Jimmy Linguini Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 The only piece of Saga OA in existence. I'd hold it for a while. At least till #13 comes out and prices go back up. . If I were going to sell it, I would sell it while it's still 'the only piece of Saga OA in existence.' That's its main selling point, since it's not on the same level as any of Fiona's covers, IMO (no offense, Jimmy - nice score landing it). So theres another variant for Saga that has been announced? I don't already have links to it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperBird Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 Any Paul Pope piece is amazing. The fact that's it's Saga is secondary! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy Linguini Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 Yeah, I'd probably trade the Paul Pope Saga Cover for the J G Jones cover to Y the Last Man #1 ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THE LAUGHING M4N Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 I'd say keep it unless you get a ridiculous offer. I set a few highs of the RRP prices and as much I'd love to own some OA from the series and a cover I really enjoy, the fact it's the only OA isn't a draw for me, particularly as it isn't by Fiona Staples. Nor do I see it to command such a high price on the open market for those very reasons unless people got into a frenzy and went silly. If another piece of OA for Saga appears down the line, one of the potential attractions (for some people) disappears. I know what I'd pay for it and it certainly wouldn't be 10K for 4-5K I'd expect the artist to be someone always in demand and very mainstream, e.g. Jim Lee, JSC. So I'd keep it, or trade for some key books which will always hold their value and appeal Congrats on the purchase though (thumbs u Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
