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

I missed it initially as he looks almost exactly like Blade.

next issue will introduce his buddy (another first appearance). His name is Inferno. :slight_smile:

He looks a bit taller


Starting to creep up in price. Not many copies listed and nothing cheap

When did that come out?

April 10, 2024

I dunno. If the first Mandalorian cover can be had for $10, hard to imagine this book sustaining any momentum.

I have to think it’s a combination of not being heavily ordered, and with their first appearance coming up in less than a month in the Ahsoka book…people are just rushing to eBay at the moment and its a supply/demand blip on the radar that will soon subside.

Proceed with caution. It’s a nice cover though.

Maybe now DV 20 sprouse is $10, but it peaked higher than that

There was FOMO buying before it came out because the cover was revealed right at FOC. Marvel actually extended FOC buy a day to take any last minute orders…however that was on a Sunday…

When it came out it held some value at around $20 for a while…then settled down. 2nd print (silver boarder) helped with that as well.

This is different in a lot of ways. But the characters are not popular like Mando/Baby Yoda. So I would be very surprised if a spike above what it is now lasted a month.

I think the supply will be favorable for this one. But, I could easily be wrong. And yes, these two aren’t as popular as grogu/mando

The Mando/Grogu cover is such an outlier for the reasons you mentioned. Hard to use that to predict the trajectory of another book without the same circumstances.

Early issues of Killadephia are moving and appreciating in price, not just the first issue.

I didn’t think #1 had much of a chance, due to pre FOC awareness

Seems like they are all appreciating in price at the same time. Prior to this week early issues were under $10. Hmmmmmm…

Good catch. I would have never thought to look at sales for this at this moment

I rarely see this series in bins/shops. Especially 2-8.
I make it a point to look and still haven’t seen them.
The #12 McFarlane is really cool. Thankfully I went heavy on that back then.

I never see those first 8 or 10 issues at shops.

Same here.
