Trade Paperbacks (and Hard Covers) Heating Up!

When I got my copy, it was $27. Paid for it with Amazon points so got it for free. Worth it even at these prices.

That series is so freaking good. Glad to see people are taking notice of it.

Brubaker is one of the greats and he and Phillips are a great duo when working together.

I bought 3 hard covers for $30 total with the intention of reading all three. Velvet, being one of the three, I knew had some resale value. I put it up on eBay at $75 and planned to read. It sold within 24 hours.

Brubaker and Phillips make great stuff. “The Fade-Out,” is my favorite of their collaborations I have read, with, “Sleeper,” being second, perhaps.

Well, the last few praises of Brubaker haven’t aged well…

Hate the creator, like their work though. If it’s true, that’s a damn shame.

Smh.

I find it hard to believe that these days someone would treat others like that knowing it’ll eff up their entire career and livelihood.

Some people are just dirtbags in real life and no amount of fame or money will buy them class. In most cases it just makes them a worse human being.

Well, we all know money changes people for the worse in a lot of cases.

Another one to hunt for. I’ve had really good luck selling trades lately. Marketplace has been the place for me, as I think far fewer collectors/flippers are after these.

I am an Omnibus/Graphic Novel/TPB collector more nowadays.

I got Wolverine Omni. Vol. 1 sealed that I am debating to let go. Lots of collected books go out of print and then later are hard to find so the going rate is so much higher. I often go for Covers i like on omnis but a lot of time DM (Direct Market) demand a higher premium going rate.

Aliens Omni. Vol. 2 look that one up…
The book of DOOM omnibus. The price on that one.
Took me forever to catch an affordable Secret Wars Hickman Omni cause i missed that boat at 1st… also Batman Shaman GN… had to wait on that one… there are plenty of them … Ghost Rider Epic collection vol. 1 and Star Wars Clone Wars Epic collection vol 2… wooo good luck grabbing those at an affordable price right now.

I post my gn omnibus pickups on my gram.

Mainly what i get that week so not really stuffnin demand right away.
