Top 200 Hottest Comic Titles and recent Back Issues during EARLY MARCH 2014

Bi-weekly column and list compiled by comics historian Terry Hoknes of www.HoknesComics.com – hoknes@hotmail.com
This chart is styled like the old classic Wizard Magazine Top 10 Hottest Comic charts that were published every month in the 1990′s.
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.

Comics Sales 2014 – February – Surprise high and low sales report

Market report by comics historian Terry Hoknes – hoknes@hotmail.com of www.HoknesComics.com
Every month Diamond Distributors reports the top 300 best selling highest ordered new comic books of the month
Retailers order new products 2 months in advance and must predict how well new comics will sell for them.
What happens every month is some titles are over-ordered and some retailers under-order.
As a stereotypical rule most retail shops will order extra heavy on all DC and Marvel titles knowing they might have potentially longer shelf life. All other smaller publishers most retailers will NOT take the same risk with financially.
Therefore the best selling comics of the year are predictably from the “big 2″ publishers and the smallest print runs and books that sell out the quickest are from the smallest publishers.
Let’s analyze the best selling comics of the past month. In the following list I will make notes of any comics I believe stand out specifically for having higher or lower orders than might have been expected. This will strongly affect the future back issue prices of these comics.
Batman holds continuously as the best selling ongoing series but sales have been down and sales this month were so poor in comic shops that only 1 comic sold over 100,000 copies.
Harley Quinn sales stay decently strong and each issue has been selling out and going to 2nd prints. If popularity stays up the early issues could eventually become valuable for future collectors.
Walking Dead – same as Harley Quinn. Orders are quite high but issues do sell out and many go to 2nd prints. If the TV series continues for a few more years these issues are likely to see price increases for future collectors. Walking Dead has 2 issues in the top 10 – this is a first for the title ever!
2014 is the year that Marvel is restarting all their series with new #1′s. None of them had crazy high orders and since Marvel only prints whats ordered they all sell out and have 2nd prints immediately.
Some very major series debut with decent but definitely not impressive numbers: Wolverine, Fantastic Four, Punisher, Ms Marvel.
Ms Marvel had the most hype of the 4 and yet had the smallest order and sold out. Marvel debuted other titles with even smaller print runs yet so these are the ones to watch out for if the public enjoys them.
Batman Jokers Daughter #1 continued its popularity and decent 51,000 orders.
Most of DC’s issues hit #28 this month and many steampunk variant covers that are all the rage right now. With the regular covers having print runs of only about 35,000 the variants will be a lot less common than the big print books. Action / Wonder Woman etc.
Looking at the rest of the list with a quick overview I will mention titles that I think the print runs were too high or too low.
If the print runs were too high then those copies are just gonna sit on shelves.
If the print runs were too low it likely sold out immediately at Diamond and in comic shops and has the best chance of all new comics to go up in value quickly.
PRINT RUNS TOO HIGH ?
As usual most Marvel/DC/Dark Horse comics do not sell out and retailers take bigger chances making these books unlikely to ever go up in value.
PRINT RUNS TOO LOW ?
Devils Hopyard #1 – 2,200 from Arrden Entertainment sold out instantly and hit $15.00 already
Black Science #4 came in at a decent 26,000. This was the best selling Image comic of the month (not counting Walking Dead). Sales have only slightly picked up so its likely going to be another sellout for this issue which keeps going to 2nd prints.
Lazarus and Deadly Class are the only 2 other Image titles that still sell over 20,000 copies. Image sales overall keep dropping on almost all titles.
Manifest Destiny #4 13,200 – why is the hottest comic on Earth so underordered by retailers !?!?!??!
Revenger #1 17,300 / Fuse #1 15,900 / Undertow #1 #1 14,800 / Apocalypse Al #1 #1 14,000 / Mercenary Sea #1 #1 10,700 / One Hit Wonder #1 #1 9,700
Once again Image comics debuts a bunch of new series this month and the sales keep dropping month to month. Any quality books are selling out quickly in advance at Diamond and retailers are not taking any chances.
Here are the Image comics that sold less than 5,000 copies this month:
Bounce #10 4,900 / Drumhellar #4 4,500 / Minimum Wage #2 4,100 / Krampus #3 4,000 / Voice In The Dark #4 3,400 / Think Tank #12 2,900 /
Royals Masters Of War #1 – new DC title with great reviews small orders at 12,700.
Cryptozoic Man #4 11,200 – still fairly small orders for the last issue of this popular series
Bunker #1 10,300 – sold out instantly with talks of a new movie – instant price increases.
Steam Wars #4 – a new issue of Star Wars done steampunk style – small print run as usual at only 1,500 copies.
PRINT RUNS – TOSS UP ?
Turok Dinosaur Hunter #1 – many variant covers with print run of 30,000 – still a high number and it did sell out but the variants will have over inflated demand so hard to say the future of this one.
Vampire Diaries #2 – TV show from DC major publisher but print run only 6,000 – either demand is not there any longer or retailers are not taking any chances.
GI Joe Comics – there are a lot of new series released each month but most have print runs only about 5,000 – long run these books could be harder to find.
White Suits #1 – Dark Horse 5,000 – very safe print run
DC Villains Month 3D cover 2nd print complete set – only 2,200 sets at $199.99 were made making these 2nd print 3D covers very rare for a DC product. Demand could possibly grow for the more popular ones like Jokers Daughter and Harley Quinn.
Manifest Destiny #1 – 3rd printing – print run only 1,800 copies – demand is so high for this title that 3rd print might go up in value.

