Crazy that X-Force 2 is going up in price, maybe people are settling for the 2nd Deadpool appearance since NM 98 is getting pricey.

 

I wonder if X-Force #11 is going to take off too. That has a plus of also having the first Domino. I haven't been able to find that one locally at all. Methinks speculators are buying them up.

 

Oddly, Rob Liefeld tweeted that Domino's first appearance was New Mutants #98. Wikipedia says #11.

 

Does Rob know that copycat was playing Domino in NM 98? Was that -script rewritten? hm

 

How does someone who has never been seen before get impersonated first? hm

 

Good point! hm

 

Retcon, not the first time it's been done.

Time to pull my copies of 2 and 11 and burn the rest of the run :banana:

 

Why would you burn them? X-Force showcased the best in belt pouch fashion. :insane:

 

But yeah, I look at my X-Forces and think what the hell was I thinking. Thankfully I didn't buy a long box of X-Force #1.

 

I think there's some Apocalypse origin material in #37, but it might take another decade before anyone cares.

Right now there is great $$$ to be made from CA books since you can snag collections for so cheap. I am curious to see how things end, but this reminds me a lot of the action on BA books from 2003 - 2005 (maybe starting a bit earlier).

 

Snagging collections "for cheap" depends entirely on where you are. Maybe in Canada, but here in SoCal, it's simply not possible.

 

 

So true, up here I can throw a dead cat and hit high grade collections all day long. I was in California this summer and traveled up and down the coast and there was nothing but garbage to pick at. Mind you, my trip wasn't about finding comics, it was to relax so maybe there is stuff out there but the shops carried rags for back issues and everything was priced the highest I've ever seen.

 

Interesting. We are fortunate here then with Copper and older collections. They pop up on a regular basis. For example, last night I picked up 700 or so book that included a NMish run of Sandman #1-75, a nice run of Swamp Thing #37 - 171, and New Teen Titans/Tales of #1-59 plus a bunch of other nice books (e.g. Transformers #1, 3, 4; Power Man & Iron Fist #56 up, Avengers #190 - 230, some Tecs, GLs, Spideys, etc.)

 

You will never find that sort of material her in SoCal. And if you do, you're paying for it.

 

The few times I've gone to look at collections have been massive wastes of time. People with no clue how much their stuff is worth, and think it's worth a fortune. I have tried to explain, but to no avail. These people get offended, and think you're trying to cheat them, when you won't pay $1/book for their 90's post-Unity Valiants, so the only thing to do is get back into the car and drive away.

 

Too much competition, here.

 

I'm not sure if it's changed, but during last year's San Diego Comic Con, I visited a store outside LA and made a huge score with multiples of several copper keys. It was actually the place where the 3 Man of Steel 18 9.9s came from, spent about $2500 on all copper stuff that was all priced using OSPG. I've shopped there in the past and it's worked out very well, so I can't complain about my experiences in the SoCal area.

What if they did this with Deadpool ? X-force #2 would be the new 1st appearance. :banana:

I have no idea what book it is, but the 1st book where he breaks the 4th wall would be a nice Deadpool "key" if i was a huge fan of his. IMO that's what really made him famous.

You mean the proscenium? Yep, that would be a good one.

If X-Force #2 is, there's probably a good chance #11 will at some point.

Imo. Domino's first appearance was NM98. It was the first time anyone became aware there was a character named Domino. Even if it was an imposter... that imposter imposted someone whose exsistence was not known (and therefore could not be 'copied') until NM98.

I doubt it. People are attached to Deadpool, not Donmino.

I have a NM copy of X-Force #11 in an eBay auction that ends on Sunday night. They're at least getting a lot of looks because it currently has 10 people watching it.

X-Force #2, #11, #14-15 (vs. Cable), #23 (vs, Domino again), #56 (multiple Deadpools).

 

I think they'll all get a bump, certainly over the 25-cents they were "valued" at before.

 

Peace,

 

Chip

 

Here's hoping #15 does decent too. :wishluck:

 

A couple of days ago I found like 42 nice copies of X-Force #15 in a collection I bought about 3 years ago. lol

This is almost getting scary! Who would have thought a million print run book would rebound 20+ years later.

 

Look at X-Force 1 with deapool cards, a 5 million print run book, just insanity.

If you ever tell me the goodies you found in my area, we will have to rumble.

I thought Domino's first appearance was X-Force #8 per Marvel.com

 

http://marvel.com/universe/Domino_%28Neena_Thurman%29

#8 was a flashback and 11 was a full appearance. Not that it's the authority on first appearances, but CGC doesn't note the appearance in #8 from what I have seen. No idea as to why, though.
