rexinnih Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 While I think there is a lot of room for Spiderman 51 to grow, FF 49 does have, to me, an iconic cover, 1st full Galactus and 1st Silver Surfer cover. KCOComics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't be surprised if 51 passed it at least in higher grades depending on how this MCU appearance is carried out. Assuming it even does? On the other side it wouldn't be far fetched to believe Galactus has an appearance of his own at some point. If I had to choose one of those long term its 49 but not by much. I haven't heard much on this Kingpin rumor. Any word on who the actor could be? Is it the actor from the Netflix series? Edit: just checked FF49 in highest grades and yeah....I think it's more safe than I estimated lol! I still think 51 could outpace for a while but not surpass. Spoiler Alert: Spoiler Vincent D'onofrio appears as "Kingpin" in the "Hawkeye" series currently on Disney+. I would guess he - along with Charlie Cox/Daredevil - will be in upcoming Marvel projects.

Seems to be climbing readily and probably got a boost front the news of Brendan Frasier as Firefly. Brendan Fraser and boost in the same sentence just seems wrong to me. That being said, it was indeed a nice price for the copy. The Batman SA and BA keys have quietly done very well the past year.

I was only watching a handful, and I usually bid aggressively on the books I'm targeting, but couldn't justify trying to keep up with these: Avengers #93 CGC 9.6 WP -- $5,040 Avengers #94 CGC 9.6 WP -- $3,360 Captain America #111 CGC 9.6 WP -- $1,920 Those are all WAAAY above any sale I'm aware of for these books. Has to be some kind of anomaly? What happened to the earlier Captain America Comics (TOS). Did the price go up? I like the Kirby covers.

Beige Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 Tonights Heritage - ALL HG Thors went through the roof - not just 134 as Littledoom has noted. Double GPA high for some. Complete bidding frenzy. A TTA #35 slipped through dirt cheap - I should have grabbed it. Only low grade but a steal.

I wasn't involved at all but I do think Thor is an undervalued run. Seems people are looking for places to put their money and inevitably their attention turns to any title that's remained (relatively) affordable.

Popular Post kimik Posted January 4, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 4, 2022 (edited) No. Thor and DD are fully valued. Everyone just needs to keep focused on ASM, FF and X-Men for now please.

If this is the case, do you think it's possible we start to see prices shoot up in runs like Iron Man, Silver Surfer, Subby, Doctor Strange, and Captain America even though they don't really have as much as Thor in terms of big keys?

I would go further and say that all of the titles you've mentioned above HAVE already shot up quite a bit. I collect every one of those books and they have all risen without exception. Movie hype and speculation has been every bit as much of a factor on these titles ... Thor has #165 (Warlock) for example, but Cap has #117 (Falcon) and speculation around Silver Surfer and Subby is through the roof. I think there has also been a sudden spike in appreciation of the Frank Brunner Dr. Strange covers in the early issues of his 1974 reboot title. I would say watch out for issues that the hype guys are trying to make a big deal out of, but aren't worth the exorbitant asking prices -- I'm thinking Subby #5 (Tiger Shark) and Captain America #180 (Nomad) as two examples off the top of my head.

Crimebuster Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 Thor has amazing Kirby universe building stories with huge scope and power. Ego, Galactus, Pluto, Mangog, Hela, Him, it's just greatness after greatness. Meanwhile, Daredevil has Mike Murdock.

KirbyJack Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 JIM/Thor is my second favorite Marvel title behind Fantastic Four. As Crimebuster pointed out, Kirby let loose and the Marvel Universe got a lot bigger. It baffles me that a few thees and thous were enough to keep collectors away from enjoying this excellent run. Now, of course, the frenzy is on. MGsimba77, KCOComics, Pantodude and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, of course, the frenzy is on. I love this book. It's the only main Marvel title I had a full run of ("Thor" only - through #255) when I started collecting. Also had JIM #112-125 and a couple earlier ones. Still have all these, of course . Loved the cross-over with the Greek Gods and battle in the Underworld. Had an LTE published in #238 (can't remember if I sent it to Thor or some other book - the letter wasn't specific to the title). Read the karp out of all those books in the 70s.