Comics Picks of the Week for 3/19/14

Each week hundreds of new books are released, some heat up, most don’t. We go through the weeks releases and pick the ones we feel have the best shot of heating up. Here is our picks of the week for 3/19/14:

A look ahead to Wednesday 3/19/14

This past Wednesday was a great week for books. I was very excited for not one, but two Stray Bullets books. If you have not read Stray Bullets you can find many of the first series issues cheap on eBay. It is an over the top crime drama book, done really well, very seedy, which was self published by Dave Lapham. Continue reading “A look ahead to Wednesday 3/19/14”

Joan of Arc Ongoing series from Big Dog Ink

I have been a big fan of Zenescope books for their flip potential. I have made some very good money off selling early copies of Grimm Fairy Tales, and have continued to try to look for books that capture the same audience. As of late, I have been spec-ing on Big Dog Press books because of the low print runs and dynamic artists they feature on the covers, that are often sought after by collectors. Continue reading “Joan of Arc Ongoing series from Big Dog Ink”

Video Nasty: UK Horror Comic Debut

I love small press horror books. I love the 1980’s slasher movies I used to rent at VHS video stores. I loved the box art that may not have anything to do with the actual video inside. Being a child of the 80’s I grew up on a steady diet of these types of horror movies, and comic books,(and skate boarding but that is really irrelevant.) At just shy of 40, I still hold all these things dear still. But what does this have to do with comic books? There is a new comic debuting this weekend out of the UK that reminds me of all these things, called Video Nasty. Continue reading “Video Nasty: UK Horror Comic Debut”

Diamond Comics Advanced Reorder List for 3/13/14

The Diamond Comics Advanced Reorder list shows what comic shops are going back to get more copies of before the final order cut off. These are books that had a hit first issue, are getting talked about on blogs and message boards, are getting in store chatter or question. What ever the reason, this list is a great spec tool for predicting what is going to be hot. Continue reading “Diamond Comics Advanced Reorder List for 3/13/14”

Comics Picks of the week for 3/12/14

New comic day is just a few short hours away. Each week hundreds of new books hit the shelves. Each week we pick the books we think have the best shot of being hot. Here are the picks of the week for 3/12/14: Continue reading “Comics Picks of the week for 3/12/14”

More Guardians of the Galaxy Speculation

Here is one that I saw over at the google+ comic book speculation and investing page.
Drax the Destroyer’s first appearance has been heating up. Part of the big draw has been that his first appearance was in Iron Man #55, also the first appearance of Thanos. But one thing about the movie Drax is being passed up. Continue reading “More Guardians of the Galaxy Speculation”

Speculating the new Star Wars Movies

Here is a great tip I found over at the google+ comic book speculation and investment community.
It is well known that the new Star Wars movies are coming from JJ Abrams. The word around is that it will focus some on the Expanded Universe and on the children of Han and Leia. Continue reading “Speculating the new Star Wars Movies”

Evil Empire #1 from Boom! Studios sold out

Thanks to Larry from www.larryscomics.net for the info.
Evil Empire #1 from Boom Studios has sold through its print run at Diamond Comics. Expect a second print. Evil Empire is Max Bemis’s (Say Anything) new comic. It is a really good read for a first issue and the unrelated follow up to his first hit comic Polarity. Continue reading “Evil Empire #1 from Boom! Studios sold out”

Diamond Comics Advanced Reorder List for 3/5/14

images
The Diamond Comics Advanced reorder list can be a great tool for comic book speculators. It shows what comic shops are upping their orders on before the final order cut off. They could be bumping up their orders due to a first issue selling better than expected, a new series getting heat on message boards and blogs, in store chatter, or what ever, they need more copies. This weeks is really telling (last weeks was kinda boring with all the All New Marvel now). Continue reading “Diamond Comics Advanced Reorder List for 3/5/14”

Last of Us Video game to get movie

We covered Last of Us American Dream a lot last year as the comic prequel, based on the game, was heating up (that is an understatement as it sky rocketed.) And then it cooled off some. If you were lucky enough to get stuck with copies, it may be time to think about selling them again as Deadline Hollywood broke the news a couple of hours ago that Sony will be making a movie. There are some big names linked to it too. Continue reading “Last of Us Video game to get movie”

Harley Quinn on Arrow?

Season 2 Episode 16 is going to be the one episode of Arrow to watch even if you do not watch arrow. The Suicide Squad will be in full force, and looks like Slade gets his Deathstroke mask. And looks like Joker’s girl Harley is featured as well. Continue reading “Harley Quinn on Arrow?”

Alexander Luthor Speculation updated.

Got an e-mail from Larry from Larry’s comics this morning in reference to this. Forever Evil #6 came out today and there were some pretty big reveals in it. With the big reveals comes some additional speculation.
Continue reading “Alexander Luthor Speculation updated.”

Afterlife with Archie, the movie?

Thanks to Shima for this one!
If you haven’t gotten into Afterlife with Archie yet, you may want to reconsider. Issue four just came out this week, and along with it, news of a possible Afterlife with Archie movie. Continue reading “Afterlife with Archie, the movie?”

New Small Press #1's for late April and May

Small press releases are where it is at when it comes to speculation on new books. They do not have the print runs of the Big Two and if they heat up, they are much harder to find. Here are some of the release for late April/May to keep an eye out on. Continue reading “New Small Press #1's for late April and May”

Nova Corps in Guardians of the Galaxy trailer

If the Nova Corps is in the Guardians of the Galaxy trailer, that can only mean they are in the movie. If they are in the movie, that can only meant the first appearance will heat up. Continue reading “Nova Corps in Guardians of the Galaxy trailer”

Afterlife with Archie #7 Pepoy Variant

Afterlife with Archie continues to be a big hit for Archie. The Pepoy variants keep knocking it out of the park with their more racy costumes (lingerie) for the old Archie gal pals. Afterlife with Archie #7 is no different. Continue reading “Afterlife with Archie #7 Pepoy Variant”
