These books have included Invincible 111, Itty Bitty Bunnies, and last weeks Brass Sun. Hope the trend continues as those in the know keep profiting off it.

THE DAKOIT WEEKLY SPECULATION HITLIST: MAY 28TH 2014!!!
Hey Everyone,
I had no idea this past weekend was so special. Yes, because her talentless majesty, Kim Kardashian, had finally tied the knot with the self professed douche-bag rapper extraordinaire, Kanye West. Forgive me everyone, for I was too busy irate watching the Toronto Blue Jays sweep my beloved Boston Red Sox away handily (yes you heard that right). You see, the Dakoit resided in Boston for 4 years and frequented Fenway Park many a times–ah yes, those were the days, hotdogs nestled inside slices of fresh sliced bread, awkwardly micturating away my watered-down beer into urinal troughs, and yes, the all-revered Bostonian accent uncannily transformed into a form of passionate vulgarity only reserved for the visiting team are moments I really miss. Continue reading “THE DAKOIT WEEKLY SPECULATION HITLIST: MAY 28TH 2014!!!”

THE HOT COMIC CALENDAR
By comic book historian Terry Hoknes of www.HoknesComics.com – hoknes@hotmail.com
As a comic book historian I love keeping track of stats.
So I thought it would be interesting to keep a solid log of every single comic that goes up in value.
This calendar is a log of every comic that suddenly becomes hotter and jumps in value with an actual date.
This list should be continually updated and I hope others will add any comics that I may have missed.
Over a period of time we can look for trends and make interesting comparisons
Here is the 2014 Hot Comic Calendar
