Modern Comics Heating Up (Those With Potential Too) (Part 1)

I sold a few at $32, have one listed right now. I think its a low print and seems to be the cover to have because it features both the werewolf and his alter-ego.
Thought I should make my sales now rather than take a chance later on. May bite me :wink: if things with the show pan out.

Good advice. I have also adjusted my variant buying - if solid potential or if I like the cover.
I dont buy multiple copies of regular issues unless its a solid potential.

Also, I think I posted this before, but I have been lucky for some of the high print books, to find these at $0.25, $0.50, and $1 sales. Not a guarantee of course. This FCBD I lucked out on so many books including a Spawn 306 (Gunslinger cover), I could not believe it myself. So my strategy includes not buying anything that has a huge print, and just waiting for it to show up on sale. I would not recommend this for a book that is important to you.

8 copies of B cover arrived today.

Surprised this wasn’t a more popular cover, given its homage to Moon Knight 29. It’s why I grabbed a copy when it came out.

Here’s one next to my graded copy.

Lots of sales of Sword Master 1 today, not sure why. Plenty of copies available under cover.

I’ve scaled way back on ratios. From a flipping perspective, you need to be so quick to market. I got a lot of my ratios from TFAW, but with how slow they are to deliver books, that’s tough. It’s hard to predict the hot random ratio, too.

Store exclusives, to me, are more about just getting a fun cover, as they tend to take more chances than the open order books.

Just remember that on Ebay if you use an ‘auction’ + ‘Buy It Now’ option, the latter drops off once someone puts in an auction bid. This is important if you want to sell quickly or if you can wait. May be the difference between selling while hot vs. cooling off/cold.

1st appearance of Sword Master is in World of the Realms : New Agent of Atlas #2. There is a 1:25 Ron Lim variant.

Already sold most of killadelphia #1 aside from the lcbs #1. I know a lot of people are talking about staying away from ratios and variants etc but I’ve been consistently selling issues #3 - #6 of this series at a large premium for months, and the variants go for 25+, just look at the Jae Lee cover for #6. It’s the ghost of the series

Geez, that is the cover I have in my collection. Going for $40 on eBay.

What is the deal with Harley Quinn vol 2 #30 cover b? I didn’t find any on ebay either sold or currently for sale.

Swordmaster 1, which there’s been some chatter about here (not sure ebay is showing any heat at the moment), is part of Midtown’s $.99 sale.

Is that the 1:25 variant with poison ivy (2016)?

Or the 2017 B cover?

Yes the 2016 cover with Poison Ivy is the 1:25 ratio variant
The CHO is just a VAR cover

I like the Cho cover better. Be-witched homage?
