Catching up on RSS feeds, there never is enough time My inbox is full of stories I need to get to, this is one of them.
So, the next Spider-man might not be Peter Parker, or if he is Peter Parker, he may not be white.
From Comicbook.com:
Jeff Sneider from The Wrap just dropped a potential bomb regarding the next Spider-Man on the Meet the Movie Press podcast, which he co-hosts with Mark Reilly from Schmoes Know.
“This is not set in stone guys, but I’m telling you right now: Spider-Man is not going to be white,” Jeff Sneider revealed. When Reilly asked him if that was speculation, Jeff replied, “I am 95% sure.”
Now the key here is Miles Morales first appearance in Ultimate Fallout #4. Prices have already started going up. It is a good time to search the back issue bins and flip, or get and hold. This one is up in the air since it is not definite so I am pulling my copy to sell and digging for more.
Here is a “find it cheap in the back issues” and flip scenerio. Or you could hold it until the Deadpool movie. X-Force #19 has popped up in value recently due to the casting of Morena Baccarinas in the Deadpool Movie.

In 2011 DC started marketing the Combo Pack which was a bagged edition of their most popular comics with the price $1.00 higher than the regular cover with the digital code included to download a copy of the comic.
DC released hundreds of comics in this format over the next 3 1/2 years but it appears to be coming to an end. Sales on these marked up combo packs is very low – these might be the future collectible comics as the print runs are potentially only 5% the print run of the regular cover.
These have never been seen as a collectible which gives them the great opportunity to actually become one once collectors realize how few of these are out there. Plus how many people actually bought these and then opened up the bag so bagged versions could even be scarcer. Continue reading “The rarity of DC Combo Pack comics 2011-2015”
