carter3175 Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 Call me crazy but after reading issue 5 this book is on Saga level. Its a damn shame I don't have 1 issue of this series slabbed yet. Time to get to work. This is a very worthy series to collect and read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comic-Ninjah-migration Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 Na, mine will be boxed for a while. When they hit 20 I might leak a couple.... Who am I kidding, I've never sold a comic in my life... HOARDER!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZaCrew Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 anyone else holding their EoW close to the vest and not selling. I've been tempted a few times to sell some #1s...latest sale was $8.95 for a raw. I have only sold one of my slabs a while back for $90 I think #1 will be an easy $125 book by the mid/late winter.

VEI Reborn Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 Na, mine will be boxed for a while. When they hit 20 I might leak a couple.... Who am I kidding, I've never sold a comic in my life... HOARDER!!!! Me neither. I just get giddy when something goes up but never sell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krighton Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 (edited) i'd be tickled if it were $125 by winter....maybe a perfect storm of tv show news could push it that high. I think Saga 1 raw has only topped $70. Edited August 18, 2013 by krighton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time to get to work. This is a very worthy series to collect and read. I wouldnt call you crazy. IMO this book is MUCH better than Saga. Saga just doesnt do it for me. Thats not to say Saga isnt a damn good book....I just get way more enjoyment out of EoW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krighton Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 EoW was in Saga territory briefly in the last issue with that unexpected birth/ breast shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Saga 1 raw has only topped $70. $125 slabbed by winter... not raw. It would definitely need TV/Movie news to get that kind of price.

Giroux Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 (edited) Wish i picked this up back when Issue 1 hit the market in CGC slabs.. the way this book is headin that could be a nice payday one day http://www.ebay.com/itm/IMAGE-COMICS-EAST-OF-WEST-1-CGC-9-9-NOT-9-8-HIGHEST-CGC-PGX-GRADE-/330938258368?pt=US_Comic_Books&hash=item4d0d7513c0 Edited August 18, 2013 by Hoarders-Saga ed.

comicsnyc22 Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 There will definitely be more. I subbed 5 back when it came out and could not believe I didn't get any 9.9's. Great paper stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ItsJustRyan Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 +1 I subbed a few more than five ( ) and I too couldn't believe I didn't hit a 9.9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the authority Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 I've seen a few auctions end up a little higher on runs the last few days. The BIN sales are considerably better. This is not mine but an example http://www.ebay.com/itm/EAST-OF-WEST-1-2-3-4-5-1st-print-set-Jonathan-Hickman-Nick-Dragotta-IMAGE-/121159612541?pt=US_Comic_Books&hash=item1c35acf87d The new character from issue 5 was a nice unexpected addition. Issue 6 introduces us to the Ranger and according to Dragotta, not a guy you want to mess with. Does anybody else remember a character on the cover of a book that doesn't get introduced until 5 issues later ?Which will be the Ranger's first appearance RRP or issue 6 ?

ChrisInBaltimore Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 I didn't say this earlier, but I'd say without a doubt that issue 5 was the best of the book. I'm one of the skeptics of the book, but I do want to praise it when it is deserved. I saw others saying it and wanted to chime in. It shows a lot of promise for the series.

the authority Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 first appearance is always Diamond Previews Thanks for the input. I have never personally considered magazines other than comics first appearances any more than I do the posters that come out at the same time as previews.I think the Malibu Sun 13 got that started and you see it sell on ebay e few times a month as such.They are all printed on paper but they aren't all comics. What I am curious about is what will be his first appearance in comics. He appears to be a major player in the East of West universe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
