Todd the Ugliest Kid on Earth 0

That is Ryan's auction, I think.

 

I bought one at $92. Stupid me. Should have waited and bought this one instead, to add to the 2 other auctions I won from him

Yeah, that was Ryan's auction. I bid, but lost

Anybody can enlightened me on how cgc prices are suddenly so depressed?

 

Is it just because of Con season or somehow the entire market is suddenly realising that modern comics shouldn't be worth so much?

[awakeintheashes]

It's that time if year again. Also, it's on a break. You'll recognize the trends after a while.

Can't wait for #5 ish! But the wait! Darn, I hate waiting...for the birds don't ya know.

That first arc has some awesome momentum. Looking forward what Ken comes up with for the next arc...as well as some fantastico art. Hurry up and wait some more.

That was one of the things discussed in the April data thread.

 

Why everybody assumes that just because a title is monthly means that it will rise over time? Data shows that only less than 10% of the titles being released actually see increase in print run over time. Most will see decline.

 

Currently, I will say Todd is stable but its fourth issue is still a 10% drop off its first issue.

 

Hard to say if this will increase over time (bearing no tv or movie news)

considering how much speculation there has been in the last 6 months, a 10% drop only is pretty much #winning. #1s always sell much more, even more so in speculator driven eras.

 

A stable print run is a rare thing, and speaks to the quality of the material.

Not a real fan of the series but even I have to admit that this speaks highly of the title.

[WebSlinger]

This is one tittle I enjoy, it's a fun read......a good break from all the dead and dark stuff I been reading lately.

[deleranko]

I love this series! It makes me laugh just as much if not more then Chew.

 

I think this title will acquire a loyal following just like Chew has.

[aaronc]

so let's assume it remains stable, how long will we see this being reflected as increasing prices?

 

Never been through this cycle before so pardon the newbie question.

[whetteon]

It will be a few years. Before all the madness of speculating it took at least 12 issues for the book to get heat and another year before it reached it's full potential.

In my neck of the woods, most people ignore minis until the TPB comes out. A lot of people don't even know this has been continued... I am very anxious to see how the print run rises once #5 comes out after the first TPB is released.

as others have said, people mostly think its a finished mini. In terms of "cycles", its hard to say. 2012/2013 is seeing some things that havent been around in almost a generation. (90s bubble).

 

In terms of the yearly cycle. Many view "convention season" as a down time for online sales and prices. The idea being that many people are spending a lot of money at conventions (less money in the buying pool), and things are more available offline (all the conventions serving buyers as well).
