Since Covrprice.com came on the scene, they have become a go to spot for watching eBaytrends on comics. They scour thousands of eBay
sales to cultivate data to spotlight the hottest selling comics. Here is this week’s Top Ten Comics: (Please note, potential spoilers do follow, and, these results are for auction that closed last week. )

#2 THE STRANGE TALENT OF LUTHER STRODE #1 (IMAGE, 2011) Per THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER, “The Strange Talent of Luther Strode’ is being developed as a movie by new production company Allnighter”.

#7 MICHAELANGELO, TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLE #1 (MIRAGE, 1985) There’s a reveal at the end of THE LAST RONIN that has caused recent interest in this solo series.

#8 SPAWN #311 MCFARLANE CHADWICK TRIBUTE B&W VARIANT (IMAGE, 2020) This great homage to the late Chadwick Boseman struck a chord with collectors who quickly picked one up. It sold 50 copies, had a 7-day trend of 67% and had a high sale of $19.99 for a raw copy.

#10 TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES ADVENTURES #1 (ARCHIE, 1988) The Last Ronin has lit a fire under various TMNT books. This Archie series features the first appearance of Krang, Bebop and Rocksteady. Not sure why the exact interest in this suddenly shot up aside from being a cool comic. It sold 14 copies, had a 7-day trend of 206% and had a high sale of $158 for a CGC 9.2 (though the next day a CGC 9.6 sold for $380).
