Oh That KCC…

The UK comics hit shelves a week before their cover date, my understanding. So actually UK 78 has a release date of 9/6.

Transformers the a movie #1 has a release date is 9/2.

So literally days apart!

Thanks for the heads up on this. Will be looking out for both books now.

I admit several years ago I bought into this “Reach” spec and have like 3 or 4 copies of this book sitting in a “dead spec” box somewhere…I bought for cover or less.

Time to bust these out and see if I can get my money back!

Are these “usual suspects” in the room with us?

It was really good. I had it as my small press pick. I got one copy and did not manipulate any markets. I am fixing horse raises though.

I also got a little chuckle when kcc mentioned the usual suspects. Surely KCC is not including Nick and his BFFs Dinesh, ComicTom, Gem mint, Nerdygirl, Bolo as the usual suspects.

… and Epic Nation

So that’s why you told me to go so heavy on number 53, “Greasy Joe,” at the track and said to thank you later with a 10% cut! The check is in the mail, by the way.

This one I am trying to figure out.

Buy this issue because Mephisto’s son first appears in this book, and regardless if he shows up in a show or movie, if his dad makes an appearance it’s gonna go up.

That’s stupid logic but seems to be the way of the state of comics because of picks like this.

Guess I shouldn’t have bought Mephisto’s first appearance a while back and spent my money on this one.

You know the stupid thing is people will go out and buy it. They’re not recommending his daughter Mephistas first appearance in Dr Strange #6 or the GOTG Issue that has another first?!

I know this is the “beat up on Key Collector” space, but have to admit, the new version of the app has some nice features. I LOVE that they added non-keys with a toggle, the ability to show variants independently, and the improved “Issues” search. It feels more comprehensive now.

Agreed!
When the app is NOT used for creating FOMO, it is an excellent app unto itself.

I have no idea how I’m suppose to update it. I go to Google play and there’s nothing there. Can’t find any update settings in the app.

I’ve continued to defend Key Collector as great for when you’re digging in back issues and don’t know a lot about a series and want to check about an issue.

I have said a million times, use all the tools at your disposal. I still use it when hunting, use Covrprice more, but still will pull it up when hunting back issues and such.

Meant to post this earlier but it’s been a crap day at work. Fact checking KCC again.

Before spoilers

And after

I noticed KCC’s Keys this week had some info that you’d only know if you had spoilers like those posted on CHU last night.

They’re never going to give Anthony credit. It’s a shame, really, considering how much time he dedicates to getting out the spoilers as well as all the other stuff.
