I broke down & bought one of the color/b&w sets of the EXM & UXM #1 variants. Dammit. I just really needed them for my stupid completism.

 

I only bought the color set, B&W store variants are rarely all that great, but JSC is an outlier on almost everything he touches.

 

Ms. Marvel #2 1:20 Marvel 92 Variant isn't bad either. Sellers aren't trying to hype that cover as much as the Silk #3 cover though.

 

Agree with you about B&W covers. Even if it is perceived to be more "rare", the color versions are usually more in demand.

I'm just starting to build a JSC set (all colour, no sketch Marvel books) and I'm still trying to figure out if I want to do store variants or not. My problem is all those sweet books with Gwen on them which made me notice JSC in the first place are all usually Midtown variants.

The good thing is that store variants can be had for cheap.

 

 

You should post your pickups . :banana:

I'm about a month in since I picked up my first JSC book. This is where I'm at so far.

 

ASM #30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 492, 493, 500, 601, 606,

 

A vs X #3 variant

 

Black Panther #6

 

Black Widow #6 variant

 

Fall of the Hulks #1, 2, 3

 

Marvel Divas #1

 

Ms. Marvel #2 variant

 

Extraordinary X-Men #1 variant

 

Although I'd like to get all the "big books" first, I think an ASM Presents Black Cat is at the top of my list.

 

I went for the JSC Avengers cover in CLink a couple of weeks ago but didn't push it to the 5k I probably should have as l have the worst collecting ADD on the boards if not the planet, and want to make sure this "phase" lasts past Christmas and into the new year. :wishluck:

Image produced numerous versions of #2 of Danger Girl and this is the rarest of all. This is in fact a variant of a variant: there is a "Smoking gun" variant, which had a print run of 4,000 copies and two variants of that: a platinum foil logo variant (1,000 copies) and this comic, which has a dark red foil logo giving it its name: The Ruby red variant (400 copies).

 

As a side note, Artist J. Scott Campbell was apparently appauled at the number of variants produced in the series and also the pricing of them.

 

Danger Girl #2 Ruby Red Smoking Gun Variant

CGC have graded around 6.5% of the total print run on the Ruby Red variant and high grade copies can realize well over $1,000. Given the age of the comic, prices will have settled down so are unlikely to reduce, especially given the low print run.

 

Below are the regular smoking gun variant and platinum variant:

There's also his store exclusive one, which I think is the best one.

Are the "Danger Girl #1 Chromium A-Go-Go" variants worth much these days? At one time they seemed sky high, but I feel they've fallen a bit and if anything are worth a lot less than their pinnacle years ago.

I've been watching them to pick one up for pc... Seems like they sell for around 20-30...
