  1. What a awkward list the Thor #1 Staples Variant looks like a pump a dump it was the last covers to be bought after all the 1:50s and cover As dried up both with more copies sold. Then those horrible numbers pulled out of thin air for Captain Marvel #8 on the other page no your Carnageized bs didn’t sell for $140 it was a cgc copy of the store variant which is barely getting $20 with plenty of raws to go around. Captain Marvel #8 has some copies as low as $12 dollars not the hot book anymore. The list was released on Tuesday it wasn’t hot than either. When your list passes up on hot books that are selling for more and in greater quantity than what’s on your list its called AGENDAS.

      1. I know it comes from elsewhere, my comments were not directed at you my apologies if it came off that way. I check it on Tuesdays. Their formula for what makes a top book is off because they don’t take in to account total money spent on the total copies sold in the given week. So if a 125 copies of Captain Marvel sold at an avg price of let’s say $15 that means a total of $1875 was spent on that book that week. There’s copies of Tomb Of Dracula that sold one copy for more money than 125 Captain Marvel #8s. So 100 copies of Tomb #10 at a $800 avg price per book means people put up $80,000 in one week investing on that title and for that to go unnoticed by a spec top 20 list makes it’s really just a random list.

        1. I don’t think total price of a book is main factor, it’s average price before and after it started moving more units that’s probably calculated. How many units of X moved within the past week compared to prior week, etc.. But I stand by you on the books that really don’t make sense. But remember, this list was probably compiled before the Tombs of Dracula and all the other news from SDCC really took off. It’s books from last week, not counting sales from this week. Maybe they should provide the exact dates they ran their numbers, might help explain how the top list gets compiled.

        2. I actually said to Poyo late Sunday people would not be happy with this week’s list. The first Shang Chi is not on the list and it sold crazy and for big numbers. I do not know the formula, but I have said it before, it is a tool that people can use. I pull it up in comic shops all the time. Key collector too. Even the cbsi top 10 list. I keep a list of books I am looking for. The list comes down to being a tool and not the “end all be all” authority on what is hot at the moment.

  2. 100 copies of The Tomb Of Dracula #10 have moved since announcement breaking record prices in every grade and this list is putting Venom Lethal Protector #1 In their too 20. What a sham.

    2. Most importantly:
      What idiot paid $205 for a cbcs 9.4 Lethal Protector 1 and HOW DO I BECOME THAT PERSON’S PRIVATE COMIC DEALER?!?!?!?

  3. Yeah, I gotta admit that it is tiresome to hear, every week, that this ‘list’ doesnt make sense. This is not directed at you, Alana, just a general comment.
    People, its an arbitrary list put out by an arbitrary company/person. This list is not a bible to live off of. Its just a list. The prices that they include are arbitrary too because the sources are not divulged. If you are curious as to what a book is selling for, go see what its selling for on any of the selling platforms, dont rely on an arbitrary list. And yes, this list is just as arbitrary as any list made and posted on any site, including any list that you may make at home.

    1. The problem with that statement is that in some cases, you are paying money for a service. If I was paying money then I know I would want something that is accurate and such.

      I don’t pay for the service, so I take the list with a gram of salt.

      1. If someone is paying for a service in which they question the product/info that they are paying for, that is on the consumer, imo.
        I dont pay anyone for their lists. I think everyone needs to do their own research and figure out what works for them. If you are relying on an arbitrary list for your collecting/flipping habits, best of luck. Again, this is not directed towards any one person. Just my general opinion.

  4. The real question is what metrics do they use to see comic sales. I know I sold 50+ tnmt 95 2nd print a week or so ago and that didn’t show on the list. If they are filtering the results then this list will not be accurate.

    1. At what price? If you sold 50 copies at 20% off cover price it wouldn’t qualify as a top book. Yes it sold but at less than cover. It comes down to the meterics.

      1. So do they filter out sales that are lower than cover? There are other sellers with the same book at cover price whomsold units. It was a hot book to say the least. Not knowing the criteria that they search for is what I think is being called into question. How is book A on the list but book G isn’t?

      2. I think that should play in the overall average if you ask me. I don’t think the final price or value should take away if a book that only sold a few or none but then news caused the book to jump in sales, regardless of the selling price. If a nothing book sold 0 units 2 months prior to the news where now 20, 50 or more issues started selling at say, $5, that’s still a hot book to me. It tells one that there is now demand for it.

        But yeah, not knowing how they come up with their hot books from week to week starts to beg the question and integrity of how they’re creating these hot books..

    2. The only metrics that should matter are your own. The only 100% reliable source anyone can trust is their own thought process on what to do with their own money. This list, and any list, should be taken for what it is. And all it is is an arbitrary list. There is useful info, imo, found in said lists. The reader needs to be able to analyze the info and use what they think is beneficial, if anything, to them. I understand that having the ‘formula’ they use would help with your analysis. But, that ‘formula’ is not divulged, thus making the list arbitrary. So, given what we know about the make up of the list, one must use their own discretion when obtaining/using any useful information from the list. And that is how I feel about/approach ‘lists’. Remember, in the online world, ‘lists’ are click bait. ?

  5. That CGC 9.4 Lethal Protector 1 has to be Yellow Label, right? Right?

    I mean we sell 8-10 copies of that book every month in really nice shape for around $40 each.

  6. If a book on the list looks interesting I check ebay sales…I usually see some relevance to their list…every so often an odd ball shows up…like I think Spider-Man 2099 showed up at hot, and yes the book was moving like hot cakes but most sales were under cover price before shipping.
