    Selling my Amazing Spider-Man Collection...

    Hey, everyone,

    I'm set to record my first E.P. during the summer, and I really need the funds to make that happen. I haven't posted on the boards much lately, but I figured I'd list some books from my collection on here first before eBay. I hate to sell these books, but I know I can't afford to record unless I do. It's definitely bittersweet. Like I stated, I haven't been active much with buying/selling, so if I'm way off with any of my prices, a kind PM is appreciated. All of these books were purchased by respectable board members. Thank you for your time.

     

    I'm also willing to work out package deals or selling all together.

     

    Rules:

    1) No HOS or PLs

    2) Shipping is included to U.S.

    3) PayPal preferred

  3. Extensive article about the progress of Suicide Squad at the box office, and projections what to expect.

     

    FORBES.COM: 'Suicide Squad' 3rd Weekend Drop Is 2nd-Lowest For Genre This Year

     

    Suicide Squad fell 52.1% on its third weekend of release, taking $20.8 million and raising its domestic cume to $262.4 million. Worldwide, the film topped $575 million this weekend after 17 days of release. Meaning it is certain to top $600 million next weekend, likely ending the weekend at around $615-620 million, depending on how well it holds on the weekdays, with a Japanese opening still to come in September. While the press coverage of the film continues to seek new ways to insist the numbers are bad, weak, or otherwise a sign of failure for the DCU, the latest numbers tell a different story and now make it clearer that the film will wind up with a strong final worldwide box office cume. Lets look at the numbers more closely, and talk about what they really mean for the film today and down the road

     

    The 52.1% third-weekend domestic drop for Suicide Squad is the second-best hold among this years six superhero feature film releases. Deadpool, the only superhero film with a lower third-weekend decline than Suicide Squad, fell just 44.9% on its junior weekend in release. Of the remaining superhero films, Captain America: Civil War had a 54.7% fall, X-Men: Apocalypse dropped 56.6%, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice took a 54.5% dip, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2: Out of the Shadows fell 63.5%. We could note that those other films faced third-weekend competition from the likes of Finding Dory, Angry Birds, The Conjuring 2, and Warcraft for example; but then wed also need to note Suicide Squad has faced daily competition from the Olympic Games as well as Jason Bourne, Sausage Party, and Petes Dragon to varying degrees, while playing during a month where box office attendance is typically smaller than the bigger summer months.

     

    Suicide Squads third weekend domestic gross is also the seventh-biggest August weekend of all time for any film at this point or later during their domestic runs, and only five movies have ever had bigger August weekends at comparative points, those being The Sixth Sense, The Blair Witch Project, Guardians of the Galaxy, The Dark Knight (which had two August weekends higher than Suicide Squads third weekend take), and The Dark Knight Rises.

     

    And estimates on Japan and overall.

     

    How much can Suicide Squad take in Japan? To oversimplify and make a lot of assumptions, I think the tone and style of the film seeming similar to a cross between Deadpool and Guardians of the Galaxy, the presence of Batman and the Joker, plus Katanas presence in marketing will help the films prospects. Im betting its capable of pulling down roughly $15+ in Japan. Id guess itll take at least $10 million in Japan on the lower end of predictions, and maybe $20 million on the higher end, while the pre-Japan box office cume will be at least $650 million and possibly as high as $660+ million, for a final low/high tally of around $660/680 million worldwide and a mid-range of $670 million.

     

     

    estimate is too low.

     

    Now imagine if Warner Bros. was able to pull off a miracle, and break down the barrier with China? It's a pipe dream, as I have read some articles where they do not like the Enchantress character due to magic concerns. So it would go counter to their cultural teachings.

     

    But maybe - maybe - it comes true.

     

    Many people are saying that China might let the people watch Suicide Squad, many people are saying this, its true. Its a real shame. I think this movie would do big numbers there, yuuuuge. The biggest numbers, really. I know big numbers, I know all the biggest numbers, trust me. But I don't think its fair, our movie arrangement with China, they don't let us show American made movies there, but we eat tons of Chinese food here in America. That's so unfair. Sad.

     

    lol

  4. If it would've continued coming out regularly, it could've been one of the biggest books. It was BY FAR my favorite modern series to read each month. Now I only pick it up when I'm in a shop and realize I haven't read the newest issue yet.
