As promised, the Runners-Up list, think of these as the second part of the Top 20. Now then, on to #11-20.
#11 Swamp Thing #50 (DC, 1986) This issue is considered the first formation of a Justice League Dark team. While the New 52 series is the more modern version of the team, collectors have turned to this early iteration. It sold 17 copies, had a 7-day trend of 189% and had a high sale of $130 for a CGC 9.8.
#12 The Amazing Spider-Man #101 (Marvel, 1971) Fans were pleasantly surprised by the MORBIUS Sony Trailer and immediately turned to eBay to buy his first appearance… and it hasn’t slowed down much. This week, this pricey book sold 30 copies, had a 7-day trend of 87% and had a high sale of $1,850 for a CGC 9.2.
#13 Hulk #1 (Marvel, 2008) Rumors of the THUNDERBOLTS bring along additional rumors of RED HULK, whose first appearance is in this issue. It sold 14 copies, had a 7-day trend of 188% and had a high sale of $208 for a CGC 9.8.
#14 Moon Knight #1 (Marvel, 1980) MCU’s Moon Knight is HIGHLY anticipated. He’s still selling his first main series issue #1 like hotcakes. It sold 18 copies, had a 7-day trend of 140% and had a high sale of $271 for a CGC 9.8.
#15 Vengeance #1 (Marvel, 2011) Rumors of America Chavez joining the MCU have really skyrocketed this main cover to new heights. It sold 18 copies, had a 7-day trend of 120% and had a high sale of $345 for a CGC 9.8.
#16 Web of Venom The Good Son #1 Gerardo Sandoval Variant (Marvel, 2020) This new variant cover from last week had solid traction with 31 copies sold, a 7-day trend of 65% and a high raw sale of $50 (though it’s come down to about $30).
#17 Captain America #323 (Marvel, 1986) With Cap #333 trending, John Walker’s first appearance in Cap #323 isn’t far behind. It sold 14 copies, had a 7-day trend of 142% and had a high sale of $180 for a CGC 9.6.
#18 The Eternals #1 (Marvel, 1976) An Eternals trailer is due pretty soon. This hasn’t really stopped selling since production began. However, it’s going to really start picking up as we get closer to both a trailer and the release day. It sold 22 copies, had a 7-day trend of 89% and had a high sale of $949 for a CGC 9.8.
#19 Moon Knight #29 (Marvel, 1983) This classic Bill Sienkiewicz Werewolf by Night cover is VERY hard to find in high condition. This cover started picking up this week with 11 copies sold, a 7-day trend of 151% and had a high sale of $101 for a CGC 9.6.
#20 Ultimate Fallout #4 (Marvel, 2011) We previously mentioned how the first appearance of Miles Morales is a book you need to move on. It’s had the most steady growth of any book and has a lot of flexibility with graded sales. This week it sold 16 copies, had a 7-day trend of 99% and had a notable high sale of $500 for a CGC 9.8.
Which of Walker’s first appearances is worth the most, 323, 333, or 354?
I don’t think there’s enough stability in recent sales to make that call.
This might depend on whether it’s graded or not. That black cover of 354 in 9.8 will likely be quite hard to come by. While 323 has always been popular in any condition just because of the anniversary cover.
But there aren’t very many sales in graded copies of any of them…although 323 seems to be the most popularly graded. Will check the cgc census.
Here are some stats for ya:
Comic: CGC 9.8/9.6/9.4 (total graded)
323: 46/17/11 (104)
333: 25/14/6 (55)
354: 12/5/7 (31)
A newsstand copy of vengeance sold for $500/OBO. Graded 9.8s are selling for around $400/OBO. How’s that not higher on the list?
Because Covrprice algorithm’s work in mysterious ways..
Im a little surprised the Ultimate 4 second prints have not taken off. At least those show Miles on the cover.
