Black and White Spread convention teaser hits ebay
Man I need money. I need money to buy this book.

Larry's Comics Pick of the Week for 7/9/14
We always appreciate Larry from Larryscomics.net stopping by to drop speculator goodness on us. His past few weeks have been dead on. Here is Larry’s Comics pick of the week
Before I make my pick.
A public service announcement, an anti-speculator-y pick:
Don’t buy DC Comics Grayson #1
Just. Don’t. Buy it.
Make them respect THE source material.
Send a message.
It’s the re-packaging of our nerd culture for modest budget tv source material.
Publishers are now terraforming characters to better suit other media.
Dick Grayson first appeared as Robin in Detective Comics #38 1940, as Nightwing in New Titans #44 & tomorrow as an ordinary, generic homogenized action hero in Grayson #1.
Lame.

Top 200 Hottest Comic Titles and recent Back Issues during LATE JUNE 2014
Bi-weekly column and list compiled by comics historian Terry Hoknes of www.HoknesComics.com – hoknes@hotmail.com
This list is updated every 2 weeks. This list is compiled from my non-stop research of the current market. I believe these were the most demand and growing in value books this month. This list focuses on all regular edition covers. (Variants are not listed otherwise they would likely dominate the entire list due to instant high prices and calculated small print runs). If you think I have missed any hot MODERN titles/issues please let me know. Here are my picks of what I believe are the hottest comics at this very moment from all sold out releases of MODERN comics online based on back issue sales ABOVE cover price.
