Modern Comics Heating Up (2026 Edition)

For cover or for more?

I got 3 copies tonight from a pre-order. Books were supposed to deliver tomorrow but mail was early.

Just waiting for mine from Third eye to come in now.

They did, I bought a couple from their site. I missed the Third Eye stock.

$6.19

That is not terrible. It’s a $5.99 book.

I got my 10 copies that I ordered at FoC. I’m hoping it goes up, but I feel like people should already be aware these beefcake books are selling so it was probably ordered more than the others.

Why $6.19? Do they add 20 cents on to every eBay listing?

So weird……

You would think….but you’d also think the same would be true concerning absolute Batman books and look what happens…most people react (instead of being proactive) and shops (and people) likely aren’t going to go heavy on a $5.99 variant cover of a low volume seller…

It’ll be all about where the people buying up the beef want this beef too…I think they will.

Maybe that’s a bag/board surcharge.

They charge $6.90 shipping base charge plus 35 cents per comic…which I assume is bagging/boarding.

So….shouldn’t it be $6.34 (eBay shipping is also $6.90).

More expensive to order direct from MCS than eBay….by 15 cents.

They probably get the top rated seller discount

But there are still eBay fees…which means it costs them more to sell on eBay than their own site.

I don’t get it. But I don’t really care either….

I picked up four of the sweater weather Nightwing that just came out at my local shops. I had a friend who was looking for them but couldn’t find them at their stores a few towns over so I sold them two for cover price cause I owe them for when they’ve helped me out. I’ve still got two to list though.

Notice how KCC didn’t put the beefcake cover on keys of the week. They still won’t acknowledge the trend or just are oblivious. Anyone who follows the market should know Nightwing beefcake is a must flip.

They just don’t appreciate buff dudes like us.

That’s fine. Don’t need competition out there scooping up copies.

I went to three shops and only found 1 copy of Nightwing 134.

Agreed.

He doesn’t seem to acknowledge them unless they’ve hit other hit lists.

For example…

No…come on.

I guess I’ll be making a trip back to my LCS today…

Must be the red font…
