joe_collector Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 I think that some events that undeniably happened before copper (such as the ones I listed for instance) have affected the copper age, and some will argue even modern. Wendy and richard pini's Elfquest, Dave Sims Cerebus and Art Spieglman's Maus (dubbed by some the first popular Graphic Novel) made the first popular breakthrough comic books that would inspire creators to publish creator-owned properties Sure, but creator ownership is not a significant part of any one age and it's been around, in one form or another, literally forever. Even Bob Kane had gross profit and licensing rights on Batman through the GA and SA (as did Kirby and Simon for CA, they just never got paid), Robert Crumb did self-publishing of his own creations in the 60's, along with many other Undergrounds, Atlas/Seaboard offered creator ownership of new characters in 1974-75, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

herc2000 Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 I've had that a few times recently, where I'm the second high bidder, then the seller relists it a day or two later, hah. This was one of them. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/321724304148?ssPageName=STRK:MEDWX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1435.l2649 then a day or two later he relisted it with a much bigger buy it now. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/321742600929?ssPageName=STRK:MEDWX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1435.l2649 I made him an offer of my bid, but he sent me back a counter of double, . Same happened other day with another comic, these shill bidders, I mean non paying bidders! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they all evolved into their own separate streams popularized by the industry. Bob Kane is known for Batman which will fall into the DC/Golden age category, Robert Crumb's underground Comix revolution. Sim, the Pini's and Spiegelman are exclusively affiliated with independent comics than anything else. I would add Will Eisner to that list if anything, but that a discussion for another time maybe..

LordRahl Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 I love Iron Fist #14. I love it. That is all. I would too after that price you got on your raw 9.6 last night. What was that? A good 20-25% above what a slabbed 9.6 goes for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chip Cataldo Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 I couldn't believe it. I still can't. Crazy. The buyer was very happy with his win, and that sucker's going out triple-boxed. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

october Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 2 offers on What if #10 within 10 minutes of listing. Might have to let this one ride a few days. Paid $2.00 for it today probably Yeah, you should see what happens. About a year I listed my Marvel Preview 4 on ebay. One guy sent me an offer and then a few minutes later hit the BIN I do that all the time. If I see something that just got listed with a cheap BIN/offer and I am willing to pay full boat, I will throw in an offer to see if it triggers the auto accept. If not, I hit the BIN before someone else can snatch it. Probably looks really strange from the seller 's perspective, but there is a reason for it.

the blob Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 http://www.ebay.com/itm/Marvel-Team-Up-65-HIGH-GRADE-NM-9-6-Spiderman-Mark-Jewelers-Insert-Variant-/381231185191?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item58c3263d27 So what's the deal, are these incredibly rare in MTUs or does Sparkle City have some magic power? This was the highest one, but they were getting $40+ for a bunch of others. I just don't see this sort of premium for other MJI issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparkle City commands more dollars than most comic sellers on eBay. They are kind of like the MCS of eBay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
