Lets not forget the MJ/Black Cat issue I think 606? Iconic covers have staying power. But as Blob pointed out 601 is there for obvious reasons. jsilverjanet 1 Link to post Share on other sites
littledoom Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 53 minutes ago, the blob said: Tex 880 is a strikingly different cover, creative, artsy, classic (at this point), etc. I get it. Not sure why that makes it a $200-250 book raw, but the market has decided. Jock can be hit or miss. With that said, what pushes some cover into this sort of territiry, or even $50 territory, is a wonder to me. There are some killer classic covers out there. This was supposed to be one, but it never seemed to get past the initial hump it his off selling for a few bucks more than issues around it: The highest I think I’ve seen this sell for is $25-30 on eBay. If and when Sabertooth makes it to the MCU I can see this selling for around $50+ It’s a great cover and I love it.

One book that hasn't taken off is the Batman/Spawn & Spawn/Batman books. Probably a ton of them out there and supply meets any demand that currently exists. littledoom 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Popular Post Broke as a Joke Posted January 11 Popular Post Share Posted January 11 Marvel is going to milk that Spiderman 55 cover for all its worth. By the end of the year every possible color combination will be released. When it's all said and done the 8th printing pink and green variant will be the one worth the most money because it will be the ugliest and lowest ordered...

I know people love him but JSC is just not my cup of tea. Unfortunately I need 601/606/607 for my run so I'm going to have to shell out for them.

I would really love to see JRJR and Scott Hanna work together again. Hanna's coloring really lit up Romita Jr's pencils. They were a dream team during that ASM run with Straczynski E: For the uninitiated I actually want to try and pick up 9.8's of all of these covers. And they're all hovering right around $50 right now, should be pretty cheap for a while Edited January 11 by BoogieWoogie Link to post Share on other sites
Popular Post Awax Posted January 12 Popular Post Share Posted January 12 My prediction for the #55 issue is it will end up like the 9/11 book a book that will always be wanted for people’s collection. it’s not a key But it’s memorable 500Club, fastballspecial, jsilverjanet and 4 others 6 1 Link to post Share on other sites
