FBP - Federal Bureau of Physics (previously Collider)

[UncannyX-Force]

1C - with FBP logo. 3000 print run. VERY hard to find....

 

Does that mean the original "Collider" title logo has the highest print run of all the #1's?

 

Oh man, really, I was just at a shop and I passed on 5 copies that were in NM or better grade....shoot. Kicking my self in the *spoon*

 

MyComicShop still has them available for sale 1st Prints are $6.40 and the 2nd Prints with the "FBP" Cover are still listed for sale at cover price.

"Robbi Rodriguez’s last issue of Federal Bureau of Physics is the upcoming #13. That’s a really sad note, as it’s a book I enjoy, and particularly for the contributions of Rodriguez and cover artist Nathan Fox. Hopefully whatever the enormously talented Rodriguez works on comes soon. I truly dig his work."

Bummer, I enjoy the book but honestly in the month (at least?) between issues i forget most of what has happened. I'm looking forward to re-reading it all in one go when it finishes though.

I read the 1st of this most recent arc. It was both interesting and some what dull. I'm hoping the 2nd one is better.

WTTB TheNewMutant ! I think you'll find a lot of thoughts on the books here. I'm personally a 1st print guy. I would pay no more than cover for any 2nd because I just don't want 1 in my collection. I feel like this. They could make a 3rd print with 500 issues, a 4th with 400 copies all the way down to 1 copy. That is more sports card collector than comic collector imo.

 

On the other hand, lots of card guys collect comics. Good luck either way. (thumbs u

Hey, thanks! I usually don't collect second prints, myself. But this one was interesting so I decided to grab two copies of the second printing. I may unload them soon to raise funds for completing my TWD collection. I've got a nearly complete run but I'm missing a couple of key issues. I like this series, so I may hold onto one #1 for reading.

Liking this series so far..

so where is this going? will this series have staying power? i have like 9 or 10 of the #1 first prints, 4 #2s and 4 #3s..

 

should i dump them now like i did my Saga 1s only to see them go up another 300-400% after i do?

I was lucky to grab a FBP 1 for $3, and then Collider out of the 0.89/lb bin.

when i looked yesterday they only had two copies available. an $80 VF and a $40 fine. yes, those prices seem rather optimistic, true, as they were consignment books, but it seems mycs is cleaned out otherwise.

The second story arc, "Wish you were here", was superb.

I recommend this series to any sci-fi fan -- especially X-Files.

 

But... I am sad to see Robbi Rodriguez move on as the Artist.

I am not a fan of the new artist, Ponticelli. Ponticelli is trying to be & falling short of Paul Azaceta.

 

Robbi Rodriguez is one of the creators of FBP and likely still part-owns the rights.

he returns as the artist on the next arc.
