If you know anything about comics is that they are forcing diversity down our throats. As a speculator I'd say load up on all of the black versions of mainstream characters in case they pull a miles morales and go up in value like crazy. Sure the movies might suck, nobody really wants to see this but it'll drive the prices up and that's all that matters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyways, Final Crisis 7 is the first appearance, CGC just doesn't have it right. But the market determines prices, not what CGC writes on a slab. This is correct. The last 9.8 went for $189 USD two days ago. I predict this will double by the time spring rolls around when Calvin is reintroduced. Once it becomes a movie a 9.8 will fetch well over 1k.

Right, because if there are infinite universe and infinite Earths, in your world of butthurt, it makes sense that every Superman in every one of those infinite Earths is white.

Your time has come and passed. People like you are marginalized. You're a dying breed. Society is changing and you are being left behind. You feel that the world is figuratively slapping you around with this and you know what? You're right... because people like you are being shunned and all you can do is just be angry. You got nothing. You got no real recourse. And that is why I smile. You got nothing except your anger and in the end... you've got nothing at all.

Mephisto Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 According to this thread I am filthy rich! I have the real first appearance of the first black Superman. Steel! Lordy I am way ahead of the curve as there is already a Steel movie staring Shaq! This picture says it all! Steel is very clearly the first Black Superman! He beats Miles Morales by almost a decade!
