Jimmy Linguini Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 Which Completed Hickman titles are "worth bucks"? In my experience, S.H.E.I.L.D 1 was doing stupid things when it first came out. Aside from that only MP has gone up in value, which I didn't see coming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lonzilla Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 #1 was alright then at the end I was like "ok I get it" and re-read it so I had a better understanding of where #2 was going, but #3 it seems like was just all over the place and not up to par with what I expect from a Hickman story. MP is very wordy and drawn out but I love the book, unlike Nowhere Men which I see as MP-lite BTW, since I was never a science major, I'm more familiar with what's going on in MP thanks to Big Bang Theory Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nexus Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 Finished reading #3 and won't be buying #4, the series just isn't very good. It's no MP Sorry you don't like it. I'm not sure comparing it to MP is fair at this point. I think that the books are different beasts. I like MP better because it's funnier. EoW is still a lot of fun. I can see there being lots of people who really like one, but dislike the other. They tone in each book is so different. None of Hickman's other books read like MP and that's because of Nick Pitarra. They work "Marvel-style" on the book, so there's a lot of Pitarra on the page. Hence, the wacked-out humor. I get the sense that Hickman tailors each book to the strengths of his collaborators. Dragotta is into world-building, so there's a totally different feel between EoW and MP. I have faith that Hickman is going to let Dragotta do his thing AND still be able to tell a story. Gotta give it a few more issues to play out, imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the authority Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 I can't find how many issues of number 3 were printed. Does anyone have a clue ? On a different note, I really liked this issue and the run so far. With the setup at the end of number 3, I have a hunch number 4 could be epic...or not ;-) Here is to hoping.

Machiavelli Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 I thought my issue 3 copies looked good but just went back to take a closer look. They are scarred. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the authority Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 That sounds bad. How are they scarred ? Indentions or color ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You get an idea from http://www.comichron.com/ you can look at the 'sales' numbers, as each of these sold out at the distributor level you'll know when the numbers get posted.... But thier #2 probably will give you some idea..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Machiavelli Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 That sounds bad. How are they scarred ? Indentions or color ? It's not as bad as I made it sound. They have the same errors as most of the prints I've seen. http://www.ebay.com/itm/East-of-West-3-June-2013-Image-Near-Mint-Cheap-Shipping-/281120276528?pt=US_Comic_Books&hash=item4174130030 Not my listing but I'm just using the picture.

the authority Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 Yeah, I see it. Not great. I'm not sure what how much that would effect the grade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the authority Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 Number 2 came in at roughly 42,000 sales. In the May listings, East of West 3 is omitted from the list. There is no way it didn't make the top 300. I appreciate you pointing out comichron.com. I use it regularly. I don't understand how the third print of number 1 came in at 296 and number 3 is not on the list. Can anyone help with this ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBT Posted June 15, 2013 Author Share Posted June 15, 2013 comichron is not the source of the data, Diamond is. If EoW isnt in comichron's list, it either didnt count in May's sales data, and will be in the June Data, or it was missed. Generally, comichron doesnt leave gaps between 1-300, so i would presume its a June Data book, not May. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
