New Comic Book Day

Now that copies are showing up on eBay, I’ve yet to see a numbered copy in the 300s or higher.

Doesn’t that seem a bit odd…?

#262 looks like the high so far…

More stores will be getting copies in the next few weeks

Why is that? Did they not ship them with the regular book?

No. I dont know the reason. I just know shops, including MyComicShop wont get the 1:100 until February 7 from Diamond

Maybe they are still signing copies. :thinking:

Only 4 New Listings (since the above post).

What book is this again?

GHOST MACHINE #1 1:100 SIGNED & NUMBERED VARIANT is the book people are referring to.

But who are the parents…?

Azari ?

So this Wednesday could be a huge day at the comic shop.

Ultimate Black Panther 1
Batman 142 (Joker year 1)
Thundercats 1
Beneath the Trees 3

Could be busy at the shop and I’m expecting a lineup at the door before opening. Any of you guys going to your shop on opening and doing the Wednesday warrior thing? Would be great to get to know how your stores are dealing with Ultimate Black Panther 1.

I have covers of Black Panther #1 coming from Midtown

I have 3x Cover A at my LCS.

I am hitting a shop near my office at lunch for more BP #1

Gonna be a race.

You all really think UPB is going to hit? I know there have been a bunch of spendy pre-sales, but won’t people be a little more prepared this time? I swear, these are all going to be dollar bin books in 3 years, but if we all can make a few bucks in the meantime, let’s go!

I am not worried about 3 years from now, I am looking ahead to sales this week and next week and keeping one copy for myself. We shall see, it is hitting similar to Ultimate Spider-Man. I sold two copies of the undesirable Ultimate Spider-Man 1 Klein variant today. Its a good cover but the least valuable.

I’ve had the 1:10 listed for a while. Nothing. I sold my A cover. I just have a B and 2 1:10s now. I might list the B cover.

For what it’s worth the sickness at economics in comics has read UBP 1 and he says it’s not at the same level as USM 1 story wise…

Ah man. And I was looking forward to a good story…

I’m gonna get the details here wrong, but I was listening to the Comic Book Club podcast from last weds. They were reviewing Avengers Twilight 2. They mentioned issue 3, and apparently the inker or colorist or someone on the creative team said it was the best single Avengers comic they’ve read in 25-ish years.

Take that for what it is (probably some misinformation on my part), but issue 1 might continue to do well if the series stays strong.

There are several covers that are just not moving. People are weird. If I was looking for one for investment, I would get an A or B, if I was looking to get one to read, I would get the 1:10 or the Klein

I thought issue 1 and 2 of Avengers Twilight was phenomenal. Zdarsky needs to nail the finish. If he does that this could be an all time classic. Excited to hear issue 3 is going to be great. The first 2 issue were already great and it’s a set up issue.
