Comics Picks of the week for 3/12/14

New comic day is just a few short hours away. Each week hundreds of new books hit the shelves. Each week we pick the books we think have the best shot of being hot. Here are the picks of the week for 3/12/14: Continue reading “Comics Picks of the week for 3/12/14”

More Guardians of the Galaxy Speculation

Here is one that I saw over at the google+ comic book speculation and investing page.
Drax the Destroyer’s first appearance has been heating up. Part of the big draw has been that his first appearance was in Iron Man #55, also the first appearance of Thanos. But one thing about the movie Drax is being passed up. Continue reading “More Guardians of the Galaxy Speculation”

Speculating the new Star Wars Movies

Here is a great tip I found over at the google+ comic book speculation and investment community.
It is well known that the new Star Wars movies are coming from JJ Abrams. The word around is that it will focus some on the Expanded Universe and on the children of Han and Leia. Continue reading “Speculating the new Star Wars Movies”

Diamond Comics Advanced Reorder List for 3/5/14

images
The Diamond Comics Advanced reorder list can be a great tool for comic book speculators. It shows what comic shops are upping their orders on before the final order cut off. They could be bumping up their orders due to a first issue selling better than expected, a new series getting heat on message boards and blogs, in store chatter, or what ever, they need more copies. This weeks is really telling (last weeks was kinda boring with all the All New Marvel now). Continue reading “Diamond Comics Advanced Reorder List for 3/5/14”

Last of Us Video game to get movie

We covered Last of Us American Dream a lot last year as the comic prequel, based on the game, was heating up (that is an understatement as it sky rocketed.) And then it cooled off some. If you were lucky enough to get stuck with copies, it may be time to think about selling them again as Deadline Hollywood broke the news a couple of hours ago that Sony will be making a movie. There are some big names linked to it too. Continue reading “Last of Us Video game to get movie”

Harley Quinn on Arrow?

Season 2 Episode 16 is going to be the one episode of Arrow to watch even if you do not watch arrow. The Suicide Squad will be in full force, and looks like Slade gets his Deathstroke mask. And looks like Joker’s girl Harley is featured as well. Continue reading “Harley Quinn on Arrow?”

Alexander Luthor Speculation updated.

Got an e-mail from Larry from Larry’s comics this morning in reference to this. Forever Evil #6 came out today and there were some pretty big reveals in it. With the big reveals comes some additional speculation.

Afterlife with Archie, the movie?

Thanks to Shima for this one!
If you haven’t gotten into Afterlife with Archie yet, you may want to reconsider. Issue four just came out this week, and along with it, news of a possible Afterlife with Archie movie. Continue reading “Afterlife with Archie, the movie?”

New Small Press #1's for late April and May

Small press releases are where it is at when it comes to speculation on new books. They do not have the print runs of the Big Two and if they heat up, they are much harder to find. Here are some of the release for late April/May to keep an eye out on. Continue reading “New Small Press #1's for late April and May”

Nova Corps in Guardians of the Galaxy trailer

If the Nova Corps is in the Guardians of the Galaxy trailer, that can only mean they are in the movie. If they are in the movie, that can only meant the first appearance will heat up. Continue reading “Nova Corps in Guardians of the Galaxy trailer”

Afterlife with Archie #7 Pepoy Variant

Afterlife with Archie continues to be a big hit for Archie. The Pepoy variants keep knocking it out of the park with their more racy costumes (lingerie) for the old Archie gal pals. Afterlife with Archie #7 is no different. Continue reading “Afterlife with Archie #7 Pepoy Variant”

Comics Picks of the week for 3/5/14

Each week hundreds of new comics are released. Each week we pick the ones we think stand the best chance of heating up.
I love Wednesdays! All the new books on the shelves. Untapped potential, new stories. This really is a good Wednesday too.
Continue reading “Comics Picks of the week for 3/5/14”

Forever Evil #6 Speculation and Spoiler

So there it is, will Nightwing die at the end of Forever Evil #6?
That is the question. DC sure does love dead Robins. If you haven’t done so, please take the poll..

Motley Fool's Investor guide to 2014 Comic book movies

I love when non-comic book sites take notice of comic books. Motley Fool, the investment site, ran an article in the final days of 2013 that I stumbled across and found interesting. It is on the subject of investing and comic movies, well, that is what we do hear, just in a different way than I think they were talking about. Take a look at the comic movies that made the list.

Walking Dead 127 Poll

wd-cover-127-dressed
The Walking Dead 127 cover was released a few weeks back. This is the first book post All Out War. One thing is sure from looking at the cover, no familiar characters, no Rick, No Carl, No Negan.
So just for fun (and yes it is not an original idea) take the poll below and let us know what you think will happen. Feel free to comment below as well.

Diamond Comics Advanced reorder list for 3/1/14

images
The Diamond Comics Advanced reorder list is a great speculation tool. It gives insight into what shops are scrambling back to order more copies of before final order cut off. These books could have heat from them due to a popular first issue, spec talk on blogs and message boards, customer’s asking about them in shops, or other reasons. But whichever, this is this weeks hot pre-order books. Continue reading “Diamond Comics Advanced reorder list for 3/1/14”

Chu reader question on what to buy

Got an email question about what to buy, our regular reader Jo is looking for suggestions. Feel free to offer advice in the comment section.
From Jo:
My LCS, which I have been a patron of for almost 4 years, is purging its largely untouched inventory of the past 10 years. And so, from the UK and GeeksUnleashed, I come to you, the knowledgeable readers of ComicsHeatingUp, cap in hand and ask – what should I be looking for/buying?
Firstly for entertainment, secondly for speculation dollars.
All profits from sales will be spent at the store in question anything but my pull-list.

Rocket Raccoon series announced from Marvel

Sorry for the slow week, February has been an awesome month for spec news, but also has been a busy month for my regular job. In the process of catching up on my RSS feed and passing along the news.
MTV got the exclusive on the upcoming Skottie Young Rocket Raccoon. Seems about the right time as everything Guardians and Rocket Raccoon are blowing up.
