I remembered it as a deleted end credit scene as well.

Edit: At the time I thought, hey that suit could work in a movie. On the Liefeld part, is this what he’s up to these days?

And one of Liefeld’s “creations” was a Wolverine/Puck ripoff named… Troll.

Okay maybe I’m the only one in the dark, but what is the shade that Liefled is throwing?

#6680

I don’t think any shade. Just being the idiot that he is.

#6681

Haha, Liefeld isn’t smart enough to throw actual shade… :wink:

He just posts BS rumors.

#6683

He says he doesn’t sell comics and never has…I have never sold any comics either despite having collected for 47 years…I still have everything I have ever bought…I guess Jim and I are both rare.

Strange Academy 1 (Cover A) raw copies cheapest listing near $200
while 9.8 copies for the month of April have sold between $350 and $450.

Is the market overvaluing the raw copies or undervaluing the 9.8 copies? :man_shrugging:

Cause there is a pretty big disconnect there it seems for now.

Doesn’t the market always overvalue 9.8 grades? I kid! But really tho…

Most recent example a couple of months SIKTC 1 Cover A raws were $500ish while 9.8s where close to $1500. Then the 9.8s were way undervalued… :rofl:

Now prices have readjusted.

Guess everything has it’s ups and downs in the spec cycle.

Strange Academy 1 is undervalued. It’s a pandemic book and it’s nearly impossible to find a cover A now.

I’d say the 9.8’s of cover A are undervalued and the 9.8’s of the Campbell variant are criminally undervalued.

I’d also say you’re unlikely to find a 9.8 candidate for either book raw. I’ve gotten a bunch of 9.6’s after a press…

Let’s not forget about the Ramos wraparound cover for #1. Features Doyle and Emily on front cover with everyone else on the back. That one, in my opinion, is overlooked and undervalued.

$30 tops (raw)? Not much. Same goes for 2nd print.

So has the potential to go up IF the spec pans out in the long run.
