They shouldn't, but you never know. When I spoke with Rob from Torpedo Comics, he told me their entire shipment/run for that book was like that. So, I'm hoping it is the case.

I have no idea. But comic nerds make a big deal of "true first appearances"...in baby form, in the shadows, finger showing up in the last panel, etc. For me personally, being a comic nerd, first appearance on the cover over overshadows the interior...so that's a big deal.

People are paying "stupid" prices for it because it is a limited run, 1st appearance, historic 1000th issue, and (insert artist name here) is drawing it. Plus what it's worth is based on each individual. What you consider "stupid" is "reasonable" for some. Go pick up a copy. It's a pretty good book ***I got mine for $28(?) from Midtown and I thought that was overpriced. YOLO!!! williamblood 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is not a first appearance "In the shadows".. Its a full blown first appearance in every book. Hence why there are other books also selling well. From what I recall, I think the book that sold with the highest price in eBay auction so far was the nicola Scott cover - which I can understand as that's a great cover for an anniversary issue imo..
