, many collectors grabbed those as well, which served to sell more total copies of the book, while minimizing the risk of unsold copies. It's been speculated that some Valiant books were handled this way (maybe some other small publishers as well, as they tend to rely on the sales of variants to sustain the business moreso than the big 2).

You're missing the point. Or rather, proving mine, if you're saying that those books sold a boatload of copies and didn't sell out. Even though you're wrong in the case of Spider-man, which did have a second printing.

I think it will say something like Captain Marvel #17 2nd print where it says first appearance on cover and predates Howard the Duck #1 appearance. Just my 2 cents FWIW.

I agree with you but I think the examples are slightly different. Captain Marvel #17 was a 2nd print and a 2nd appearance. This book had her on the cover, its her 1st appearance, and was titled Gwenpool. 2c

I'm going to say..umm...Gwen-pool is not Spider-gwen. It may be gwen but so? She been around forever. If its a question of 1st "spider-gwen" it would be just that. not gwen-pool who is a parody character for a odd ball character..but it is not "spider- gwen.
