Surely they do a second printing of ASM 55 in red, right? Am I right? I have to be right. 

Silver metallic ink on the second print, gold metallic ink on the third... 

[bellrules]

Very 90’s. That would make it very apropos

It takes time for CGC to come out with/change label listings.  

FWIW, a couple of LCS owners I know that pay attention are suggesting that Death Metal 7 may be the book to have for the Future State 1st appearances. We will see soon.

Your sources were right. Grabbed 4 copies.

Every time I read something about the dissolving of the sequel trilogy I feel giddy inside.  Would take some big sack from Disney to do it, but significant sack was already shown with the Mando finale, IMHO.

Exactly!

Never forget that the buck stops at Bob Iger who has total control of what is greenlit: he was the one who greenlit the "Disney Trilogy", Mandalorian etc; also let's too not forget that Kathleen Kennedy's contract runs out in 2021

But still curious about High Republic Adventures #1 numbers, also the fact it seems to be VERY under-looked compared to High Republic #1 (variants) ~

FOC hasnt passed yet. Still another week. I wouldnt say the book is "under-looked" just yet.

I tend to buy cheap so High Republic passed my cost range along time ago. So appreciation is what I am looking for.  When your initial cost is that high I think collectors will be looking for cheaper alternatives. Its how I look for value the same way with less risk.

I get what you mean - hence why Milestone is such a perfect option: cheap and incredibly low print runs

Yes that is my philosophy for 20 years selling in this hobby. Others take different routes and there is no right answer. 
For me its always about watching cost compared to how much appreciation the book will achieve. That and I don't 
need top dollar on my books because I am cost efficient as I can be.

Astonishing X-Men 6 has been respectably increasing in sold prices. Wouldn’t say it’s hot but it’s held it’s value in recent time

Exactly. I would not be surprised if the print run on IDW HR Adventures 1 is higher than the Marvel HR 1. Stores were caught asleep at the wheel with HR 1 since the Disney/Marvel promotional machine did not start up until after FOC. As a result, even some other modern speculators I know locally whiffed on it as well (and they can buy from me at the inflated prices  ). One that I talked to on Wednesday who was chasing addition ASM 55s missed and is planning to run to LCSs at the open on Wednesday to try to find any copies he can.  

There is a starwars.com/lucasfilms publishing livestream on January 4th that will push the hype even higher - and I believe that is before the HR Adventures FOC. This should be the highest print run IDW book in recent memory.

Most people don't realize that you can get decent discounts from your LCS on bulk modern pre-orders. Some owners do not like doing that, but others realize that providing a worthwhile discount to the speculator crowd on pre-orders helps them to get a better discount across the board. Those are the ones that get my $$$
