Since this week is the dreaded fifth week, I did what I love best and bought really cheap silver age books. Here is what I got.

Keep an eye out for Abso-Bat 1 2nd prints. My shop didn’t even have their few copies on the shelf. All spoken for. I pulled one of these, and they are gorgeous. Just the DC logo on it.

Also, Monsters 1 2nd print didn’t show up for my shop. Had one pulled pre-FOC. They got zip.

I agree with the 2nd print Absolute Batman, my LCS didn’t order any in for the shelf only the FOC requests. My online go too store had 50 and they were gone in 10 min, maybe all one person but still. Haven’t found any in the wild today at all.

A ton selling on eBay. Price hasn’t really jumped yet, but I’d guess it will as the day goes on.

My shop has a ton but all priced at $12. I had my preorder copy of course.

#795

Your shop marks up the price on release day? Time to find a new shop.

My LCS still has the first prints on the shelf, they’re limiting to 1 per customer, rolling them out slowly.

#796

Limited options here unfortunately. I live & die by my prowess (and by the assistance of you all) when it comes to preorders.
I have a few shops a distance away I can typically find under the radar books or late bloomer type stuff but otherwise I deal with the hand I’m dealt.

Got 6 copies of Absolute Batman #1 2nd print , Deodato Variant & Foil Variant. Also picked up 3 copies of Monsters #1 2nd Print to name a few. Had to go to 3 different shops. Got several coming in the mail. That Amazing Spiderman #60 Adam Hughes cover is my favorite cover this week for some odd reason. :smiley: Happy New Comic Book Day/Hallows Eve.

I wasn’t going to mess with Absolute Batman 2nd prints, but I legitimately prefer the 2nd print A cover to the 1st print A cover. I got to my LCS 30 minutes after opening and A covers were already gone; they didn’t order a lot. Signs were up and some chat about the 3rd print.

I bought nothing, but, I did peruse the Absolute Batman 2nd prints listings on eBay. Didn’t buy any as I’d rather have some 


Mark Spears Monsters. I have splurged on some of those for the collection, but not the Kickstarter’s. Bought the 1A (x3), 1B, dual-sided foil, 1:25, 2nd print and sketch cover (x3). Also pre-ordered a 9.8 of the Dracula ‘dripping blood’ cover B as I think that one is going to be a tough one to grade. It’s also the lowest print of the ‘regular’ non-ratio, non-exclusive, non-foil, non-metal, non-whatever-else covers. We’ll see if the popularity continues.

The Kickstarter Frankenstein recently sold raw for $566.

Some bronze beauties and some books for potential flips.

I miss the action art on covers
 that kind of tells you what’s gonna go on on the inside. The whole posing for the camera covers suck!

Has anyone opened any of the polybag SIKTC #0 to see how “rare” the chainsaw variant is?

Is one more rare than the others?

Yes, the chainsaw variant is supposed to be more rare
