OA story content no longer flying under the radar -- FF 118 page 0

[bluechip]

Used to be I could count on "story content" carrying little weight in OA prices and I could pick up things which I considered cool or canonic or culturally significant for the average price for pages which had none of those going for them.  

Not so much, lately.   While working out at the gym I checked on my phone prepping to bid on a page from FF 119 (not 118) which I hoped would go for the normal price put on pages going purely by the usual metrics (title, issue number, artist, art size, panel size), without any premium for the story on the page (Black Panther, renamed the "Leopard" and fighting side by side with Torch and Thing in Apartheid South Africa).   Well, unless all Buscema FF's from the era for close to 3K, seems like some other folk were also intrigued by the content.

 

For some reason two extra images loaded but I don't have time to figure out how to delete them

I was very intrigued by the strong perspective at first, although I lost interest once I started reading the book. I can see why others wouldn't have, though.

Maybe just a bump from Black Panther?
