I don't think Stallone is playing Nova but the question that he might be and is that helping interests? Are sale prices increasing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And just now has been debunked in terms of Stallone. But, yes, it helped sales of Nova, maybe not for increased prices but more sold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scooter99 Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Wow, 2 Marvel Premiere 28's in 9.8 sold this year. $1,625 and $2,000. That is a massive leg up from the last gpa sales in 2014. I remember Bob Storms had a 9.8 at Wondercon back in 2009 or 2010. I think he had it priced at $175 or thereabouts. I settled for his better presenting 9.6 with a perfect wrap.

There is slight but enough variation between 9.6s and 9.8s based on the grading on any given day to make chasing the $$$ worth it if you want to.

Broke as a Joke Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 I would be grabbing any cheap copies I could right now of any of the main Guardians of the Galaxy first appearances. 3 movies and after the box office comes in for Volume 2 they could be arguably Marvels top cinematic draw. These characters are becoming household names in front of everyone's eyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tales To Astonish #13 (1st Groot) is not cheap even in lower grades, with top grade being 9.2. The others are not worth it as they are too common in 9.8. So much for the Guardians.

I remember being scoffed at by a particular clerk as I was buying their two copies of MSH #18 for $10 total, "you do realize that these guys aren't even going to be in the movie, right?" Selling those and a bunch of early Rockets and 1st appearances nearly bankrolled my entire Action Comics #242 purchase. Best return on investment ever! I'd kill to get those early movie spec days back again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Pontoon Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 Just curious since everybody has different spending levels. What do you guys consider princely? I see lots of mid-grade copies selling for $50-$100 on ebay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would assume the poster was referring to characters that have not yet appeared. There are a big handful of cosmic characters that have still not been used.

Broke as a Joke Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 I picked up a NM Marvel Spotlight 6 (First Starlord in a comic) for $10 bucks at a shop last month. Strange Tales 180 can be found out there at still decent prices raw. Obviousy, Drax and Groot first appearances have blown up where you can't snag one on the cheap but those have different factors associated with it. (Thanos and pre hero Marvel.)

Kang is too many people for me it gives me a headache trying to explain his origin and relatives. He is related to too many Marvel villains.

I loved Avengers Forever when it came out trying to make sense of it all. Then when I tried to re-read it I was like...this is too hard, what were they thinking!
