TOD#10, to me has always been overpriced. Blade just is not that exciting of a character in comics. In fact, prior to the movie, he was barely even known.

 

WBN#32. I like the Moon Knight character, so I can't really argue against his appearances being overvalued.

 

Eventually someone here, will mention AT#25, but don't listen to them.

I don't think ASM #129 or Werewolf #32 are overpriced. I think ASM is where it should be, and Werewolf has been underpriced in past years and is just now being where it should be.

 

I can't actually think of any overpriced 1st app in my opinion. In general I think Overstreet prices those accordingly, but overprices many of the surrounding issues.

Iron Fist 14 - Sabre-who?

WWBN 32 - All this hype and $$$ for... Moon Knight? screwy.gif

TOD 10 - Put a stake in Blade, he's done.

Ms Marvel 18 - WTF ???

Marvel Spotlight 5 - Nice book, but current prices are totally 893censored-thumb.gif up.

ASM 129 guides for almost as much as 121 & 122 combined. Completely absurb in my opinion.

I think IF 14 has been overpriced since the 90's, hence the reason I still don't own a NM copy

 

If not for the Byrne art, I would say it's the most overpriced 1st appearance.

Amazing Adventures 11 sumo.gif

 

Man, how did I miss that one? foreheadslap.gif

 

It's probably tied with Iron Fist 14 at the top of my list, and is easily the most over-rated "key" yeahok.gif in the entire BA.

And the worst thing is that the damn art is just horrible. I had 11-14 and couldnt stand to look at it, let alone try to read it.

Of course now that I am going to try and get the Picture Frames, i will have to get them again. foreheadslap.gif

Those were just as bad as the early Ghost Rider books - it would give you a brain tumor just to read them. makepoint.gif
