Definitive Key Comic List

[Quicksilver Signs]

So if 3 people want to own Youngblood #4 it's a key.

 

No, if undefined percentages of people in the community want it, it's a key.

 

(I'm not sure if we're being serious here or not.)

Question: If someone wants a book they know nothing about, why do they want it?

 

I can answer this. Because it is "hot" or someone else wants it. Seriously, that about sums up some of the rises and falls of modern comics the last couple of years. There are people who do nothing but buy books other people think are "hot" without a care for what the book is about.

 

 

Best and most extreme example of this is FF 45 Ten or so years ago it was listed as pretty much the same value in the OPG as 44 with an indication as being 1st app Inhumans. Very easily attainable because no one thought of it as any kind of grail, not even close. Inhumans fanbase - pretty small

 

I think it's cooled but it surpassed FF 48 in value, which has always been a key. Unbelievable.
