RockMyAmadeus Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Not sure why one would expect the Platt run on Moon Knight to catch fire again. The guy abandoned comic books and nothing significant happened during his brief tenure. The last two dealers who bought stuff from me asked about MK 55 in particular. What's driving the interest? No idea, but it's in demand. Perhaps there's a Rule that talks about things becoming collectible again 25 years later. Every. Single. Time. I'm still waiting for Team America #1 to take off In the vein of "once hot, now not", I'm stocking up on Fish Police, and Red Fox, and Elf Lord # 1s Rocket Raccoon.

In all seriousness though, Dark Horse is bringing Mr X back next year with art and story by Dean Motter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I should hold on to those Magic cards that I've been meaning to sell since the '90s for just a few more years? I would. I do know that there are more college kids playing Magic than in previous years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming that wasn't just a joke (since M:tG hasn't exactly been ignored/forgotten since it came out 21 years ago)... if cards (a collection as a whole, individual cards always fluctate) you've had since the 90s have any value now, there's not a very high chance that they will decrease in value over the next few years, but conversely, if they're worthless now, it's highly unlikely that they will increase in value.

Vikingreed Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 I took mine to a tourney Star City Games was attending. Send them a list of your bigger cards prior to meeting up. Paid cash on the spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warlord Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Any idea what's going on with Superman Family #204? Generally the book would bring just a few bucks, but recently copies are fetching $20 and up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warlord Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Aha, it's the death of Meatball per comics.org! comics.org Dunno, the Enchantress angle must be it if nothing else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akaSteveRogers Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 (edited) Pricey Reprint Wow. This just sold for 4x what it was selling for slabbed last year in this grade and more than twice the only recorded GPA sale this year. I know Black Panther is hot but... I guess I can forget about grabbing any early Black Panther books Ive been hunting anytime soon.

kimik Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 This is also entering into the silly Christmas bidding season. Best time of the year to list books as buyers are flush with Xmas gift cash and willing to overpay significantly on books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
