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

Are these your sales or your orders?

The main event?

All sales today. Sold a total of 6 Monsters books today and two #1’s yesterday.

I splurged and bought a Monsters #3 Metal cover (Jaws homage) on Keenspot. It’s for my collection and think it’s going to pop visually (of course, I could be wrong).

Also got my CGC 9.8 Monsters #1 cover B (Dracula Blood cover). It looks sharp and displays very well (lowest print of the #1’s and mostly black cover).

While not necessarily heating up, there are some great covers for collecting!

Wish there was a non-metal version of that Jaws cover. Its pretty great.

When did this book Doctor Aphra #3 40th Anniversary Variant heat up so much? The regular A cover commands a decent price as well it seems.

Seems like this one is valued higher than the coveted Leia cover.

I’m confused, and I don’t mean this as an attack or argument or anything but…. We’re supposed be mad when a retailer jacks up the price of books beyond cover unless it’s a ratio, but we also don’t want a retailer to undercut the secondary market?

because it was the first one and they first chuck of these were match exceed your orders

its also 1st app of magna, alpha’s girlfriend and empire officer. when they do an aphra show she will be a big part of it. the ratio also is quite expensive

Depends on who you are. Are you trying to scramble for a book because you don’t FOC or do you have copies that you FOC’ed? Those that FOC lose when a shop sandbags a book by limiting to 1 and having stock take ages to deplete. Those that don’t FOC and just Wednesday warrior pillage shops would love for copies to be available. Even then, there’s not much room for a flip due to shipping. So, there’s no winning for scramblers or FOCers.

I’m not holding my breath………

We FOC ourselves over sometimes, with all this FOCing, don’t you think?

Well, MCS had 75 copies of Monsters #2 (creature feature) on Ebay and even at one per order have sold out. They are also sold out on their main site. Midtown and Grahm Cracker comics are also sold out. Not bad for it only being out one day. Does anyone have an idea what the print tun on this variant might be?

3,830. I own about 22 of them myself. :grin:

Everyone is making money off that title. Mark is. Keenspot is. Twelve of my last 14 sales have been Monsters.

I haven’t made thousands, but I have made hundreds. I didn’t go in on it big either.

I didn’t go huge but more than I normally order on FOC. Again not thousands but hundreds Wednesday alone.

I thought MCS sold 75 copies of the C cover of Monsters…hard to believe only 14 (at most) were through ebay.

What’s the cutoff for this list? Wednesday 11:59 pm EST?
