jreezy Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 (edited) May is going to be a long month I know seriously. But when and if Saga takes another break again, my wallet would not mind it at all. I'm trying to get all printings and its really tough. I wonder how the prices on the RRP will be during the next hiatus. Edited February 27, 2013 by jreezy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jreezy Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Also, why are the 4th printings of #1 so hard to find? Does anyone here know the actual print run on these ? Going crazy trying to find one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tuff Ghost Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 (edited) Some info for people hunting Fiona Staples down at ECCC http://fionastaples.tumblr.com/post/44163002838/my-eccc-schedule My ECCC Schedule ... I’ll be at Emerald City Comic Con this weekend, at table U-01 with the rest of the Essential Sequential group! We’ll have prints, Saga trades, and my brand new sketchbook “Fiona Staples Digest #1” for sale. I might be away from the table for lunch or to roam the con a bit, so if you have a packed schedule and want to make SURE you get me, best to come by at the times below! Please note that the times at the Image booth will be ticketed signings, so you’ll need to grab a ticket from the Image gang in advance. I’m not taking commissions, but I’ll be doing little head sketches during the LAST HOUR of each day- you can get one for a $20 donation to the Hero Initiative! I’ll have a jar at the table. Throughout the day I’ll be happy to sign anything you have, but if it’s more than 5 items, I ask that you donate $1/item to the Hero Initiative. They do great work and I’m thankful that they’re around to support creators when it’s needed the most. Anyway, here’s my schedule: FRIDAY 3:00 - 3:45 Signing at Image booth (ticketed) 5:00 Panel: Putting the “Graphic” in Graphic Novels It’s time to talk about sex and violence! BLACK KISS II, BUTCHER BAKER, SEX, SAGA, HAPPY, MULTIPLE WARHEADS, SEX CRIMINALS: these comics are definitely not for kids. Image Comics creators who aren’t shying away from adult situations talk about creating comics for grown-ups. Is there really such a thing as “gratuitous”? What’s it like to be banned in the UK and Canada? Join some of comics most respected creators for an eye-opening conversation. 7:00-8:00 Sketching/signing at U-01 SATURDAY Signing at Image booth 2:00 - 2:45 (ticketed) 6:00-7:00 Sketching/signing at U-01 SUNDAY 1:00 Panel: Wondrous Worlds, Fractured Futures: Speculative Fiction and Image Comics With the unlimited potential of comics, there is perhaps no better medium for speculative fiction than comics. Limited only by their imaginations, Image Comics creators have been creating far-flung universes where science, fantasy, and technology explode in rich possibilities. Find out why they choose science fiction, how they build worlds, and what inspires them. 3:00 - 3:45 Signing at Image booth (ticketed) 4:00-5:00 Sketching/signing at U-01 Edited February 27, 2013 by Tuff Ghost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mg1902 Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 To get through May I'll be writing some Saga fan fiction. If anyone would like a variant of it let me know and I'll hook it up. Also PM me for my Fan Fiction RRP - it will be limited to 5 copies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

comicsnyc22 Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 There was some discussion earlier on how much Saga RRPs would be selling for post C2E2. Here are the copies that I have seen sell today on ebay: $40 $75 $80 $80 $95 (although it clearly had significant bending on the backside of the comic) $125 $150 Looks like it pays to be patient.

Wushugushu Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Will this happen again with the next new series in the same tier that has a RRP? Or will they just start out 200-300+? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering people are paying crazy prices for the nowhere men variants right of the gate. That depends on the series, Nowhere Men blew up right out of the gate, if Clone had an RRP it might be a $20+ book but not much more as it has stayed under most peoples radars.
