Assuming 20% CAGR 3.2M would be over 1B in 31.5 years (2045). As a wise scientist once wrote, "Compound interest is the eighth wonder of the world..." Inflation not withstanding.

By comparison, Action 1 only has 12 (4 in universal). The likelihood that someone can get a really nice presenting CA 1 far exceeds that for Action 1. So you would think that demand at higher levels is going to be much more diluted. Plus, let's face it, Captain America is a sucky character (just another Shield rip-off), almost as bad as Daredevil (just another Wildcat rip-off) I do have a rosy view of the book. The Allentown Captain America #1 is one of the 5-10 coolest individual books in the hobby (and features the first appearance of one of the most important characters in pop culture. I think it transcends the relative census story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
