Snotgirl just looks stupid...not that it matters in the grand scheme, but I don't ever see a tv show being made about a girl who has a runny nose.

 

I'm sure they said the same thing about Rocket Racoon before GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY was huge hit.

we're talking about snot, I can handle a talking Racoon..I grew up on Ranger Rick. I didn't like the dancing doodie on South Park either.

Since the dust is settling a bit now, which books do you guys think were the big winners from SDCC?

 

 

Dark Horse is the big winner. Briggs Land ( AMC TV show ? ) and Black Hammer are rocking the secondary market. Especially when taking into account the initial cost of each. Hoping that Black Hammer is ongoing. It grabbed me in the same way Invincible did the first time I read it.

 

Black Mask are masters of marketing. They are far from being the next Image. Monstress as a title has almost as many completed sales as the entire Black Mask line on ebay. Take out variants and Monstress wins. Thats 1 Image title vs an entire line. BM is more comparable to Enormous on certain titles. Small audiences with even smaller print runs. The marketing is exceptional. Take a book that say 100-150 people might want, make 66 copies, and voila. Short printed books that bring money and get all of our favorite spec sites and bloggers noticing. Its brilliant and I hope it works for them.

 

Rebirth Foil covers ROCK :headbang:

 

IDW has a couple of sleepers on hand with Rom and Archangel foil. I'm not certain how big their audiences are but the print runs are small and Rom is being integrated into his 2nd very popular universe. that should stand out to people.

 

The Marvel Cho variants are pretty cool. The only concern here is that there are a LOT of CWII variants. If CWII has a big cover, it will be these or the Noto's imo. Other Marvel stuff was just okay.

 

Image nailed it for Negan fans (I'm not one of them) and prices are good for Horizon, which I haven't read yet, and Snotgirl, which I jumped off the bandwagon as of issue #1. You'd be better off putting any money you had set aside for Snotgirl and buy something like Monstress #1 with it imo.

 

I'm sure I missed lots of stuff but these were all of the books I watched since Wednesday.

 

 

 

Can someone with the rebirth foils in hand, confirm the condition of these books. I was told by a pretty reliable source that the print run on these was terrible and HQ is going to be very difficult with these?

seems like an entirely probable premise for a show on the CW network.

This new generation has the attention span of a mayfly on acid. Once something gains a little momentum, the focus moves to something even more outrageous, and usually more stupid

WD 100 is not even selling well.

 

I'm sure that will change come late October.

 

Had a coworker who has the Chrome variant and was pretty disappointed to learn it wasn't worth more than $100.
