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

interestingly, yesterday the 12th was the start date of the green lantern tv
show shooting.

It’s funny you say that. I just randomly searched a few books (marginal modern keys) this morning and ALL the prices have been going up in the past month. I am trying to find the right balance between optimism and caution.

I see a lot of ebay auctions going for way over the equivalent buy now price (i.e. $250 bid with 1 hour to go but buy it now prices are $200 but still getting more bids).

To me that’s a sign of shill bidding.

“Far Sector,” has been a good comic. I kept one of each cover of #1 in case it blew up.

Guess this the wes book to look for according to Keycollector

How is it key? They really are overusing the word “key” in what it’s used for when it comes to comics… Geez!

Far Sector 1 (2nd Print-Red Cover) if you see it out in the wild good pickup.

They were selling for good money raw over the 1st prints and some 9.8s sold $200’ish last month.
So if the 1st prints raws at $30+ the 2nd prints prices most likely will adjust higher.

wth?? seriously

Yup. I have been accumulating the 1st print the past few months. Hardly ever see a 2nd print. Not sure if that is due to print run, or me just looking in the wrong places !

it’s nice but I also can’t keep track of everything. So, those books I had listed for $7 because nobody was buying them for months, are now bringing $12 and I lost a few extra bucks in profit when they are suddenly snapped up. Oh well, not gonna complain too much, I’m just glad inventory is going.

yeah i’ve been watching that one for quite a while now, there were a few copies a week or 2 ago on ebay for 100 bucks obo and they were all bought at the same time and then someone reposted a copy for like 600 bucks

Its cause Ross Richie reposted a sale that may or may not be legit that was like $800

Anyone know anything about this

Jenny Zero isn’t Image, it’s Dark Horse. Geez Key, get the publisher right before sending out notifications… :wink:

@RipCityGamer you know anything about the recall ?

The major error is the book is from dark horse but that’s an error on KCC. I have one in my sub box at my lcs. It’s available on tfaw Jenny Zero #1
