You and me both, but you've picked up others If there is enough issues for a tpb or volume, I might give this series a try. I vaguely remember the LCS doing a rundown video of SIKtC on new comic book day, just saying it was picking up steam when they got to showing off the new books. I would say that you never know on a series (unless you just read everything) unitl even after issue 5-10, cause sometimes judging by "value" is a fluke The only real way is for me to pick up to read WolverineX 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's more of a horror mystery book like the show stranger things. ADAMANTIUM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Currently on issue 18 with 19 coming out the 25th. I have actually contemplated selling my 9.6 Clone Wars #1 to fund a 9.8 SIKtC #1 and some raw issues. But just not decided if I REALLY want to.

Yes, the frison cover is substantially cheaper then cover A so I'm going to pick it. Seems like the most famous cover so far and maybe a good deal if it's used for the Netflix show.

Yep GitD = Glow in the Dark as Qalyar stated. Here is #17 all glowed up! Being that I read comics (not so much as collected as I really should have) in the 80s and 90s, GitD holds a special place in my heart thanks to covers like the Ghost Rider cover below. I actually picked up Nocterra #1 simply because there was a GitD cover. And Geiger as well. Never went past issue #1 of Nocterra, as cover A was sold out when I went to look for issue 2. But Geiger, oh man that is a good series. kairos70, WolverineX, ADAMANTIUM and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qalyar Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 Also, I do have to add that SiKtC is... a really good series. I've sort of held firm to the idea that I'm not going to actively collect it (mostly because of the spec pressure on the book's value), but it's absolutely worth reading.

I just don't "collect" it in terms of variant completion or the high grade chase. Financially, I certainly could. There's, what, a half dozen or so variants that are north of 1k in 9.8 at this point, and a bunch in the mid-hundreds? Notwithstanding availability, I'm certainly capable of just buying the whole thing outright, right now... although I'm sure I'd would get some side-eye from my wife if I did that. The thing is, these days, I just don't have as much fun chasing the stuff that everyone else is chasing. There's no real adventure to it. Every retailer knows immediately if they have SiKtC #1 NYCC or the SiKtC #5 Frison variant or whatever store exclusive. Collecting hot books is just a matter of throwing enough money at available copies more quickly than the next guy. Hell, with the adaptation in the works, those will probably even appreciate from their current values unless they screw that up somehow. But I'm an iconic black hole collector; I don't resell out of personal collection except for undercopies and the like, so I don't really care whether my books are worth 10 bucks or 10 thousand. I have the first TPB because I caught on to the series a little late, and I read the rest off a pull list, and I let people who care about the monetary value of their collection gobble up the exclusives and variants on this one.

Juno Beach Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 I'm surprised it took this long for someone to create this thread. I've been collecting since the first issue and can honestly say it's my favourite monthly comic right now. BladeTX and WolverineX 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
