Market Watch-1 year after: Independent #1’s!
Hi everyone, my apologies for the last several weeks. Been very busy with a huge move and family festivities. Today I wanted to share some of the #1 comics from independent publishers (yes, Image Comics counts as one…still.) I bought within the last 2 years (excluding 2013). There are some caveats to consider with these current values/prices found on Ebay:
1) Some represent averages from a price range found on Ebay
2) Some are published earlier than 2 years ago, but bought within the last 2 years (ie. Morning Glories)
3) I have listed only those comics that I actually own. Continue reading “Market Watch-1 year after: Independent #1’s”

The Diamond Comics Advanced Reorder list shows what comic shops are upping their orders on before the books ship. These could be new #1′s, books that have got some heat behind them, 2nd prints of already sold out books, or stuff that buyers are coming in asking for. This week is a treasure trove of sold out books going back for 2nd prints. This means the first prints are long gone from the distributor and could be seeing an increase in price.

One way to guage how hot a comic is/will be is by the Diamond Comics Advanced reorder list. This gives retailers a chance to up their orders for books that may have caught some heat before the release and before the final order cut offs. So without further ado, this weeks advanced reorder list Continue reading “Diamond Comics Advanced Reorder List 7/12/13”

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.

Marvel Comics version of Angela. Original breaking story that Angela would be joining Marvel Comics Guardians of the Galaxy sent Spawn #9 soaring, now that people are getting their first look and further news of the plans for her, this book could take off again. Regardless, interst hasn’t been this high in a Spawn issue in years.

If you have followed me over from our old blog site, thank you. We will now be hosting on wordpress just because it is easier for us to deal with. We will still provide you with the same great news and speculation on comics that are rising on the eBay market. We still will give you this information before others find out so you can still find them in your local comic shops.

Thanks again, and if you are new, welcome and enjoy the speculation.
