As promised, the Covrprice.com Top 10 Runners-up list. The second half of the Top 20.

11. MARVEL MEOW #1 – DOALY
Marvel Meow has evolved from an Instagram comic to a Marvel Infinity Comic and now a full-on print comic! It follows Chewie, a kitty owned by Captain Marvel who has a penchant for involving themselves with fellow Marvel heroes. Naturally, there are tons of cat fans within the comic community, some dying to get their hands on this book, homaging the most famous Lion King scene ever. One that incidentally features a giant cat. So meta of you Marvel. We tracked 16 copies sold, at a 7-day trend of 107%, with a high sale of $23 for a raw copy and a current raw NM FMV of $13.

12. DEATH OF THE VENOMVERSE #2 – LUCIANO VECCHIO – KID VENOM
Kid Venom is currently the rage, but his humble beginnings started in this book. Known as Venom Boy, this variant was one of the few for this issue to feature Venom Boy front and center. Now that he’s in the spotlight again with a recently released solo series, fans are backtracking to acquire his first appearance and cover. We tracked 17 copies sold at a 7-day trend of 108%, with a high sale of $85 for a CGC 9.8 and a current raw NM FMV of $5.

13. SHAZAM! #7 – DAVID NAKAYAMA (1:25)
David Nakayama, meet aftermarket. We routinely see covers from Nakayama featuring a heroine of the month on this list. This month, it’s Mary Marvel getting the spotlight. It’s a drastic departure from the other variant covers for this book that either feature violent battles between Shazam and Black Adam or a solo Shazam. We tracked 14 copies sold, at a 7-day trend of 132%, with a high sale of $50 for a raw copy and a current raw NM FMV of $38.

14. BIRDS OF PREY #5 – NATHAN SZERDY (1:25)
Nathan Szerdy is a name that appears more frequently on these lists. He brings a flare for characters that translates well to the tastes of the aftermarket. This book is no exception, featuring a heavily tattooed Harley Quinn tattooing a double-sleeved Black Canary. Who knew they could rock ink so well? We tracked 13 copies sold, at a 7-day trend of 104%, with a high sale of $53 for a raw copy and a current raw NM FMV of $41.

15. FALL OF THE HOUSE OF X #1 – STANLEY ARTGERM LAU – MAGIK VIRGIN (1:50)
Artgerm and Magik? The aftermarket said, “Yes, please!” Artgerm and Magik go way back, with his depiction of the character being what most fans picture in their minds. Pair that with the beginning of a significant event in the X-Men universe, and the aftermarket gets busy! We tracked 16 copies sold, at a 7-day trend of 97%, with a high sale of $108 for a raw copy and a current raw NM FMV of $75.

16. SPIDER-MAN 2099 VOL.1 #1
It’s 2099; you know this book well by now. You probably even own one. If not, it does look pretty amazing on the wall; it may be time to pick one up. We tracked 16 copies sold, at a 7-day trend of 111%, with a high sale of $104 for a CGC 9.8 copy and a raw NM FMV of $16.

17. The Omega Men #3
Aquaman 2 has quietly hit $300 million at the worldwide box office. Despite it being somewhat of a lame-duck movie, fans are still eager to see Mamoa rock the suit one last time. While they will remember Mamoa as Aquaman fondly, there is a growing fanbase more eager to see him step into the role of Lobo, who first appears in this book, in the upcoming DCU. It was one of the hottest rumors of 2023 and is already starting well enough in 2024! We tracked 24 copies sold at a 7-day trend of 105%, with a high sale of $379 for a CGC 9.8 and a current raw NM FMV of $74

18. DAREDEVIL #11 – RON GARNEY – REGULAR
Muse is a recent character but already a minor fan favorite. Muse has a God complex and is an excellent opposite of a character like Daredevil. So much so that rumors began to swirl that Muse may be the perfect villain to introduce and feature in Daredevil: Born Again. We’re still a long way from that show hitting the screen. But it’s an unconfirmed nugget of info that helps keep the community thinking. We tracked 12 copies sold, at a 7-day trend of 181%, with a high sale of $160 for a CGC 9.8 and a current raw NM FMV of $43.

19. Batman #609
There’s been an uptick in speculation for future movies under the DC umbrella. The Batman was a smash hit, and fans patiently await the sequel. In the meantime, theories run rampant, ‘evidence’ is dissected, and every word uttered by those close to the project is under a microscope. That brought this book back to the list, as fans heavily speculate that Hush could be the main villain for The Batman 2. However, there is no concrete evidence, but certainly a lot of breadcrumbs. We tracked 18 copies sold at a 7-day trend of 109%, with a high sale of $235 for a CGC 9.8 and a raw NM FMV of $45

20. KID VENOM: ORIGINS #1 – TAURIN CLARKE (1:25)
Kid Venom is quickly becoming a character fans have their eye on. It was a quick turnaround between his first appearance and his solo series. This book marks its debut and has some stellar covers. This 1:25 from Taurin Clarke may not have been as heavily sought after as the others, but it’s quietly snagged more market share. We tracked 18 copies sold, at a 7-day trend of 100%, with a high sale of $35 for a raw copy and a current raw NM FMV of $25.
