I added the wolverine book on there though. Sounds interesting if not hyperbolic.
Anyone looking ahead to next week yet? This has been a
Crazy last 14 days or so.

Thatās a nice Rogue cover, but at this point, Jack Kirby could come back from the dead to do the art and a Marvel book still wouldnāt heat up.

Sad but true. During the covid boom it was the oppositeā¦ Marvel spec was huge and I think retailers have been conditioned to order heavier on Marvel titles than anything else. So now it seems every Marvel book is readily available so secondary market is weak.

That could be why DC is killing it. DC is under ordered and doing cool stuff. Complete flip from the Covid days.

Around the COVID boom, the MCU was still popular and driving interest in Marvel. The junk on Disney+ and some poor movies since 2022 really tanked interest in the MCU and thus has bled over to the comics. If Avengers Doomsday and the new Spider-man movie are good, Marvel could get resuscitated.
My pick. Already limit 1 (Midtown). 1st print has come down a bit, but series still has consistent demand. Having read this myself it was a cool issue with newsprint interior (why canāt comics go back to newsprint?). People are going to naturally want to grab this book for a variety of reasons if they werenāt able to secure the 1at print.
Two others.
One is a Dave Stevens, re-used art (I forget from what). Stevens isnāt as hot as he used to beā¦so hard to gauge.
The other likely was heavily ordered as it was heavily solicited at FOC. That and itās not an image book and burnout from the past few weeks may temper any new story excitement.
