The Diamond Comics Advance Reorder List is a great speculator tool. It shows what books retailers are going back to get more of, in advance of their release. They are actually putting their money up betting these books get big. These are the books people are talking about in shops, message boards, and websites. Here is the Diamond Comics Advance Reorder List for 7/6/15:
While a Star Wars related book still rules the roost, and Secret Wars titles still pop up, there are some interesting books on the list. Fight Club 2 #3 ranks high. Sons of the Devil also appears on the list a couple of times. Rick and Morty #1 going back for a 3rd print, might be time to hunt down a first printing.

Pretty amazing that Rick and Morty has such a strong following. It goes to show you how out of touch I am, though. There are some hot intellectual properties out there that I’m not even aware of. Just like small print comics, these are ones to keep an eye on. Everybody knows Star Wars or Secret Wars will sell hundreds of thousands of copies and that the 1:50 variants will always go for $39.99, but the lesser known properties…you can make a couple $3.99 investments and then flip for many times above that.
My two highest price sellers from subscription boxes over the past couple of months were My Little Pony Friendship is Magic and Rick and Morty. This is a good lesson to look outside our own interests.
P.S. Oni Press still has the Rick and Morty #1 ECCC variant (first print) for $10.00 on their website.
See BAM there is a limited to 1250 issue #1 variant.
I need to get to BAM again. I know my local one had them. I do ok from time to time on their variants.
So sad I let my Rick and Morty go early and cheap.

I called it on Rick and Morty š just wait till the second season comes out
Maybe I should sit on a copy or two out of those I’m selling on Ebay?
What about some of the other BAM variants, like the Star Wars is there any resell value in them?
I have sold BAM Variants for 2 to 3 times the price I have paid. Never had a problem moving them. I still see the Stat Wars variants at BAM so haven’t checked recently.

I’m glad Sons of the Devil is getting some love. That’s looking to be a great story.
Yeah I am really digging the book. It started off well and really reads well.
