Alana's: Weekend Specs: Spectacular Spidey Spoiler


Aloha CHUniverse and welcome back to Weekend Specs. This week will be a short write up as not much new info to pass on that you haven’t read on ten different sites already. This week we have another Black Panther villain revealed, as well as a casting call for the X-universe, and finally a Major huge spoiler that you should not read if you want to stay spoiler free for a certain Web slingers reboot. So let’s jump in.

Captain America #1641st Nightshade. Another Black Panther Villain will be gracing the silver screen, Nightshade will join Killmonger, Man Ape, and Klaw in Black Panther. Can be found in high grade for under $20 might be a nice flip here closer to the film release.
Books older than Captain America #217 1st Quasar which is seeing recent love.

(Uncanny) X-Men 64 1st Sunfire. Casting call for Sunfire went out recently, now if only we could get a live action Big Hero 6. X-Men #97 1st Lilandra and the Shi’ar is also heating up from recent Dark Phoenix news.

Venom vs. Carnage #1. All the rage as of late is Amazing Spider-Man #361 1st Carnage. But you should put this book V vs. C #1 on your radar. Much like Cable and Deadpool #1 got a pop from Cable news at the end of the Deadpool flick, I imagine this book could see a up swing. Also issue #2 is Carnage’s offspring Toxin’s first appearance, which may come into play down the road. So look for the whole Venom vs. Carnage run to kill two birds for cheaper.

Amazing Spider-Man #529 1st Iron Spider. So looks like the end credits scene according to Reddit is Ironman offering Spidey to join the Avengers which he declines and also giving Spider-Man the Iron Spider suit it’s red and blue but has the gold Spider chest and gold outlines on the costume. Also Zendaya reveals her nickname is MJ but she’s not Mary Jane this may piss off some fanboys. This info could be wrong but many people seem to agree it’s legit.
There you have it a short list but a sweet list of some decent specs all fairly priced. Looking forward to seeing Spider-Man here soon myself even though I’ve read the entire plot, the hard life of a comic spec’r! Hope you all have a good weekend and Happy Hunting!!!

    1. The casting call was for Sunfire, Dazzler’s role is also being casted, didn’t write it up because I’m sure most of us have the first appearance from the Taylor Swift AOA rumor awhile back. Also Donald Glover is Prowler in Spider-Man Homecoming wrote up Prowlers first awhile back as well looks like it panned out.

  1. Thanks for the 529 tip. I got one, but the $20 and under copies are selling fast. Appreciate the info.

  2. As always Alana, great write up!!! Amazing Spiderman #529 had multiple prints as well with a second printing having the same cover as the first and a third printing with a new cover… The third print has a ridiculously small print run for a spider-man book. Under 4k… That’s the equivalent of a 1in 25 variant to the first print of roughly 90k…. Not sure why some reprints get tons of love and others are bottom feeders, but if ASM #529 starts heating up the third print may be the way to go. It’s pretty cheap last time I looked.

    1. Im not big on later printings, I know some of them do well. I think on this particular book the 1st print cover looks much better then the third print which is usually a big factor in later printings heating up.

  3. Got ASM 529 1st print for $70 a while back. It’s a nice NM+. Need to send it to CGC and depending on the heat, post it on ebay.
