littledoom Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 (edited) And just like that Avengers 232 is a $40 book. A few weeks ago I debated but eventually put back a $2 copy at last estate sale I was at. It's hard to buy junk. Seems like all those fringe books I pass on end up becoming something. I always ignored that whimsical looking character Edited October 19, 2021 by littledoom fastballspecial 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always ignored that whimsical looking character over 50 copies sold on ebay in the last 12 hours or so. Posted my 9.8 this afternoon to see if I get any takers.

People obviously don't know that Avengers #232 was from a very low period in the title's history. One of the many comics that were practically worthless, and will be again once the dust has settled. Iron Man #55 is the better buy. HighVoltage and littledoom 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm speculating, but I believe at least some of the craze is due to the fact that younger readers simply don't know the history. Therefore, they can't tell diamond from zircon.

Avengers 80? Probably should throw in Bloodstone, The Mummy, Mordred, Tigra, Nomad, and The Golem. Brother Voodoo has already jumped the shark.
