NewComics20130828
This weekly article will also take a close look at how popular the titles are and how close they are to selling out at Diamond.
This will give retailers and collectors a heads up with a reminder of books you want to make sure you get immediately!!
Sometimes books don’t sell out immediately so its worth taking a look back at series that came out in the past few months !
Comics can sell out very quickly so some titles on this list will be more valuable instantly the day of release !
Keep in mind that with 1500 comic stores – if even 20% of stores re-ordered just 1 copy each that would be 300 more copies sold !
So any comics on the list that still have copies left I guarantee are going to eventually all sell out.
Diamond data of copies still available listed below compiled on August 22 2013 (6 days BEFORE release date)! Continue reading “SOLD OUT New #1 Comics for August 28 2013 Release Week”

Terry Hoknes of Hoknes Comics weekly hot comics list. Terry has been ahead of the curve with independent books especially ‘Skyward’ #1 a few weeks ago. This weeks video features ‘Outliers’, which looks good and could heat up, as well as. ‘It Came’ from Titan comics
Normally, the Diamond Comics advanced reorder list gives speculators a good idea on what is heating up based on what retailers are scrambling to reorder before final order cut off. This week it tells us only one thing, GET THE 3-D DC covers for yourself and for flipping if you can. All the books have been allocated to stores. You may not get the covers. These books have already started selling for multiple times cover price before they have been released. They are sold out. Standard covers are being sent to fill the demand, but not sure anyone will care about the standard covers.
