Dead Spec Gallery of Horrors

Enormous - I remember buying a ton of these comics when the writer was posting on the CGC forums. Love the art and the story is good as well - it’s the multiples of each issue that got me

Most Marvel female led comics: The Mighty Thor, Captain Marvel, Riri Williams, Kamala Khan, Moon Girl & Devil Dinosaur, Silk. I enjoy my Moon Girl and Silk comics though

Star Wars High Republic. Damn, we need that live action made :rofl:

Thor: God of Thunder is still one of the BEST Marvel series in the last 25 years IMO

Aphra, Ahsoka and Thrawn but I like these characters so not a total waste

I like when people here say they still liked the comics even if the spec didn’t work out. If we buy what we like we didn’t waste our money! Right?

Those are still some awesome comics to have high grades on! I need to get some more Thor: God of Thunder books

I agree with you David - Maybe we spent too much or bought too many, but if you like the cover/story, then it wasn’t a total waste

I also think there’s a difference between dead spec and spec that has come and gone and we missed the right window to sell.

And, several of the above, I still believe in! WE LIVE is so good. I swear I have half a short box dedicated to those 5 issues. I still hope that some day it’ll become a movie or something. Wishful thinking.

Vengeance is certainly a come/gone one.

The one thing I still like about Vengeance is that it is a great cover & to this day…I really just don’t see it that often. Clearly that is in part to it not being popular, but I never found it to be a easy book to get ahold of.

I’ve got a nice raw copy that I missed the sell window on, but… yeah, I still don’t see this out there a lot and when I do, it’s often dirty/beat up from years of no one caring.

I’ll just post a picture of 6 long boxes I filled in ‘22-‘24. Filled with Star Wars, DC and Marvel first appearances, and a bunch of “great” indies like Shadecraft, We Live, Twigg, etc. Instead of going for the quick flip, I thought some of these will only keep going up. I’ve got Tosin, Red Canary, Ghost Light, White Adam (can’t even remember anymore what name they gave him) and all that once hot Echo and Riri stuff. I will say, the DD books with Echo have nice covers; I really like the one with the blue hand print that is prominent on it. I wish some rich guy would buy them all off me for cover price and then donate them. Win win for me and charity.

Just wait till the facsimile… then its truly dead…

I never worry about the hot new books. I just go for older keys and stuff I want and sell the hot new stuff.
