When will/will the WALKING DEAD bubble burst?
7 7

3,607 posts in this topic

I don't think that is the reason this thread exists.

 

It exists because the comic had a meteoric spike in value and it's a viable question to ask when or if the bubble will burst.

 

Resentment isn't in the equation as far as I can see. I'm a WD #1 owner also.

 

I see no harm in asking the question.

 

 

When I started this thread GPA on non-key issues in 9.8 were higher. The keys have had some muted appreciation, except no 1 which has grown well.

 

The question is still relevant. Though if you read the whole thread a majority of new posts are just reiterating points that have already been made several times.

To retaliate, what about DC's "Faster Friends?" Another comic shown on LOST. I was selling sets of those two for $25-$35 at the height of the show. Where are they now?

 

Just for comparison.

 

;)

 

Excellent point. I offer this as a response. Mystery Tales 40 seems to share more of the show's premise than Faster Friends. Mystery Tales features the Hidden Land and the guy is on an airplane. The Spanish version of Faster Friends was just a book that Hurley read. Mystery Tales had more of a mystique about it once Richard presented it to John Locke as a child hinting that the comic book itself had a connection to John's role on the island.

 

Yes, I want my Mystery Tales 40.

 

:applause:

 

I wish more exchanges could be this civil.

 

Well done, sir!

I stopped watching mid way through season three. It was a horrible show, so many unresolved issues in order to promote intrigue and mystery. Anyone can just insert random strange spoon into a story and then fail to explain it to give an impression of mystery, that is bad/lazy writing. Good writers promote mystery by selectively editing a -script and having the mysteries as logical but not predictable result of the plot.

While some things were admittedly not resolved with clarity I felt that the majority of things were. There were some things that I did not need to explicitly know as they were unimportant to the plot. I have watched the entire series it a few times and it gets better with each viewing.

I second that. The show is brilliant! Character development is insane, I think more so than the comic, its like a modern day X-men!

 

Too many unresolved issues? you mean the part that the show is called "walking Dead" made sense to you to begin with? .. Come on, it's still fiction, only better than 99% of the cr*p on TV, WAY better!

If they ever make zombie porn, you'll see WD hit 4K. :wink:

 

:popcorn:

 

 

Jenna Jameson made a movie called Zombie Strippers.

 

That's probably what caused the start of the spike.

Personally I think prices will come down eventually. Its just the when and by how much.

 

Jenna Jameson's prices must have come down a lot. Have you seen her lately?

 

lol

Status on this book has been earned through it's development of different forms of media that has multiplied it's fan base. It is light years past hype/fad. Owning a copy of #1 in cgc 9.8 is wise cause the book is blue chip. Replacing one for less after selling one is for the highly skilled or the lucky.
