Speculation: investment involving high risk but also the possibility of high

Bleeding Cool Runs Deadpool spec story on X-Force #1

So we ran the first 10 Deadpool appearances last night here. Got the question “are people really chasing these books?” Looks like the answer is yes. Someone was obviously paying attention because Bleeding Cool ran the following story today:
Speculator Corner: X-Force #1 Bagged With Deadpool Card. Really?.

Dear me no… another one to go back issue bin diving for. In this case, the local landfill may also prove fortuitous.
When Marvel relaunched New Mutants as X-Force #1 with Rob Liefeld, they did so by bagging the comic with one of five trading cards, encouraging people to buy all five, plus one to open and read. And they sold five million of the bastards.
So that’s one million of each trading card variant.
And just as X-Force #2 and its second appearance of Deadpool is getting bizarre speculator behaviour considering how many were printed, so are X-Force #1 copies, still bagged, with a Deadpool trading card.
And so what was once a fifty cent book, rose to two dollars… then to four… and then to eight.
More, much more to come, it seems.

First 10 Deadpool appearances

With the Deadpool movie announced for 2016, it is time to be proactive. Many of the earliest Deadpool appearances are dirt cheap in many stores back issue bins. These books could be great pickups, especially considering how well Rocket Raccoon appearances and Groot appearances have done leading up to and since the Guardians of the Galaxy movie. Most of those books were ones people would not have normally touched, and suddenly they were huge.
