Modern Comics Heating Up (Those With Potential Too) (Part 2)

I was surprised at how much I enjoyed it.

Remember last year when there was the Godzilla and King Kong variants that had sound when you opened the cover?

I think the unholy grails should do something similar, but play Monster Mash when opened…

Probably would be too easy to single them out in a polybag though…

those were actually cool.

They could of done for the Batman blind bags playing the original TV show theme song, haha

I guess I need to start looking for Red Hood trades.

The only book I preordered for the week. It’s a beauty.

That April as Casey is getting a bit of buzz for sure.

I don’t expect this book to catch any heat on the aftermarket, but it’s just a cool cover. April O’Neil as Casey Jones (well, taking on his role). Why not? Dirty D Cover-of-the-Week!

A few sales approaching $20. Asking price is there now.

Took me 4 attempts to put in an order online through comic hub…it’s a local LCS that I pick up books from.

Each time it rejected me as I submitted the order and “logged me out”. I’m sure I’ll have 4 transactions for $3.99 on my credit statement now.

I had actually pre-ordered a copy. Just want an extra for the PC should I decide to sell.

Thanks @EricR , but I do not understand the current comic market…what-so-ever

Random Dan Mora covers, Batman Long Halloween Last Halloween books are going up in value, random tpb’s are going up in value, TMNT books are going up in value, etc.

I thought the market was in a downward trajectory. Economy is crap. People are selling collections. But yet, people are blowing money on these books

Seriously, I just dont get it…theres no logic

Maybe Im one foot already out of speculating/collecting…

TPBs once they go out of print go for good money. It’s random, but setting up an eBay search and checking it periodically has helped me identify some books before heading my LcS

Its strange, because people can just buy the single issues for much less.

Yeah, or go to their library read on their library app. I don’t get it, but I’ll gladly take their money. There are some Marvel Star Wars Legends Epic Collections that do real well. Think The Menace Revealed Vol. 1 and Vol. 2 in particular still do pretty well

How do you all find hot books via ebay? This group is so damn awesome at sharing that info. For me, I tend to stumble upon the hot books, and it makes me think I’m missing a ton.

For example, Last Halloween 2. That’s up to $30-40, and I had no idea. Do you just scour eBay recent sales, or is there a smarter way to do it?

I set up a search for recently sold modern books, recently sold Star Wars books, and something similar for TPBs that include phrases like “OOP”
