aaronc Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Is this expectation that a 9.8 will always be around for cheap suppressing the price of this book? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
followtheleader Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 #6 was a great issue. Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garf Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Is this expectation that a 9.8 will always be around for cheap suppressing the price of this book? No... it's the demand not being as big as the supply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pirate Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Read the trade this weekend along with issue 6 and I have to say this book rocks. I still like Saga a touch more but not much more. 5 out of 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vikingreed Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Haven't read 6 yet, but reread 1-5 this weekend. Love this book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jreezy Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Is this expectation that a 9.8 will always be around for cheap suppressing the price of this book? The print run for issue #1 is pretty high. It also has a 2 other variants. Rrp is the book to own if you are looking at it from a investment standpoint.

Dr Chaos Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 I finally got to read the first paperback a few days ago and came away impressed. Looking forward to see where they go with this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emezy360 Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Good to see so many new readers at the end of the first arc. (thumbs u Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meta4 Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Have there been any hard numbers given on the Ghost and Forbidden Planet Variants? What Ive been told was a 5000 print run on the ghost variant, and a 1000 print run on forbidden planet. As far as speculating goes, these two or the rrp are your best bet. Plus, I like their covers more than those on the monthly issues so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meta4 Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 I also believe this book is going to explode overvthe next 6 months. We saw saga do a similar thing, start off strong, but really blow up around issue 7 after the trade was released. This is the kind of series that after people read the first trade, they wont be patient enough to wait for the second one, and will be floppy buyers.

Vikingreed Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 I would love to confirm that 1,000 Forbidden Planet number... If true, that is a big sleeper issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meta4 Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Also, the extensive ink stains on many of the copies of the rrp's should limit the number of 9.8's further. This could be a very limited book, even 50 ink stained copy's from the print run would put it at half the available 9.8's that the saga rrp had. Factor in shipping damaged copy's due to this rrp being mailed out rather than given out at a show, and we're looking at one rare book here people. BeerThirty, my books will be arriving at your work today, I cant stress how awesome you are for bringing them to NyCC for me. You are, of course, the man. Its very appreciated.

Meta4 Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 (edited) I thought about making you an offer on it, but I just sent 4 raw copy's out to nycc to be signed and slabbed. Out of curiosity, how much are you putting it up for on ebay? Edited October 7, 2013 by Meta4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
