Late on this but the spec cycle has a couple waves... The initial announcement sets the new price FLOOR, not ceiling. Then the trailers cause another boost provided they're not terrible. Finally, if the project is successful, the release will cause another boost but this is a gamble. A bad movie can kill values too(See: X-Men #101 after the Phoenix movie and X-Factor #6 after the underwhelming Apocalypse feature). So as crazy as it seems we haven't necessarily seen the peak of say, ASM #300 or ASM #361. If Venom 2 is more well-received than Venom 1 those books will keep rising as crazy as that sounds. Just imagine millions of people see the movie and even half of a percentage of them decide they want a copy of ASM 300 or ASM 361 after seeing the movie... that's a TON of new buyers even though those aren't uncommon books. That's basically the same thing we saw with WandaVision, what we're seeing with Godzilla, and what we will see with Loki and this fall's comic movies IF THEY'RE GOOD. Last caveat carries lots of risk for speculators grebal 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MisterX Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 Thanks. I guess I'm having trouble seeing Pip bring anything unique to the table after Rocket. They'd have to cast a seriously charismatic actor, I think. Warwick Davis could have some fun with the part, I suspect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LDarkseid1 Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 No idea why because there's been no special updates to justify it that I know of, but it seems Shazam 28, 1st Bronze Age Black Adam has suddenly gone on a big jump. Just honestly no clue why. I mean yes the movie is around the corner, but just don't understand why suddenly now it would go up like this. Unless youtubers like ComicTom have put out videos promoting it that I don't know of, pushing the machine forward aka, people buying up copies.

At the price the last 9.8 sold, you could buy a fairly nice copy of Marvel Family 1 Frank.Einstein, PeterPark and JTLarsen 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I'd rather have the nice MF 1 then Shazam 28 in a 9.8 haha. But yeah I mean just to give an example, a 9.6 was stuck at $830 best offer for a while on ebay and suddenly that was bought up at the ask price. Since that sale about two weeks ago or so, two 9.6's have sold for $1300 and $1500. So just insane! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the new trend, once a big sale is finalized and recorded on GPA, all lower grades that were BIN on eBay get repriced almost instantly. The last sale of the 9.8 was 5900$ (!!!!) just about 2 weeks ago, so I'm sure that's what sparked the repricing. LDarkseid1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Callaway29 Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 Just now, dikran1 said: At the price the last 9.8 sold, you could buy a fairly nice copy of Marvel Family 1 I was just about to say, Marvel Family #1 isn't getting the same treatment. Or maybe it has/is and we just don't know it yet. Only sales this year are a couple 0.5's for $2K & $2.5K. That's a strong per point price, but 0.5's aren't the best comps either. It's tough with scarce books because there are so few comps. I'd say it was on average a $1K/point book coming into the recent hysteria...where it is now? Who knows...but the next hammer of a good comp is going to set the market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dinklage is such a good actor. 11 minutes ago, LDarkseid1 said: Yeah I'm not sure what the last 9.8 went for because it wasn't during what I'm talking about is happening right now.

It's definitely not a book that comes up for sale often, thus why mortals, like myself, flock to Shazam 28. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No I mean I don't disagree, but it was just the timing. I feel like when this madness happens it's still generally tied to something or some kind of announcement, and I can't point to anything. But maybe not, maybe a book is just chosen these days and boop, the machine does it's thing and suddenly the rise happens lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
