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

It was a $30 book a year ago when we talked about it. It just keeps creeping up as supply dwindle.

I think the announcement of a potential cartoon series for the energon universe recently gave it a boost.

One to watch for today. Lots of sales and asking prices are creeping up.

Seeing as how these muppets variants popped after FOC for this book….and how popular infinity gauntlet homages typically are…I agree.

You might be right on this one. Midtown and GrahmCracker are already sold out. Mycomicshop still has them for cover right now, though.

I got a nose for these things :grin:

I avoided any Disney variant that also had a b&w ratio

No miss piggy gauntlet at my main LCS at open. Don’t feel like hunting other shops today.

Saw the me today and decided to look it up seeing the first print is a $50 book…

I have at least one

I went to Disney World this summer and we went to Hollywood Studios for the final day of Muppets in 3D and it was crazy how many people were there. Tons of people dressed up as well. I love the muppets, but didn’t realize how big of a deal they are to some people.

Glad I preordered a set of the Muppets variants. Figured it would be a nice flip as a full set of the 10 covers but looks like it might be more profit than I thought!

There have been 7 sales after this one less than $10, most at cover. But I think just about all ā€œcheapā€ copies are now off eBay.

There is still one copy at $10 (shipped) then it jumps to $15 plus shipping (just checked…the guy has 8 copies…wouldn’t surprise me if the price goes up with each copy sold).

So looks promising. Usually I find prices start to spike around Friday if a book isn’t already hot prior to release date…I think that’s when many of the people realize it’s not at their local shop (they may not get there until End of the week), hot lists start reporting and FOMO sets in.

For us who hold copies the challenge becomes when to jump in….i have two…but if I had 5 I’d start off with a copy I’d list one to start getting some of my money back and see how it trends.
