Image had some awesome stuff!!!! Wildcats,  Cyberforce,  Deathblow, Team7, Wetworks, Stormwatch, General were awesome!!!! I would have loved to see where they would be if they stayed the course.  The Wildstorm catalog is being wasted at DC comics.  Damn shame!

The Aliens/WIldcats was a $20+ book at one time, but I see them a lot in dollar bins these days. So, I pick 'em up! As you pointed out, I always pick up 37, as you will still find that in dollar bins occasionally. Stormwatch v2 #4, however, I just never, ever see that book at all. Such a classic run. Great stuff.

So I looked up some prices after I posted this today. 

Aliens/Wildcats is doing very well.  $40 range.  Probably a great time to sell due to the hype w/ Marvel picking them up. 

On the sad side, SW 7 seems to have tanked.  IMO, I would grab those at low prices all day. 2 1st appearances in that issue if I recall.  Granted, the cash is in the 9.8's and those are not easy to find. 

SW V2 4 seems to sell very well.  Talking an $80-90 book.  100% agree with your statement about how hard they are to find.  I was collecting Stormwatch since the beginning. I had one hole in that collection, guess what it was.  Took FOREVER to find a copy.  This book is so money and it doesn't even know it.

Stormwatch v1 #7? I can only find one or two sales of the book in 9.8 and it looks like they sold for $10.

Since the news of The Tales of Dunk and Egg aired - one of the prequels to Game of Thrones -, the value of Image Comics' The Hedge Knight #1-7 has seen an increase ~

Oh cool, thanks for the heads up on Aliens/Stormwatch! I thought it was weird that it had totally bottomed out, I guess it’s been swept up in the Aliens buying frenzy since Marvel announced their new title. I got a copy a month ago for a buck. Now to tell myself it’s ok to let a few of these go...

Sorry, I fat fingered it.  Was supposed to be V1 37 (1st Warren Ellis, 1st Hawksmoor, 1st Jenny Sparks).

These 90s image books are a definite blindspot for me as I don't know the semi fake keys. I kept the obvious ones, but donated about a short box of ones that looked like fancy covers and no substance to goodwill. My older brother used to buy like 10 image books a week, read them in 5 minutes, and then give them to me as he did not collect and would never read them again (and his fiance hated that he read comic).

The one of the right seems to still be a dollar box book, but the one on the left is a variant that potentially does double digits

Book is all over, not a lot of listing now, mostly $15+. Have seen some sales where it went for nothing along with a bunch of other books. My comic shop apparently thought it was a $2 book not long ago.. shockingly they are now out of stock: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Stormwatch-37-VF-1996-Stock-Image/133603306899?hash=item1f1b60ad93:g:NG0AAOSwidZf0ulz

Aliens/Wildcats? This one sold for $2, although there have been higher sales.. the book is all over the place: https://www.ebay.com/itm/WildC-A-T-S-Aliens-1-August-1998-First-Print-Image-Comics/224309350498?hash=item3439e11062:g:QQAAAOSwljNf-INA    The Darkhorse version/cover seems to be less numerous and does better ... But both are definetelty worth looking out for

My brain might be at its limits for remembering potentially flippable books out of dollar boxes. Need to erase some childhood memories to make room.

Yes, Aliens/Wildcats, I always conflate it with Stormwatch as that's basically where the Authority began.
