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 for 10/4/15:
Interesting list this week. Local Comic Shop Day rules the roost. These may be hard to come by as these will only be available at select local comic shops.

I was told that some of these will only be limited to 3 per store.
Which makes absolutely no sense. Why try to get people racing to their local comic shops for books they are only getting up to 3 of? Seems like a failed promotion. Furthermore the website doesn’t even list participating stores. Ugh! I want the Project Nemesis one without paying eBay prices.
End rant.

I found out the 3 stores that are holding the event in my area by talking to the owner of one of the stores that is participating. He said that they are still discussing how they are going to distribute the books (maybe hold a lotto or something), but it seems like it’s still up in the air. They are going to have to make an announcement soon because, believe it or not, black friday is six weeks away!
