Moderns that are heating up on ebay! 71 71

Preacher is scorching right now, especially the key issues - 1, 2, 13, Alamo arc and final issue 66. Issue 13 first Herr Starr is closing on the $100.00 mark on average and the last issue has been closing between 25.00 and 50.00 consistently on the Bay.

 

yeah, that's about right, the only issues I couldn't find.

 

Wow - 66 does seem to have taken a jump. I think I stockpiled 8 copies that are in one of these boxes. Thanks for the heads up.

 

I think that Divad was the first one to pop the cherry on this one before it was popular to pump n dump. Congrats Divad

Jay,

Not surprisingly, you've got it backwards again . . . retcons work the other way around. What you're calling a retcon is actually "inspiration".

Thank you, thank you, I think I popped the cherry on both P66 and W80. (with all credit to discussion here.)

[thecopperagekids]

Yeah, I remember you getting $66.66 + priority shipping for a 9.8 raw Preacher 66.

 

My chest swells with pride, my good man....

 

I just checked GPA on the last few sales of Preacher 1 in 9.8....and the book has broke a g-bal, not once but 3 times, this week....with one sale at $1215.Hell yeah, son.

 

All were universal copies, not SS copies.

Because of the X-23 movie "rumor" and X-Men: Apocalypse post-credit scene, Wolverine #80 is gaining traction:

thats a garbage book, nyx 3 is the book to own.

 

Its the X-men 201 argument. It will hold a value. It will be around a $20 book for awhile maybe even bump a little higher as NYX 3 keeps climbing.

 

 

I am not sure this is a Retcon. To date I have not heard a definitive answer concerning this comic and if Marvel has ever explained. I have a vague memory of Wizard discussing the book but beyond that who knows. People like to discount the importance of this comic and yes no one should ever try and sell it as the first appearance of X-23 but it sure seems like a key book to me.

 

As far as Earp, it's on the wrong channel. Put it on AMC and see what happens.

 

...except if a person actually read Wolverine 80 and is familiar with Laura's actual origin (of her creation) , they would know that the "X-23" on that test tube is just a coincidence and has nothing to do with her.

 

-J.

 

Yeah but no, cause if you JUST read the comics you'd have missed the interview with Craig Kyle and Christopher Yost where they talked about coming up with x-23. They where apparently sitting around talking when: 'hey whatever happened to that test tube marked x-23.." The idea that this is a coincidence is pretty hard to fathom, I think...I mean that nothing else happened with that test tube, and that it has the exact same name... wish I could find that article again....

 

 

I should have included that as well. When or if we see her origin will either dispel it or add to it. At the time when I read it I thought it was a plant for a later story.

 

Yeah, right.

 

 

Except .....

 

It completely ignores facts established in her origin book:

a) Her name has NOTHING to do with a sample name. It specifically refers to the fact she’s the 23rd attempt to create a female clone (“X” refers to X-CHROMOSOME, NOT the Weapon X project).

b) The sample she was created from was recovered by Dale Rice during Logan’s escape from Weapon X. Sutter recovered it from his corpse immediately after. There’s no evidence that Dr. Munoz was ever involved with the Facility, or that it ever passed through her hands.

 

"X-23" on the that test tube is a coincidence and has nothing to do with Laura Kinney.

 

-J.

Even if the two stories have nothing to do with one another, there's a very slim chance it's entirely a coincidence.

I'm going to need those copies back that I sold you last year.

That's right I did buy 4 copies from you at the Harper show. At least I paid your $6 asking price!

If only there was some way to gather the information and consider the value of the sources and the value of the information before making my decisions and weigh them against my own concerns, preferences, and strategies before purchasing....

 

There's a good chance the guy who wrote the Tron article simply likes to write about comics and was looking for a category of books no one else had touched on. The guys over there probably aren't getting paid for writing articles. Yes there is a chance that some writer is loading up and trying to manipulate that market but is it really worth the effort to flip some Tron books that likely aren't going to set the world on fire? Yes I understand CBSI stands for speculating and investing but to those here who say it's a bunch of people pumping and dumping then you haven't really taken a look at the work. There are articles there posted regularly that have nothing to do with speculation. Until you can PROVE that a guy is trying to generate interest to unload his stockpile then I don't see the point in bringing up that argument. I see it here all the time and without proof it just seems like another way to try and denigrate a competitive arena for discussing comics.

 

The writer of that article admitted in the past to contacting ebay sellers after completed sales and offering more money for books that had already been sold, telling the seller to cancel the original sale to cut out the original buyer. CBSI isn't all bad but it has its share of trash just like this place.

Nobody here complained when CBSI ran a Dell'Otto spec article & checklist which helped all of the variant prices go up

 

 

Sure they did. Read the Dell'otto thread. Apparently Dell'Otto isn't the same artist he was a few months ago looking at prices. Wonder where all those true fans went.

What I meant was that people here flipping Dell'Ottos after the price explosion weren't complaining

[Iceman399]

Can someone hype up Legends of the Dark knight...any of the colours I won't mind...maybe go with the yellow cover...they are pretty bright.

If we know, then how come this particular book at auction is no where to be found before my post? This is the only blue label 9.8 on the census. I would imagine most collectors that have held onto this book would be interested in this auction and the sale price.

 

As Forrest Gump would say, "Sorry I ruined your Black Panther party".

[ygogolak]

Anybody look at Gambit #1 Gold lately? Raws seem to be selling at a healthy price even with the news of the movie being shelved.

$10 books went up to $300 books seemingly overnight. Some of those books have since retreated to more sustainable levels (Original Sin #2 and 7), some have held steady (Winter Soldier #1), and a couple have continued to rise (X-23 #1, Avengers Assemble #10).

 

All par for the course.
