jra1985 Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 What do you guys think about Batman Family #6? I picked up a FN copy for $2. The new 52 relaunch in Catwoman 23 has this one heating up I think. What kind of potential do you think it has long term? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyclops Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 What do you guys think about Batman Family #6? I picked up a FN copy for $2. The new 52 relaunch in Catwoman 23 has this one heating up I think. What kind of potential do you think it has long term? I'm optimistic about Batman Family #6. Joker's Daughter is getting her own one-shot in Feb and I wouldn't be surprised if JD is here to stay in the New 52 universe. Will it go on to become a Batman Adventures #12? Maybe not. Can't go wrong at $2 either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fastballspecial Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 ST 180 is really gaining steam from the last couple of sales. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe_collector Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 The more things change, the more they remain the same - I can remember every year or so, someone brings up "Joker's Daughter", "Batman Family 6" and "sure to be a hot investment" but it never pans out.

joe_collector Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 ST 180 is really gaining steam from the last couple of sales. I really should look through my collection to see how many extras I have laying around. For a few years there I was buying up every Starlin Warlock?Captain Marvel HG issue I could get my hands on.

joe_collector Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 How is Amazing Spider-Man #121, 122, OR 129 not on that list?! Even Green Lantern 76 The latest Amazing Spider-man movie sucked, the Punisher movies all sucked, and GL/GA 76 jumped the shark a long time ago.

I sold my copy for $25 in VG/F a few weeks back. I dont think your book is high enough grade to hold if you can pull $20+ for I would take it.

sonicyouth Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 (edited) Marvel Premiere CGC 9.2 currently @ $530 & 48 watchers. I knew this book was heating up but DAMMMmmmm! I wanted a laugh, so I just looked at the census. Not exactly rare in higher grades. Neither is Hulk #181. What's your point? Wolverine is a slightly more popular character than Iron Fist, but who knows, maybe he will launch into stardom and kids will dress up like him for Halloween next year. All I know right now is that the supply is not meeting the demand and thus the prices are increasing. So is the amount of auction watchers and bid activity. This makes me think there's really demand but why I don't know. I think someone said something about a TV series? Did I read that somewhere or am I making that up? No, I doubt kids will dress up as him for Halloween but I don't think kids are buying these books at $500 a pop for 9.2's And just a side note, I'm not taking offense, just stating my opinion. Sometimes text makes it hard to understand the tone of the conversation. (thumbs u No offense taken (thumbs u . I actually read it as a normal conversation. There is clearly huge demand for the book right now. I think it is the Netflix series for defenders but it is not the real defenders? Right now there are several very common bronze books with skyrocketing market prices, and I think for the vast majority of them the person caught holding the bag is going to be very unhappy. This is a trend for the next year or two as speculators(new buyers in the market this year .... guessing ex card dealers) are buying up a lot of 1st appearances driving up the market due to TV shows. Heck if I had a nice copy it would be up for sale currently. The trick for these buyers is to convince others the books will continue to rise. Id be selling like a fiend right now if I had 9.4 or higher in these books. The true irony of the matter is when the market saturates due the large amount of these books in high grade. They will get stuck holding the bag. Their trick is to buy cheap and flip fast. Some will pull it off easily while others wont. We will only hear about the successes. Well said! I'd also like to point out that I don't think its ex card dealers. Its in fact comic dealers in a large scale and a minority of comic book fans/collectors. collectors/readers such as myself are only driving up some of the initial demand because we know what is good but don't have the time, money, or space to invest nor do we want to.. hording is for the dealers because they know how to operate through the major headaches .. comic book/card dealers are pretty much one in the same Spoilers: as for hot books: Captain America 117 -wow, bought mine for $12 last year a fine! Falcon is also confirmed for Avengers 2. as soon as Taskmaster gets confirmed for Antman expect some jumps on Avengers 196. also Days of Future Past seems to be generating the most fanboy and movie buzz so if its in any way decent like X2, all the bronze X-books will be super hot again! Strange Tales 180- like the previous discussion illustrates! wtf??? crazy... Edited January 5, 2014 by sonicyouth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

comicartfan Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 Start hoarding those Star Wars 42 and 68 issues.

Boba Fett only appears in a panel or two in a flashback sequence in Star War 68. Marvel Star Wars 81 is a much more significant appearance.

joe_collector Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 Star Wars 42 is a reprint. I always wondered what it was a reprint of. Was there an ESB edition that preceeded it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ft88 Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 (edited) I believe this did (Spring 1980) with Star Wars 42 Dec 1980. And there's a UK weekly I believe preceded the MSS. Edited January 6, 2014 by ft88 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe_collector Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 That's what I thought, but I couldn't remember it for sure. But regardless of it being a reprint of the MSS magazine, Star Wars 42 is still desirable because it has Boba Fett on the cover, and is the first comic book appearance. In a CGC world, having the character on the cover really matters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Treasuries can't be CGC'd but does that hurt or help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
