Not long ago we noticed an increase inthe selling price on ‘The Strain’ #1, a book that originally was selling for $1 and we were able to find a several copies in shops for quick profit. Then the news came out about it going to the silver screen. Prices popped even further.

Wild Blue Yonder #1 sells out at distributor level before release
IDW announced two sold out books this week, ‘Half Past Danger’ #1 and 2 and ‘Wild Blue Yonder’ #1.
‘Wild Blue Yonder’ had a print run of 12,327 and was sold out before it hit the stands. This does not mean that your local comic shop does not have copies, it means that they cannot reorder first prints after they sell out.
I have store variants and Phantom Variants signed by the creative team for sale if anyone is interested. Email me at apopcomics@gmail.com or hit us up on facebook at www.facebook.com/comicsheatingup for pricing and details.
Half Past Danger #1 and 2 Sells out at distributor level
Looks like IDW had a couple of recent releases that did pretty well. IDW was proud to announce that their book ‘Half Past Danger’ #1 and 2 are sold out at the distributor level and would be going back for a second printing. The second book came out last week. This had previously been one of our picks of the week. The print run on number 1 was fairly small for a new book at only 8,500 copies.
I do have the subscription variant available
if anyone is interested. Discount rates for multiple copies purchased. Email me at apopcomics@gmail.com if interested or hit us up on facebook at www.facebook.com/comicsheatingup
‘Locke and Key’ optioned for movie
Joe Hill’s Locke and Key comic book has been optioned for a movie according to The Hollywood Reporter. The book follows a widow and her three children who move to an old family home controlled by mysterious keys that open doors that have supernatural powers.
The book had previously been optioned for a tv show for Fox but was passed over due to budget restraints and other reasons. The original miniseries already sell at a premium but grab and hold until the news spreads and prices increase further.
‘Think Tank’ Movie in development.
Thanks to Schwaeger for bringing this to my attention yesterday on our Facebook Site.
Rumors are going around the message boards that the fan favorite comic ‘Think Tank’ by Matt Hawkins had been optioned for a movie deal. Now Bleeding Cool is echoing the rumor as well.
Maybe an announcement will come at Image Expo on July 2nd.

Larry’s Comics Market report 6/19/13

His picks for the week are below:
AGE OF ULTRON #10 (OF 10)
CAPTAIN MIDNIGHT #0
GREEN LANTERN NEW GUARDIANS #21
LIBERATOR #1
WILD BLUE YONDER #1 (OF 5) PHANTOM ED

Here is this weeks new comic book releases shipping Continue reading “Comics Books Shipping 6/19/13”
Comic Picks of the week 6/19/13
Each Tuesday we pick which books we are speculating on to be the “big” books of the week. This week we have some really interesting picks. Check them out below and let us know what you think:
Superman Unchained #1 3d DC Roadshow Variant sells for $405
So DC is doing their road show to promote their upcoming books, including the new Sandman book. As a promo, they gave out Superman Unchained #1 3d variant. This isn’t like the old school needing glasses 3d from the past, instead thy are using new 3d lenticular technology. This is the same type cover coming up on their villains month books.
Within hours of the book being given out, one copy sold for over $400. If you can sweet talk your local retailer into letting theirs go, or they have one going for a decent price, this one would be worth picking up and flipping.
Six Gun Gorilla sells out in 24 hours
Boom Studios has announced that Six Gun Gorilla, which was released this past Wednesday, has sold out. It sold out within 24 hours. It sold out at the distributor level which means it can still be found in stores. It is going back for a second printing.
Diamond Comics Advanced Reorder List 6/12/13
I will admit that the past couple of reorder lists have been fairly boring. Not too much for speculators to pick through. The past through weeks have been cock full of Tpbs and hard covers which I usually gloss over or leave out all together. This months is different. The advanced reorder list is what retailers are stocking up on before the issues are released. They may have heard speculation, have had people asking about books, or had the previous issue sell well or sell out.
This weeks list sees some new books (which look to sell out) and major cross over books.
See the list after the bump.

Larry’s Comics Market Report 6/12/13
Hey guys,
here is my shops weekly report for this week.
It contains A LOT of recycled information because it’s weekly & the market doesn’t change that fast.
Enjoy it. Don’t take it too seriously.
Top ten
Regular issue new comics by sales:
Here is the top ten list of actual sales in my shop. These are just one shop out of 1,900 shops actual sales.
#1 – Age Of Ultron #9. “Alpha Dog” Clearly Marvel has caught the eye of fandom, this “Age of Apocalypse-esque” crossover has never skipped a beat.
Superior Spider-Man #11. Dan Slott is penning a historical run.
#3 – All New X-Men #12. Teenage X-Men = $
#4 – Avengers #13. Rounding out an all Marvel top 4.
#5 -Detective Comics #21. DC sales are on life support.
#6 –
Green Lantern #21. We gave it away FREE 7 it only made #6
#7 -Thanos Rising #3 (of 5).
#8 – Action Comics #21.
#9 – Kick Ass 3 #1 . Mark Millar is a god in my shop.
#10 -East Of West #3. Fans adore Hickman’s new series. Sales have been “Saga-esque”
Honerable mention: The Walking Dead Vol. 18: What Comes After TP was our Indy “rock star” of the day fans of the TV show come out of the woodwork for the latest tpb. ( This appears to be the chosen format for the general public to read WD )
BEST SELLING COMICS in a world without DC and Marvel

