Comics Picks of the week part 2 for deliver 1/22/14
I purposefully left a book off my picks of the week this week. That book was DEADLY CLASS #1. I left it off because there are seven different variants for the book, and for an Image #1 that usually means a big print run. In addition to there being a standard A and B cover, there is a Forbidden Planet variant
, an Eh! Variant
(think Canadian Phantom or Ghost Variant), a Beachballs/Laughing Ogre Cover
, Third Eye Comics Variant
, and a DCBS Variant. I also left it off because I wanted to Spotlight one of the covers. The cover I picked up and wanted to Spotlight was the sweet looking Third Eye Variant
by Harper Jayten. I have done well in the past selling their variants, and do most of my eBay sales on Phantom and Third Eye Variants.
This book has sold out and has been getting solid reviews overall, no matter what the cover, and could have potential, especially on the heels of Rick Remender’s other recent success Black Science.

Top 200 Hottest Comic Titles and recent Back Issues during EARLY JANUARY 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.
