What do you all think about restored copies for these books? I imagine any copy (even coverless) is going to be coveted to some degree. But what is more valuable? A high to mid-grade restored copy, or a rag (1.0-2.0)? I'm not sure what I would prefer. I do not like or own any restored copies, but i...

This is a fun page - highest comic book sales of all time: https://itsalljustcomics.com/all-time-r ... ook-sales/

Oh wow! What will be the next Action 1, Detective 27 or ASM 15? Hulk 181? ASM 15 isn't a big deal. :P AF 15 is a big deal though. :lol: Other biggies are Superman #1 and Batman #1, Captain America #1, in 1939, 1940, and 1941, respectively. But to guess what the next big, big book will be, I'll gues...

The current world record was set today. $3,600,000 for a comic book - CGC 9.6 Amazing Fantasy #15 - one of four on the CGC Census.

Hello, does any one have a copy they would consider selling? Haven’t seen any pop up on eBay aside from that absolute beater! I'll have to admit, I don't know which book you're requesting. Acclaim stand-alone... :hm: Valiant Heroes Special Preview Edition? (stand-alone with staples, not the one fro...

Btw bone 1 had a print run less than 10% of Harbinger 1.

Right, and if CGC 9.0s of Harbinger #1 start selling for 10% of CGC 9.0 Bone #1 prices when they hit 30 years old next year, the 9.8s will be much, much higher than today.

I understand your perspective. I just, respectfully, disagree with it. You can't compare the demand of an Amazing Fantasy #15 to that of a UK priced... anything. Well, unless it's Amazing Fantasy #15 (but I don't think the UK prices came until the 70s - could be off there). Those big ticket items a...

Despite not being a “thing”, finding pence keys in grade, if at all, can be very difficult. No one is disputing that. Your original post asked why they were less costly. The answer is no demand. Rarity unto itself doesn't make things pricey. That's correct... however, when there is a slight increas...

Maybe someone is betting Harbinger #1 nostalgia at age 30 (in 2022) will be like Bone #1 nostalgia this year.

Bone #1 (1991) has three sales over $3,400 each for CGC 9.0 in the past 90 days.

If even a fraction of that happens with Harbinger #1, it could be worth it.

GPAnalysis.com records a dozen CGC 9.8 Harbinger #1 (1992) sold on Ebay on September 3, 2021 (within minutes of each other). Just over $13,000 in sales. 9.8 - - $1,500 Sep 3, 2021 9.8 - - $1,350 Sep 3, 2021 9.8 - - $1,350 Sep 3, 2021 9.8 - - $1,350 Sep 3, 2021 9.8 - - $1,395 Sep 3, 2021 9.8 - - $800...

yes i would say unsigned Birth of the Defiant Universe is the holy grail of Defiant. a close 2nd would be the Plasm 0 one staple only 50 printed and 3rd the no seal Slatterball only 100 printed There were only 50 of these printed? I thought these were the same as what bound into previews just that ...

It's not something that was known when this was compiled: http://valiantarchive.com/valiant/never ... s-vh-1.php

It reminds me of the cover of Shadowman #12. Everyone is floating.

Oh, Deathmate is dreadful . I recently re-read it and was really stunned by a) how confusing they made it with no clear reading order b) cut crucial story stuff out for the preview editions and c) had such a lackluster story. But, like I said, it made me curious about Valiant characters and I start...

Print runs of 200? Seems like a lot of effort for the creators to make books that only 200 people are going to read I counted 378 Bad Idea participating retailer stores per their website. 200 might be off, but the print run for each of these books has to be ridiculously low. Besides, wouldn’t all t...

Okay, I didn't really think of this. So there's more traffic from zombies than living creatures meaning there's a Deadside on your server side and you need some sort of Deadside Intelligence Mechanism. I would write a server side script checking for those notifications that bounce back because of n...

I don't really know what causes this, but an educated guess would be... There is a never-ending log of email failures that the server keeps for notifications that are attempts to let users know about replies, private messages, or anything that's "followed" (with email notification). As a result, th...

Deathmate isn't the highlight of Valiant story-telling, but anything that leads people to the best Valiant stuff can be a legit part of the journey.

With the coupon, they left out some of the background shading.