BEST SELLING COMICS in a world without DC and Marvel – report by Terry Hoknes of www.HoknesComics.com
Marvel & DC have always dominated the market and basically you could say “own” the comic industry. So lets analyze the best selling comics WITHOUT any Marvel/DC titles included. This will give us a better perception of how well the other publishers sell and what titles and characters actually compete with Marvel/DC sales numbers. After reading this chart you may have a new appreciation for the smaller publishers who bring a wider and unique variety of titles to our comic shops each week.
MAY 2013 best selling comics chart.
Lets erase the 79 DC and 74 Marvel titles and see what the “other” best selling comics were!
Only 9 comics ranked in the Top 100 and these are the 9 high profile comics of the month that truly had a buzz.
Walking Dead returned back to #1 yet again. Ten Grand #1 from Image had a super strong showing with 2 different regular covers. The power of Star Wars is continually strong as sales hold steady on #5. Regular Show #1 had 6 regular covers which helped print orders making Boom’s biggest selling comic ever. Girl power was strong yet again with My Little Pony #7. The original creator of TMNT returned to the comic after many years creating a “first” of sorts. This boosted sales way up the list. Charismagic had a high print run as it was priced at only $1.00 Image Bounce #1 had decent orders but very small compared to Ten Grand. The hype of the very first Sesame Street comic ever encouraged all retailers to really take a chance on this one based on the 1970 TV series with 5 different regular covers. 6 of the 9 comics ranked high due to being a “first” of sorts.
Only 9 comics made the top 100 but 60 made the top 200 showing that there is a lot of support for indie publishers but mostly in the 10,000 to 20,000 range whereas Marvel/DC average orders are double that.

Comic Picks of the Week 6/12/13
This is a fantastic Wednesday. It is big and has a couple if really good releases I think should be checked out. I always look forward to new comic day but rarely like this one. So on to the speculation picks of the week.
1. Walking Dead 111 – always a must but and with the three “tribes” conflict coming to a head these issues will be key. You should always pick up pre-100 books but lately these issues have introduced characters that will be big later.
2. The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys – Gerard Way of ‘My Chemical Romance’ is back at the helm of a Dark Horse comic. ‘Umbrella Academy’ was a huge crossover hit, not just with comic fans but music fans as well. The Free Comic Book Day issue spiked after release. I will have phantom variants up on my eBay site.
3. Superman Unchained- the variants are already pulling big dollars on the secondary market before it has been released.
4. Batman 21- Year Zero starts. Batman has been a solid performer and a great book.
5. A1 #1- Return of the award winning anthology returns. I will also have the phantom variant of this on my ebay site
Honorable mentions: Six Gun Gorilla this golden age public domain character is back and it seems like a fun quirky story.
Peter Panzerfaust 11- Cry Wolf story line begins. Book Issues have been hot. And this one features hook prominently on the cover and in the story. (Granted 10 bombed on the secondary market but 8 and 9 which featured hook did quite well.
Angela to be in ‘Guardians of the Galaxy’ Movie
Bleeding Cool had ran an interesting story today, that if true, would make all those ‘Spawn’ #9’s way more valuable. A Scottish newspaper is claiming that Angela will be in the ‘Guardians of the Galaxy’ movie. True or not, we will find out when the full cast is revealed.
available on amazon starting at $4.95, here and here

