The official J Scott Campbell Appreciation/Discussion Thread 12 12

[Cyber Warrior]

Normally around 3000 for color 1500 for sketch on store exclusives. We'll never know exact #s as Marvel doesn't like releasing that info and frowns on stores releasing that info but it's usually around those figures..give or take a few.

[zupaphly]

There is a new 9.8 Black Panther NYCC sketch variant up for auction on eBay... who's is it???

[jreezy]

Already over 1k. Let's see if it goes higher than the last 9.8 that sold for $3600.

I doubt another fool out there pays that much for a copy.

[Cyber Warrior]

There's probably only a handful of people out there willing to pay that much for a Campbell variant..once more and more of these hit the market.. I think prices will settle lower and lower. And it seems theres a decent amount of these out there..since I've been searching for a copy for myself, I've come across close to 10 copies .. I'd imagine a lot more will come to market once people see the prices these are commanding.

 

Still an expensive book, but not $3600. .or anywhere close to it. ..just my opinion.

[Jaydogrules]

It was a $5 book less than a year ago.

 

Then several people started saying "look it's rare it's rare it's rare, only 5 copies on census !"

 

Apparently not remembering that cheap-o books don't often get slabbed.

 

Then multiple copies started popping up all over the place, severely testing the myth of its rarity. There have been (at least) 10 copies of them on eBay in the last four months alone, and the (now two) blue labels on the census have both been sold by their owners in the last month.

 

Red flags abound.

Judging by his signature line I'm pretty sure jaydog wouldn't have a problem securing a copy of this book if he wanted to.

 

People talk about modern variants being unknown like the Internet was just invented last year. Just another empty platitude to prop up a book nobody cared about a year ago.

 

And the "you missed out" line needs to disappear from these forums forever. And it can take the "this book has legs" line with it.

And honestly... if you want to troll guys... I'm sure Larry D is starting a fight somewhere on here... you can probably leave an appreciation thread alone

[Cyber Warrior]

...approaching $2000

the 510 sketch is still the ultimate Campbell .

 

 

 

[Cyber Warrior]

Yeah, probably my favorite book. I think I prefer the color over the sketch in terms of looks just because it has an awesome background. But vice versa on the Black Panther..on that book I like the sketch, really pops compared to the regular cover.

Wolverine 1.

Still love the Wolverine as my fav too.

 

I overpaid for the BP #1, but o well, when you want a book, you want a book. I love the art, although sounds like I'm in the minority I also paid less than a grand for my MJ 9.8, win some lose some especially in the MA Grail game.

 

I am excited to see how much I overpaid for the BP #1 book, I'm guessing it'll get close to $3K (probably no more than that?) again since there were two other guys willing to go over $3K before I started bidding. More copies have popped up so time will tell
