Comics Cooling Down - When to Pounce!

I knew you had a clever plan :slight_smile:

For those of you interested: Darth Maul 2 (first Cad Bane) can now be had for less than $40 (usually around $25-30) regularly with CGC 9.6 less than $100 and 9.8 right around $100.

I think Star Wars in general is cooling down right now. Boom time is over for Star Wars.

For now it is over. It has a tendency to heat and cool for sure!

yes…it…will…

Would be a great time to buy anything related to “Wraith”.
Always thought he was cool.
Cates & Marvel did him dirty.

Is it Donny Cates’ Wraith or former police captain Yuri Watanabe Wraith?

EDIT: And I completely agree that Cates’ ‘ending’ for Wraith completely and totally sucked! I bought in at the height :upside_down_face: so I’m biased that hopefully he’ll be resurrected in the Marvel universe at some point. He’s a cool character IMO

I always pictured a solo, or at least a mini-series, centered on Wraith that had a Fist Full of Dollars…Western in Space vibe…

He was such a good character. Wish they would use him more.

Good call, guys. Cates really did Wraith and The Sentry dirty. It was very disappointing.

I’ve seen 9.8 copies of Strange Academy 1 for sub $150. Maybe worth it scoop some up, crack them and go for 10.0s

Wow.

The weird thing is how Star Wars doesn’t like to intermingle comic stories with the live action. So this really hurts characters like Aphra where you really can’t introduce her without messing with comic continuity.

My LCS may have this a bit over priced…

Even at its peak I don’t think this book hit $400…

Heck, you can buy the 1:25 for that!
So absurd.

I think the highest this book hit at its peak was around $600. Right now, they are selling for around $125-150 in a 9.8. Such a huge fall from grace. At this point, even if Doctor Aphra shows up in a TV show or even movie, how much will this book even go up to at this point or even a few years down the road? You know Marvel/Disney at this point is too busy trying not to do much of anything with characters that have been in the books. Look at The Acolyte and The High Republic set of books, we are probably now sitting on a crap ton of HR books that will never sell.
