Ho Ho Ho.. it’s that time of year again, where we buy all the stuff we usually buy every Wednesday anyways. So buy yourself some extra comics or statues this Wednesday, wrap them up, open them this weekend on Christmas and act surprised, cause that’s the great thing about the Holidays (just tell your significant other you thought they got it for you.) It’s not worshiping the changing of the seasons or the new year. It’s about getting a bunch of stuff we don’t really need but we want anyways.
So let the new comic book picks before Christmas begin..
DC/Vertigo Pick
Trinity #4 (DC) Clay Mann Variant Cover A – I’m picking this one just for the cover alone. Just a great cover for the trio that get the most press.
Marvel Pick
Gamora #1 (Marvel) – I like Gamora. I really like Esad Ribic art as well, I wish he as the primary artist but Marco Checchetto art is top notch as well. So I’m hoping to land his variant cover as well, which is pretty sweet. I’m looking forward to reading about the “Deadliest Woman in the Galaxy!”
Small Publisher Pick of the Week
Dead Inside #1 (Dark Horse) – First of all, I don’t think many know this from CHU but I love Law and Order. The original. I can watch that show a million times over, each episode and still be entertained. So when a comic claims that if you like Law and Order, of course it has my attention. So yes, I’m looking forward to this one since it’s also written by John Arcudi, who writes Rumble, which I think is underrated book and needs more credit to it’s name.
Indie Pick of the Week
Divinity III Stalinverse #1 (Valiant) – The other Divinity series were great. This one we should expect no less. There’s a new God, be prepared and welcome to Stalinverse.
That’s it from me. Everyone have some Happy Holidays.

Peter Panzerfaust series finale
Meh.. that series got Wiebe’d
Lol Wiebe’d the practice of killing your own heat by destroying the spec
yeah. I quit reading when the series dropped off for that big hiatus
I think I stuck around for a few issues, there were some big gaps though.. then it just vanished, like a fart in a car with the window down.. now we’ve been blessed with the final two issues in about a months time.. yeah, thanks, but no thanks at this point. I got my closure around a year ago when I decided to just stop bothering..
Can’t complain about PP too much, I sold my #1 back when the heat was on it. Had a nice weekend away from that one!
I still have mine.. should have dumped it off a long time ago. Oh well.. it’s still a great read, up until it did a Houdini disappearing act..
I have a double signed #1 that I should have sold a long time ago.
I’ll give you $5 for it.. that’s at least a buck over it’s value.. 😉
Lol. I think I sold the original #1 double signed for $9.99 each.
I haven’t checked in forever what it is going for
Looks like a recent CGC 9.8 #1 went for $104.50.. a far cry from what it peaked at from what I recall.

A #3 9.8 sold for a whopping $15.50.. geez.. that’s just awful!
You did well with it. Held mine for way too long. Did do signed copies on here years ago! one of the Chu signed books I offered up.
Wow, I hadn’t realized just how far it dropped. If I remember right, I sold 1-5 + the Morning Glories 1st app for over $500 way back when it was gonna be a tv show or BBC webcast or something.
Crazy world, huh?
Yeah it dropped big time. A 9.8 sold in October for $171 however, in November one sold for less than $100
Did they ever do a tv show?
Peter Panzerfaust? Nope, I think it only got as far as being optioned.. which is like making it to the 1 yard line in the 100 yard dash..
Totally understand that this site is geared more towards the speculator point of view, but I am one of those who is looking forward to closing out my PP story line and will definitely be grabbing a copy. I actually still need first print issues of #1 and 7-9 (got a second print of #9). So I guess I can get em cheap on ebay now, cool 🙂
The original Law and Order was sooo good. The spinoffs? Ehhh….
I initially passed on Dead Inside. I’ll try to pick that up tonight.
Yeah. I’m hoping Dead Inside is good..
There’s been a resurgence of crime books lately. I’m loving it.
Yeah, me too. Another show I have to stop and watch even if I’ve seen it is “First 48″… I just love watching crimes get solved.
With the kids I’ve fallen waaaay behind on everything that’s not Spongebob.
Spongebob is good though..
You and me both
I watch CSI and those shows at the gym. They are always on
You and me both. I love crime and I love horror. Someone combine the two.
Kill or Be Killed does just that. Excellent book, they just finished the 1st arc.
