Each week tons of new books hit the shelves. Each one has the potential to go up in value, I mean you never know what could be picked up for a movie or a tv show with the current run of announcements. Each week we provide several different looks at what people are speculating as being the next hot book, here is ours.
The odds on favorites based on previous sell-outs:
1. Day Men #2– The odds on favorite, based on a sell out first issue and a movie deal.
2. Manifest Destiny #2– Sold out first issue form Robert Kirkman’s Skybound imprint (everything is getting a movie or tv deal from them lately it seems.
The old steady:
1. Walking Dead #118– All Out War rocks. Walking Dead is usually a must pick up as back issues continue to perform.
The new Image:
1. Dead Body Road #1– Justin Jordan from Luther Strode fame continues to do great work and his new creator owned book from Skybound could be a hit.
The Outside Chance:
1. Krampus #1– I love the story of Krampus and would love to see him more in pop culture- This holiday book will likely be passed over by shoppers and could be sought after later.
2. Lunita #1 Amigo comics puts out some damn fine books that just do not get the attention they deserve. This could be their “Death Sentence.”
The really long shot:
1. WWE #1– Wth? Right? There are a ton of fans who will buy anything WWE with their favorite characters on it. This could be one of those books that ends up being completely under the radar but serves the market it is intended for. Small publisher, Super Genius, could mean a small print run.
There’s an Undertaker variant of the WWE #1
Thanks for the heads up
Sold out at midtown
From Bleeding Cool.
Frank-Miller Originally it was going to be a two page spread for the comic. Then we were told he was contributing a variant cover to the comic. And now DC Comics has cancelled that cover.
There’s no update if this will affect his originally-announced two page spread, or even if they were meant to be the same thing, repurposed, or not…
DC Comics advises that retailers up their orders on the Greg Capullo cover to compensate, but Final Order Cut-off date for ordering was yesterday. Can we expect DC Comics to add an extension to FOC in this title’s case?
And as Scott Snyder writes about his plans for Six Months Later, in the regular Batman title, DC Comics lets retailers know that, naturally due to the changes, Batman #28 will be made returnable…
I have a couple Undertaker variants left for sale
Awesome!
