Fantastic! The sketch one is really cool
Messaged him on the Kickstarter and he replied that mine should be in the mail no later than Monday. Must have had one or more of the damaged issues that were sent back (I honestly don’t know).

Some of those prices shown (not all) are undercut from where they were last week, Not sure I would undercut too much with how limited these are. Monsters is still a hot commodity and looks like it will be for the next little while at least, but profit is profit so more power to whoever is selling these.

Yeah, I’m not celebrating these sales. They’re going to continue undercutting because a lot are being listed and aren’t selling. And the listings are growing daily with very few sales l, comparatively. Even the original Kickstarter prices have dropped.
The blind bags really hurt the monster and the wolf kickstarter in the short term.

100% I wish the blind bags were a different title altogether.

Goes to show, speculators gobble up available copies and supply before others had a chance, they swamp the market, so now we’re seeing supply higher than overall demand… Just how it goes sometimes!

Mark Spears needs to stick with horror.
MAID CAFE #1 CVR A MARK SPEARS BAGGED WITH TRADING CARD
A terrifying hardcore slasher horror series from the writer of Papa Duke and the artist of Marry Me! Mao’s love for her chainsaw and her mounting hatred for the ungrateful men of a Maid Cafe explode in a delicious bloodbath, spilling out over a shopping center. Her fellow maids soon catch the fever of retribution, and the girls of the otherwise competing cafes, decorated in cheeky aprons, pink hair bows, and blue suede shoes, run amok through the mall’s Pachinko parlors and snack shops. Join the maids in a frilly pastel uprising!

I dunno… this is the only bridezilla cover I like.
Yeah. I like it.
That’s doesn’t sound good for business…
Needs a good chiropractor, for sure.
I’m hesitant to buy any Spears covers outside of Monsters (I’ve even slowed my roll on Monsters covers too). Other than that DC Lobo cover most other non Monsters covers don’t really take off like the Monsters books have. Maybe a couple of the Spawn covers but they didn’t really go nutso.

Yeah, I’m sticking primarily to Monsters and M&tW.
I’m even slowing down on M&tW unless I see a cover I REALLY like (which I’m sure there will still be quite a few).

No. Everyone must by any and all Mark Spears covers. Otherwise the market collapses and messes up our retirement plans.
Defensive buying!!! Keep demand high!!!
(I’m being sarcastic…I hope people can see that this is not serious advice…much less good advice…)

Spears work doesn’t translate well to most things outside of Monsters (my opinion)….but Spawn seems to be an exception…although Spawn characters are kinda Monster-like. So it makes sense.
1:50 variant. Too bad there isn’t an open order or I’d grab one.

Give it time, the price will come down. The king spawn spears 1:50 can be had for under $20 now. In a few months you could probably get one for $10.

I got my Kickstarters! Going through now to check on conditions before I post any pics
Also bought some M&tW single issues that I wanted and got them for a price I can live with. I am pssed about the most expensive one I bought (CGC quality control is off-the-chain terrible) and at my own stupidity when re-looking at the pictures in the listing
