Who is the guy on X-men #12?

Yes, I noted that as well, they are repopulating the summoners in preparation for a massive incursion.

You are correct regarding X-men 2 they can price however they want it.
Itā€™s their books.

What is the over/under of when X-Men 12 magically comes back in stock for $15+? :grinning:
Very soon I would thinkā€¦
The game continues.

Actually the 2 pages are different in that in X-Men #2 they refer to the Summoners of Arrako and in #12 they specifically state the Summoners of Amenth. I am certain that the High Summoner is telling HIS version of a tale and purposefully leaving out some key details. Like how Genesis did not actually battle Annihilation. Why? Because they are one in the same. That is what the tarot card in the FCBD is referencing. I believe that the High Summoner was tasked with bringing Apocalypse back to Arakko in order to give him a beatdown by the family he left. IMO of course. :rofl::joy:

Oh, I didnā€™t notice the Arrako vs Amneth in the data pages. Thanks for clearing that up.

Glad I jus scored the X-men 2 Wolverine for $8 grabbed 2 copies


Then scored some 2nd prints 1-6 for $11. Well see how this plays out.

Good luck with actually receiving them. I scored a couple dozen Sentry #4 & #5 and EVERY seller refunded my orders.

Thankfully the few I managed to get were early enough that the price hadnā€™t gone up on eBay yet so they all got shipped. Although I did have one seller send me a snarky message on eBay telling me to enjoy taking advantage of him and buying it so cheap.

My Mercari shipped already. Thankfully I catch the people that arent spec watching and are just offloading books.

I dont get how itā€™s taking advantage of? Like today Sep 22nd I post a book for a 7 day auction and on the 6th day news breaks that book is hot important to future stories etc. You buy on that 5th day for a low price I dont get how thatā€™s taking advantage of. You bought it at the market value for that day

Youā€™re not wrong, but some people arenā€™t great haha

My sentry order still pending. Not expecting to get it. I emailed the store yesterday asking about the status of my transaction (it had been a week).

Immediately after I emailed I got a shipping notice, but details show that all that happened was that the USPS shipping label was created.

I then got an email from their customer service later in the evening saying that the package will be shipped this week.

I donā€™t think the folks that created the label/emailed me back know whatā€™s up, but I am expecting that the individual that pulls the books to fulfill the order will, and that that is when things will change.

Impatiently waitingā€¦

I ordered a Sentry #4 before pretty early in the game and still ended up getting the ole ā€œWe checked and must have made a mistake/couldnā€™t find it, blah, blah, blahā€. I did end up getting the inexpensive #5.

Relative to the topicā€¦I grabbed two copies of the Xmen #2 variant for very cheap awhile ago when we were all discussing it.

I passed on the 1:25 I had a chance at. Guess Iā€™ll look at the shop tomorrow and see if it survived the weekend or not.

Stopped using midtown a month ago for the reasons you listed.

Yes I remember how annoyed you were at them cancelling orders while you were refreshing all day to get a chance at that variant. They cancelled one of my reg cover order also.

BTW thank you very much for all your posts have learned a bunch and was able to secure
some cheap X-men 2 1:25 copies before the hype!

Lim 2099 variant of X-Men #2 is still very cheap.

Lmaoā€¦too funnyā€¦he deserves a snarky ā€˜cant wait to do business with you againā€™ msg. :joy:

Thatā€™s just unnecessaryā€¦ the seller is in control of his listings and prices on such listings. Itā€™s not taking advantage if you fail to update your own prices to market value. Shame on him, I hope a pigeon drops some turds on his head for being a total turd blossom the next time heā€™s outsideā€¦ (and I hope itā€™s a pigeon with chronic diarrhea if they can get such a thingā€¦ )

Over a decade ago a friend had a bachelor party in AC and while on the boardwalk, a seagull let loose right into his eye socket. No joke, it was like his eye caught the liquid bird poop perfectly and it just settled in there as he looked up at the sky in shock. Iā€™ll never forget itā€¦
