I knew that Marvel’s Godzilla books were doing well, but I was just just doing some eBay listings, and I didn’t realize how well Godzilla #23 was doing. It’s a late, (supposedly) low print issue, which feature a battle between Godzilla and the Avengers.

23 did spike In Feb-March, but in April a multi-year low. Conversely there's the all-time high for #22 ? Prices on Godzilla are simply all over the map as new registry collectors (or hopefuls) have jumped on the bandwagon due to the recent film(s).  Not the recipe for growth that will hold. Too bad as I've multiple 23's in 9.8 but I never ever sell Comics anyway.

P.S. Props to @Xenosmilus who posted the above in the Godzilla thread.

That 9.8 was a steal. I was getting $50-60 for #23 raw in 2021.

#22,23,24 Population Comparisons

#22 has increased the least, both in # of 9.8 as well as percentage.   #23 population now may be satisfying demand?  Time will tell...

Surely possible. But there were 2 sales in 2023, $335 & $255. So a big drop each time a sale is made. Doesn't seem like one to auction at this time.

There’s been 4 Godzilla related major media productions in the past year so Godzilla related items are hot
