Yasmeen #2 – Sneak Peek Preview
This is a great new series coming out of Scout Comics. Issue #1 was a great read and I’ve been looking forward to this next issue.
It also doesn’t hurt that the first issue was seeing some love on the secondary market. The most recent sold went for $20 with the one prior to that for $35. Was a cover price up until those two and now all the listings, which is just a handful are asking $29 or higher.
Atlantis Wasn’t Built for Tourists #1 – Sneak Peek Preview

Acquisition, Possession, Collecting, and Selling Comic Books; or “The Art of Letting Go.”
I want to apologize in advance if this article gets a little too philosophical or heavy. However, the concepts I’m writing about in this article are extremely fascinating to me on both a personal and an intellectual level. What fascinates me most is the quantum state that a comic’s value occupies when it is physically in our possession.
