    CHEW, from Image Comics

    Man, I really need to read this...

    Was sent an Image First #1 from a fellow boardie, and really enjoyed it.

     

    What would a full run cost me nowadays? Is it pretty high? I'm more of a floppy guy than a TPB guy.

     

    So much to read, so little time...

     

    prob between 250-300 depends

    Just read the full series after hearing many good things from fellow boardies. I think I finished in about 3-4 days its one of those books you dont want to put down.

     

    For those of you who have finished, id be interested to know if you were satisfied with how it ended?

     

    Also just came across this video which is pretty neat, hopefully they go ahead and make a full on movie soon!

    Are you saying the emperor has no clothes?

    I have no idea what this means.

     

    The market was in dire need of correction and in the long term a correction is a good thing.

    Yes you are correct here.

     

    The only thing that creates long term value in a comic are collectors.

    I would agree.

     

    The books that are collected will maintain their value long term.

    Sure.

     

    The books that came out recently that have a collector base are not cooling off, they are holding steady or rising.

    On this point I would have to say I disagree with you. The books that have recently come out within the last few months/year(s), in regards to moderns, I do not see them increasing or holding steady at this point in time. Granted some are and some are doing very well, there are some books out there that are not doing as well as they once have. These titles still have fan bases and are still being collected but their prices have either dropped, or are coming down. Some comics that I am referring to are, Nowhere men - pretty sure they have seen a drop in overall secondary market pricing ( Wether its due to the delay in book 5 or the influx of many variants or the current time, I think all play a part) Revival, I believe has seen a drop in prices from what it was once pulling. Chew has seen a recent drop in prices as well. The extremely recent image books are not currently on the rise either.

     

    I can be wrong though and am open to your opinion and in fact welcome it, what books are you referring to that are currently experiencing a rise?

     

    The thing that has changed is that speculators are gunshy and are not able to sell to other speculators right now.

    Probably

     

    It's hard to convey tone in writing but I was actually agreeing with you. As to what books are weathering the storm, I was thinking of Rachel Rising, Manhattan Projects, Saga and Peter Panzerfaust. They have all dipped a bit since their peaks but they have not completely fallen off the cliff. PP and RR still have some support from potential TV shows but MP is just plain awesome and is building a solid fan base. Saga is down too but it still has a fan base that is keeping it from falling to the floor. The books that built up too fast didn't have time to build a fan base proportionate to the initial speculator demand and are falling fast, but there are still some gems out there.

     

    Good points man (thumbs u

    The Emperor's New Clothes is a Danish fairy tale written by Hans Christian Andersen and first published in 1837.

     

    The expressions The Emperor's new clothes and The Emperor has no clothes are often used with allusion to Andersen's tale. Most frequently, the metaphor involves a situation wherein the overwhelming (usually unempowered) majority of observers willingly share in a collective ignorance of an obvious fact, despite individually recognising the absurdity. A similar twentieth-century metaphor is the Elephant in the room.

     

    "The Emperor Wears No Clothes" or "The Emperor Has No Clothes" is often used in political and social contexts for any obvious truth denied by the majority despite the evidence of their eyes.

    The modern market appears to be correcting itself, generally there are lows in the summer months however this seems to be much more drastic and it may not simply be the timing, many in the modern market think this is actually a market correction and Revival is not the only book experiencing this drop in pricing.
