Well, we all know comic books speculation isn’t as exciting as Leofinance (Leo’s words, not mine, btw), but the best part about comic book week is that every Tuesday/Wednesday of each week, there is an opportunity to make profit. I personally don’t do that, as I prefer to hold long term for my daughter’s “analog collection” that will remind her of dear old dad someday, but if you did flip books today, I won’t judge you. I have no problem with it, and if you can make it work, I’m all for helping out a little where I can. Case in point – this book:
I pointed this one out two weeks; it’s a 1:25 ratio book that has a beutiufl cover completed by comic artist fans are all about right now. The artist’s name is Rose Besch, and the last two sales on eBay went for $200 USD and $188 USD. That’s a book (with some luck, mind you), that you literally could have walked into to your local comic book store and bought for $25 USD two weeks ago. Again, I’m not saying a lot comic book stores ordered 25 copies of Spider-Woman 9 cover A to get that one issue, but it doesn’t hurt to look, does it?
I still want this book for the Hattie Collection…but prices are too steep right now. Like that Peach Momoko Spider-Gwen last year, I fear I missed the boat on this one. But hey, that’s one good thing about comic books; new books are available today to pick up and speculate on.
So without further ado, let’s dive in:
Let’s get this one out of the way…this book has a cover price for $4 USD. If you see it today, do this: push whoever is in your way out of the way, grab it, and run to the cash register. Buy it, and then run home and put it on eBay with a picture. Why? I don’t know what is going on with this one (low print run, I’m guessing), but the last sale for this book went for almost $300 USD. I mean, who needs to invest in Cardano when you could buy this one today for $4?
There seem to be scams/ashcan type sales on eBay, so this is a weird one. Still, grab it for $4 USD today if you see it.
Good luck everyone! (and please let me know if you find one of these in the wild today)
Sales on this 1:10 ratio are heating up. I literally just tried to snap a copy for $16 USD, went to check it out and it was gone. No lie, it then showed up as a buy now option for $25 USD. I’ll pass, but…if I see this one for $12 USD in the coming days, I’ll grab it for the Hattie Collection.
Another 1:10 ratio heating up; this IDW is getting +$20 USD with multiple sales currently. How long will the Star Wars wave keep coming?
That's it for this week for books I'm seeing sales data for. Did I miss anything? Let me know below what I missed.
As for books to read this week, I'm looking forward to Swamp Thing's reboot this week. I love my Swamp Thing, you know?? I just really hope DC doesn't lay a big egg with this one.
