SuperBird Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 I obsessively collected all Grendel everything up through 2010 or so, then sold it all away. Luckily last year I bought Primer and Grendel 1, but now I miss them all. Such a great series. grendelbo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Primer 2 in 9.4 just sold for $2333. Looks like my dreams of upgrading my 9.6 WP set (Primer 2, Grendel 1-3) to 9.8 is not gonna happen. First world problems 🤣.

heartened Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 Netflix series looks like it may be good! Can't wait. And yes the books will definitely see a bump now, and of course if the series is good and gains new fanbase then all the better. IMO well deserved, and about time. Wagner deserves some spotlight for all his years on this series. Mage would be awesome too BTW! mrwoogieman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrwoogieman Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 Looking forward to this as well! I forget when I got my Primer 2 but I do recall getting the Grendel 1-3 issues from Harley Yee at a Big Apple Con back in 2005 or so. They all reside in my core collection, along with the oversized Comico trade, the 1-40 run, and a few other Grendel goodies! Plus the Mage issues, of course!

The original Devil by the Deed from 1985 with the larger format was beautiful too. Highly recommend getting that original compilation/version.

Popular Post Sauce Dog Posted October 1, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 1, 2021 (edited) Look what arrived in the mail today! This was the copy I bought raw last year after finding it at an estate sale. I was only looking because a friend was on the hunt for it but never ended up buying it off me afterwards, so I figured might as well get it signed and pressed - and boy, did a press help it! I was honestly surprised by the grade, and personally clocked it at being 9.0 tops but I'm happy to have been so very wrong edit: aaannndd I'm out. Less than 24 hours in the club before I've been made an offer I could not refuse Edited October 2, 2021 by Sauce Dog SuperBird, ADAMANTIUM, whetteon and 3 others 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

comiconxion Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 There’s always been a rumor that there was a 2nd printing of Primer #2 that was not labeled as such (similar to Shuriken #1). Anyone know how to identify the difference between a 1st and 2nd printing Primer #2? I’m not sure CGC recognizes the difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can certainly ask Matt if that ever happened but I think we would have known back in the day. What year did you hear that occurred? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comiconxion Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 Similar to Shuriken, I heard they had pretty much immediately gone back to print with it because it sold better than expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
valiantman Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 Some sellers on eBay are mentioning Comico Primer #1 as having a preview/ad for Primer #2 (Grendel cover). It doesn't. There's nothing Grendel in Primer #1. grendelbo and whetteon 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grendelbo Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 +1 I've seen this too on Key Collectors. I don't know where this is coming from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
