Comic Book Adds for the Week
As you might know, if you have followed me of late, I've attempted to refine my comic book collecting skills. Not so much on stuff, I like to read, but more on attempting to figure out books that will hold some value long term. Like any other investment strategy, it takes some luck to hit big. Since I'm not lucky, I've chosen to concentrate on books that are a) scarce, b) possible keys, and c) feature beautiful artwork. If a book has all three, I'm in.
First up this week is the image above, which I'll show again:
This the Peach Momoko Department of Truth number 1. The color virgin has a run size of 400 books; the sketch virgin is 250 in size. I remember passing on a 100 run size trade dress/foil...dumb! Not sure what I was thinking as that one is getting $400 USD on eBay.Still, I"m happy with these Momokos; the picture doesn't do the artwork justice.
Up next is Momomoko's Thor 6. A "minor Cates key" in the Thor mythos, the trade dress had a run size of 4000 copies. The virgin had a 1000 run size.
Last but not least is a second copy of the 1:25 2nd print of Magnificent Ms. Marvel 13. This features the first appearance of Amulet, and as you know, Ms. Marvel is picking up steam thanks to Disney +. This is my second copy of the book as I got it for a decent price on eBay.
That's it for this week. Let me know what you got this week, or any thoughts on the books above. Thanks for reading, as always!
How do you feel about Peach Momoko going Marvel exclusive?
honestly, I'm not really liking it. I worry Disney will exploit her to sell more books through ratios, and to continue to buy her work, I'm going to need another job...I guess her indie stuff should have more long term value now, however. I was really hoping for some killer Zatannas and more Gotham villains from her, but I guess that isn't happening. What do you think of the move?
thank you so much ! glad you liked the read!