Image Comics ‘Term Life’ to be made by Vince Vaugn
The team that brought you ‘Couples Retreat,’ Vince Vaughn and Peter Billingsley are set to turn Image Comics Graphic Novel ‘Term Life’ into a film according to Hollywood reporter, See the original article here. A quick check of eBay shows there are no copies selling in the US. Amazon shows quiet a few for sale below cover price.On Amazon for around $12.
Story description from Amazon: If Nick Barrow can stay alive for 21 days he’ll die happy! Everyone Nick knows wants him dead; Mob bosses, contract killers, and dirty cops. Performing the last act of a desperate man, Nick takes out a million dollar insurance policy on himself, payable to his estranged daughter. The problem? The policy doesn’t take effect for 21 days… and Nick knows they’ll be lucky to be alive for twenty-one hours!
‘Five Ghosts Haunting of Fabian Gray’ to become ongoing series
Five Ghosts the Haunting of Fabian Gray is going to be an ongoing series. Frank Barbiere stated at Hero’s Con this weekend he had big news about the series. Looks like the official announcement is coming soon.
I had spoken to Frank Barbiere a few weeks ago at a signing and he stated he let the news loose unofficially via twitter and Image didn’t react to much to him saying so. He also said it will continue with legacy numbering (not a series of mini series) but the name would be changing. It will still be called Five Ghosts but the subtitle will be changing.
Ten Grand issue 1 print run
As we reported on May 9th, the J Michael Stracznski comic ‘Ten Grand’ sold out its first issue at the distributor level in one week. With 67,218 copies printed of the first issue first print this should place the book within the top 20 issues sold for May.
The second issue, as well as the second print of number one, came out this week.
The second book in the Joe’s Comics line, ‘Sidekick’ debuts at San Diego Comic Con with a con exclusive variant and then later that month with at comic shops.
10,000 Hits
I wanted to give a personal thank you to everyone who has stopped by and read my blog. In just three short months of existence, we have gotten 10,000 hits. I think that is pretty fantastic as I have not advertised the blog other than having it in my signature on a couple of message boards.
Most of the hits are coming from google, where people are looking for “comic speculation” “comic book speculation” “comics heating up” (that’s why I used that title for the blog) and “hot comics”.
Please remember to like us on Facebook. Www.facebook.com/comicsheatingup once we hit 100 likes I will be giving away a random Phantom Variant, Ghost Variant, or store exclusive variant from my ever growing pile of variants.
Also, check us out on eBay, we sell as well as speculate, it’s how we stay in the game. Mention comics heating up blog and I will give you a 10% discount on all completed auctions this month.

So thanks again to everyone who has made this little blog such a success and a top listing on Google for comic book speculation.

Modern comics that are seeing aftermarket activity. Ebay, Amazon, CGC boards, Bleeding Cool, Lyria comic Exchange, conventions & my Phantom retailer network of 25+ shops are the primary source of this information. Not the top selling books in comic stores, rather the currently published, modern books that are selling above cover price for a variety of reasons.

HEROBEAR AND THE KID SPECIAL #1
BOOM ENTERTAINMENT
(W/A/CA) Mike Kunkel
THE INDEPENDENT ALL-AGES SMASH HEROBEAR AND THE KID RETURNS!
It’s Picture Day at Tyler’s school, and naturally he’s forgotten! But before Tyler can pick his good side, he has to sneak out of class with his best friend Herobear to stop an attack on the Simpleton Bridge from the mysterious Von Klon and his Sub-of-Doom! …and he better not lose his hall pass in the process. Don’t miss as creator Mike Kunkel relaunches his Eisner-award winning creation at KaBOOM! with a brand new original adventure!
A lot of people ask me why I like to speculate on modern comic books. Original Art, Gold, Silver & Bronze age comics are a much better investment. I’m a comic book fan, a voracious reader of new material. I love how new books set the pace for back issues. It is fast paced & never stagnant due to the constant release of new material. Right now modern comics are the petri dish of pop culture, comic shops the breeding ground.
I have been collecting comics since the 1970’s & been in the business of selling them since the 1980’s. I love a quality story & a great buy, equally.
I speculate on new comics every week. I always have & I always will. Purchasing modern comic books with the intent of making a profit is my hobby of choice. It’s impossible that every new comic week will generate a book of “Walking Dead class” potential, but it’s still fun to try to make savvy buys. You can sit back & wait for aces, or you can play the hand your dealt to the best of your ability.
Sometimes, I’m right. Sometimes I’m wrong, but I play every week.

‘Last of Us’ #1 heating up on ebay
Video game tie ins seem to be hot lately. With ‘Injustice Gods Among Us’ leading the charge as this summers heavy hitter for price increase.
Well looks like we have another. Dark Horse Comics released ‘Last of Us’ last month with a low print run and a commercial for the video game that ran on the ‘Walking Dead’ season finally. IGN gave this game a perfect 10. So the tie in comics could be hotter than they are now. First print #1’s are going for $15-20.
Picks of the week 6/5/13
Going into this week, I thought it was going to be a light week for speculation. When I got into the shipping list I saw that I was wrong. This week has a good crop of books coming out that are worth placing a bet on. So here is this weeks books of the week.
1. East of West #3 – this weeks big book. Hickman’s East of West has been hot and further along these early issues could be worth it and hard to find. Even with a generous over print of #1, it sold out and moved to a second print.
2. Polarity #3- yes it’s a great book. It has been a fantastic read and such an interesting story.
3. Kick Ass 3 #1 – Mark Millar’s epic “real life” superhero story continues and I ant wait to see who will be on the tail end of the violence, also the second movie should help sales of the book on the secondary market
4. Hero bear and the Kid Special – I loved Mike Kunkle’s original series and it was valuable on the secondary market because it was so good and had a small print run. The return of the series is appreciated and an help the older issues.
5. Thanos Rising #3 – Great read so far and with the Guardians movie coming out this mini could be shooting up.
Also out this week is Ten Grand #2 which I am looking forward to.
A book to buy just for the over:
Archer and Armstrong #10 8-bit variant. Man I love this cover
