Normally, The Diamond Comics Advanced Reorder list is a good indicator on what to buy based on what is being reordered by retailers before the books ship out. For the past three weeks it has been about one thing Villain’s month. If you haven’t pre-ordered the 3-d covers, you may be too late. Retailers are scrambling to get the non-3-d covers.

Is anyone going to pick up the 2-d covers? Im picking up what I will read, but other than that it just doesn’t look like anybody cares.
I really want to see what other speculators think.
The 2-d covers have dominated the advanced reorder list for the past couple of weeks. It may be way over ordered but it remains to be seen. I don’t think that people will be collecting all the standard covers.

Will the 3D covers be more in demand? That’s what it looks like to me. I don’t know much. I think I’ll pick up one or two of the 2D version.
Yes the three d covers are going to be more in demand since they were heavily allocated to stores to the point where some stores will not be getting any copies of certain covers. Expect prices to rise quickly.
Wow that’s crazy! So I had to order them if I wanted them? I didn’t know about the 3D covers till last week. You can tell I’m way behind.
I didnt expect the whole fiasco with allocating the covers and what not, but i did think of it as a unique break to regular books so i ordered a few and im very glad i did. Hope it pays off which im sure it will now that its getting crazy hype.
My professional opinion and prediction is that their will be a big worldwide shortage of the 3D covers causing a ton of people to speculate and buy them all up quickly and ebay will be flooded with copies. Either prices will sell really high initially and settle OR the market might get saturated instantly and they will all be common online but rare in stores. Since nobody could predict this coming I did not order any 3D covers – i ordered very light on the 2d covers assuming there will be plenty of those out there
It pays to be first to market with them. It always pays to be first to market with anything though.

Since I didn’t order any 3D covers I might not even get one. Unless I try and find them oline. I hope they don’t cost an arm and a leg.
How much do you think they will go for online? The one with Harley Quinn on the cover/
Harley Quinn and Jokers Daughter are going for $20 in and about for preorder.

O ok. Wow! High price. Will they sell for more once they come out you think? Cause not a lot of people are going to have them,right? Only so many were are going to be printed. What about the one with the Joker on the cover?
Do you know the how many prints for the 3D ones? Thank you
Do you know what date the Batman Dark Knight #23.4 Jokers Daughter will hit the stores?
September 24th
Oops, 25th, sorry
Thank you Arcanum Comics . Let’s see if I can get one at one of the shops.
The print runs are HUGE on these even though they are sold out. So once people start dumping them they might lose a lot of value. If you just read comics I would just not buy them at all right now and wait a while and you might get them cheaper
Will the print run be the for the 3D covers be same as the Standard Edition Covers?
Print run on the 3d covers has been allocated and probably alot less than the 2d standard covers, but being scarce in stores makes for big internet prices. Im not sure of an actual print run number yet, but im sure its high being that its DC. I know that orders or extreamly high on these books now though
I’m just hoping to get one on the day they come out. But getting out of work at 5:30 pm doesn’t help. I asked two of the shops that I go to if they can hold 1 or 2 for me. First come basis. I can respect that.
No, the standard covers will be printed in way bigger quantities than the 3-d
so are the print runs unknown for the 3d covers because of the 2d standard covers being printed to fill the demand? Or are the standard covers going to be labeled as a second print or variant?
I wish I had the info on that myself. I am in the dark on that one.
No, the standard covers are first prints. Kinda like newsstand vs direct market, they are both first prints but there are differences.
I think you’ll be able to flip these easily upon release within the first 12-24 hours. Easily. However, do you think these 3d covers will continue to increase in value like batman #1 new 52? Would be nice to hold onto these for a while..especially if they’re rare and won’t get another 3d 2nd printing….your thoughts?
3-d 2nd prints are coming……
3D 2nd Printing should be coming out on Dec 11.
