What is the better cover to own of the howling commandos of shield.  Personslly i think the reg cover is the nicest, but i assume the hip hop variant will be the most valuable as the cover is black?

My hunch would be the highest ratio variant, followed by the next highest, etc., and then the A cover amongst the order-alls. But who knows. Appealing cover art *can* make the regular cover more desirable than an incentive. Whether it *will*…

Reviewing some books over the last few weeks doing well. I usually stay a few days behind hot books
for both review and so I can find copies. :banana:

Walking Dead 191 - $8-14 book currently I wont reveal the spoiler, but I look for this book to continue to do well
if 192 does follow thru.

Thor 337 just smoking currently

Venom 3  strong sales in $20-30 range raw
Darkhawk 1 is now a $15 book in NM or better. Marvel Age 97 is climbing past $50 I sold too early.
Die Issues continue strong sales
Wraith Annihilation sells well and well as the Wraith series from IDW

Spider-man/DP 47 continues strong sales. 

Deceased went over well locally. Looks to be a good seller for readers. Variant collectors I hope you are buying
for your collections. Resale I don't think will hold value there. Marvel Zombies might see a bump afterward

Bloodstone 1 - Skyrocketing - I had at least a dozen copies many years ago and I sold a decade too early lol.

Savage Hulk 1 Ross Variant - Cheap Ross if you can find it

Avengers/JLA 4 - It should be obvious why this book is going up.

Spawn 240 just one to pick lately anything almost from 220-240ish and 190 to 200 seems to cook.
Newsstand sales in high grade do well as well of almost any Spawn issue. I just sold a few the 
last few days.

Cap 217 and Hulk 234 both have been strong sellers for me for years are really cooking
Exiles 3 continues good sales 

Ghost Rider 2 from Bronze doing well 1st Son of Satan

Carnage 5 from 2011 one to look for.

JSC books. I am doing buying his variants. When I can't get a copy or two 5 minutes after they go up then 
its not worth it to me and I will just buy reg covers. Some sleepers of his Southern Nightgown and 
Spookshow International 1 both are JSC covers that are harder to find.

Avengers 12 is a monster and yes I sold too early.

Hulk 168 1st Harpy is seeing some strong sale across grades.

Birds of Prey 1 Orcacle/Black Canary is a $50 book raw currently and I look for it to go higher

This book has been up and down multiple times; any particular reason this time?

JSC sales are insane.  I was all prepped before the release Saturday of his Black Cat 1 variants and still barely got checked out before they all went out of stock.  4 minutes after they went on sale they were gone.

Too bad that doesn't translate to previous work. Grrr!

That was pretty much the situation on the eve of the '90s collapse. People were so busy pouring money into the *next* big thing, that no one was spending money on the books already purchased exclusively for re-sale.

The 1:25 is the winner ... the hiphop variants are hit or miss and usually its contingent on whether they were print to incentives.  I think this will probably look a lot like Thanos 13 with the A cover selling for more than the 1:10 variants :screwy: but hopefully I'm wrong.  I also can't remember whether the hip hop variant is a 1:10 for 100% certain (I would have to look into that), but given the option to buy the A covers or the hiphop variants at or around the same price, I am still buying the A covers.  I've learned my lesson on too many other books (TT12, Naomi 1, Thanos 13, etc.).

There has been rumors circulating about her coming to Hulu, but there were no verified stories or anything substantial that I can find.  I think a lot of it is was tee leaf reading after the Hulu announcements and then piling on after it hit the CBSI top ten, but its an awesome book that I feel like a bone head for not having in my collection.

What numbers do newsstands run to, I thought they stopped around issues numbered in the low-to-mid 100s?

The highest I have seen are in the late 120s. I dont know when they stopped.

 I ddint mean that newsstands went that high  only they sell well in high grade due to scarcity on top of it.
