Bluemedgroup Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 On 8/24/2021 at 8:44 PM, StillOnly25Cents said: why? people have been spec'ing on SS for a long time the trailer did nothing to solidify that or give new info to non collectors Doc Ock was the only SS member from that book shown, Green Goblin wasn't a SS member and the trailer only hinted at him Because now the general public has seen the trailer. Main page feature on yahoo and other sites about the 15 hidden theories of the trailer including the sinister six. I would think that there are a large number of casual collectors who haven’t researched or aren’t following spec theories daily. Finally, Marvel doesn’t need to follow the exact sinister six team members as in the original comic. They have done that before in the movies. Last time I checked, Sgt. Fury was a white guy in the comics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StillOnly25Cents Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 the general public/casual collectors are not speculators if they buy they aren't going to do so until the see 6 villains on the big screen and again, people that believe SS is coming have already driven the book up ... nothing shown in the trailer added anything to further advance that spec maybe if the team was known as the Sinister 2 sales would be exploding Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

About a year would do - it might be done by then..... These TAT's are ridiculous currently, so the longer the Sinister Six can wait to be seen, the better!

Last good one was that Brad Pitt film 'Fury' back in 2014. Still a market for them - GI Jane, Fury, Private Ryan etc etc Bluemedgroup and HighVoltage 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pickycollector Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 I wish I was a DC collector rather than a Marvel zombie, missing keys would be cheaper to look for at today's prices. KCOComics and silverseeker 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of good ones have come out since Fury too, 1917, Darkest Hour, Hacksaw Ridge, Dunkirk, or if you want something with Sci fi or comedy there's Overlord or Jo Jo Rabbit, and I'm sure I'm forgetting some. Now if Marvel could bring back the western that would be a true feat. Two Gun Kid, Kid Colt, Rawhide Kid or Phantom Rider movies would be interesting to see on the big screen. There hasn't been a really good western in about a decade at this point, I think Lone Ranger was their last big one to see screens and it was such a bomb Disney is gun shy to do any more.

This run is red hot at the moment. But this latest sale of TTA #93 is hard to conceive. The big prices has brought a lot of 9.6's, and 9.8's onto the market, but this sale...wow.

Seems like ive been hearing this book is due for a big jump in price for at least 20 years. It does go up in price. but at a snails pace. if that.

It does go up in price. but at a snails pace. if that. Times have changed with practically any collectible. Prices have gone through the roof even the ones that have none or small yearly growth. Yeah everyone has been saying Showcase 22 is due for a big jump, well this may be the big jump we are seeing. Sure, it's not as big as Marvel keys but it is something lol. It's a cool book and great to have if you're a fan of DC/Green Lantern, but if buying purely for investment, I would not recommend it. I'd rather stick with the household name Marvel key books for higher growth. That's just my opinion. alexgross.com, zosocane, GAMBIT and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it did pretty well, as noted. There are so few sales of Star Trek#1 that I don't know how much of that was catch-up as opposed to folks prioritizing low-census grades of keys more than in the past. I've been underestimating the latter, so this is interesting. Now there's a 9.2 W at Heritage (14 days left). I wonder how that will do with only 11 in grade and only 16 (!) higher.
