gaz973 Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 I thought Psylocke was first featured on the second series of the Captain Britain magazine… No, definitely the 1st series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logan510 Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 I just finished reading the full run of Ms Marvel for the first time. After the first couple or so issues when Chris Claremont took over the writing, it turned into a pretty decent book. The price for that #1 is....

vaillant Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 From what I remember, it was a good book since the beginning (you can’t go wrong with Gerry Conway). Maybe at the beginning it was somewhat "formulaic" (Carol working with JJ Jameson, the Spider-Man supporting cast), but so was Nova. They are good stuff nonetheless. The prices… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The prices… I generally like Conway, but maybe you need to go look at those first few issues again Once Claremont came aboard the quality made a huge jump.

vaillant Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 (edited) Surely I may have a biased perception, but generally I have my fond memories confirmed as I re-read: what I disliked as a kid is pretty bad, what I liked in general is quality material. But I agree, as I said, the first issues, unlike it has been for Spider-Woman, felt pretty much as they followed a tried and tested formula. Inversely, I do think Claremont didn’t get into Spider-Woman as he did with Ms. Marvel. Again, also the first issues of Nova were somewhat "dull", but then it rocked. I still think Infantino was awesome in the later issues, although I understand many bronze readers don’t like its latter style.

ZaCrew Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Iron Man 55 http://www.ebay.com/itm/251250091257?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649&autorefresh=true#ht_366wt_1428 The grade assigned is too high, but I am sure most of the buyers are savvy enough to know it's really an 8.5 Still a strong number.

zekebarrett Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 Whetton, Why didn't you tell us you were in trouble with eBay?? Looks like Lyria Comic Exchange is being shut down!! http://www.lyriacomicexchange.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=1611 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Pontoon Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 How exactly does Lyria obtain information on the total amount of watchers? Isn't that info only available to the seller of the auction? Are the books in the "Most Watched" section of Lyria pulled from every comic listing on ebay or more selectively from a smaller pool of data?

Are the books in the "Most Watched" section of Lyria pulled from every comic listing on ebay or more selectively from a smaller pool of data? I am only given what eBay api allows. There is one api call that lets me see the number of watchers on auctions in a particular category. The books in the "Most Watched" section are pulled based on the category that is selected. So if you select the "All Ages" category than it will be of all comics in any age. If you select the "Modern Age" category than it will only be a listing of the most watched modern age comics.

That’s not what I meant. Let’s say I’m selling a Bronze item with 55 views and 18 watchers. If you are sampling every comic listed on ebay in the Bronze age to obtain your data, shouldn't my item be in your Bronze Most Watched list?

Due to the way I have to filter results thanks to eBay's api I'm forced to look for raw books that have NM in the title. That's an unfortunate side effect. So if you have enough watchers to be in the top 25 and NM in the title than yes. Edited April 3, 2013 by whetteon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
