One Year Later: 5/25/16 Spec Review
One Year Later Investigator
What up CHU Believers!?! Shawn B. back with another One Year Later round up, where we take a look at some of the comics that Anthony, Mel and Poyo specced on one year ago. Their specs turn out to be quick flips, slow burns, straight up misses, straight up winners and on and on. Sometimes they spec with their hearts out of their passion for comics. Sometimes they spec based on data. And sometimes they spec based off of the word on the street. Either way all of their specs appeal to a few or many collectors whether it is due to them having similar taste in writing or art, or just an opportunity for a collector to flip a book and make money to “support their habit”. So, this is our weekly chance to take a look back at how some of our buys from a year ago are doing today.
With that said…..let’s do this! Continue reading “One Year Later: 5/25/16 Spec Review”

What Up CHU? Mel V here with Variants of the week. Last Saturday was the inaugural Five Points Festival here a Pier 36 here in NYC.

Greetings to my Comics Heating Up and Awesomesauce families. Thank you all for reading this each and every week. Thank you all for the friendship, encouragement, advice and support.
