Because the audience was so small and the issues were already on low print runs at comic shops, let alone on the newsstand. There weren’t too many people buying Supreme #45 or Eternal Warrior #50, it surprised me that Image and Valiant even bothered selling these outside of comic shops.

Thanks everyone. I’ll probably go the route of breaking it up and selling individually then. I wouldn’t ever sell this at auction, but I was thinking BIN for the lot and unsure on price. I guess single BIN it will be.

Question for everyone. I’m well aware of the newsstand market, and I’ve been collecting comics for 25+ years. I’ve actually been identifying newsstand editions for over 10 years, long before most people even knew what a newsstand edition was. But I have recently run into a large collection of solely newsstand edition comics that comprises about 15 long boxes. Any idea what I could get if I sold all 15 boxes in a single lot? I’m thinking eBay since Heritage and ComicLink seem to focus on single, graded issues or very small lots. Background: I’ll try to do my best to describe the lot. The seller used to be a magazine distributor and had a giant back stock of comics and magazines. So everything is new oldstock. Grades vary, as his oldstock was kept in apple boxes. So anything from VG to NM/MT. But most are high grade VF to NM/MT. The brunt of the books date 1990-1994, but there are plenty from 1995-1999. I pulled 8 copies of Heir to the Empire #1 and 5 copies of Batman Beyond #1. Other than that, most books are commons with only some being recognizable soft-keys (X-Force #1, Spider-Man 2099 #1, Spectacular Spider-Man #200, Superman #75, etc.). Publishers are Marvel, DC, Dark Horse, Image, Archie, Valiant, and Malibu. There are plenty of kids books ranging from Archie vs. the Punisher to Beauty and the Beast, Little Mermaid, TMNT, Biker Alice From Mars, Cowboys of Moo-Mesa, etc. But it’s a lot of random commons such as Marvel Summer Special 1992. I’m actually surprised that some of these Non-Marvel and DC issues even hit the newsstand. Random later copies of Brigade and Bloodshot. There are a few issues of Spawn, but all are in the first 20 issues. All have UPC logos. Any idea what this is worth in today’s market?
