The hype off of Jackson's passing definitely makes this the best time to unload this book...but jeez!!!

Is there a census of issues of this book owned by CPG members? According to what I've found CapitalCity circulated only 1875 issues in 1989. I guess I'll be digging mine out...untouched since '89 when I bought it. Not sure what shape it's in but if it teeters the 9.6 range I'll be sending it off to CGC.

Why?

By the time you get it back, the world will have come to its senses and realized that it was an awful comic to begin with, because the man died doe not make it any better or more valuable.










Where does he get those wonderful toys!

I have yet begun to surrender.

I agree with the better part ... but it is definitely more valuable now.

You may be right. CGC $25 for 10 day turnaround could take too long. Straight to auction. "Strike while the iron is hot." I doubt it'll ever be this popular again. Thanks!

Future peak periods will on his birthday and the anniversary of his death.
The main problem is that you'll have to compete with the multitude of
Jackson crap that's out there.

Oy with the poodles already!

After a decade or so in the bargain boxes, I suspect there aren't many 9.0 or better of that comic.

Might be some in bulk boxes that have never been to a con.

There's more demand - it will never again be one of the lesser comics from the black-n-white glut.

A tiny sliver of non-comicbook people became aware that the comic exists and want to get one. The print run was probably under 30,000 - worldwide, how many people have seen him on the news lately? Billions?

The Moonwalker 3-D comic would be a nice addition to a MJ collection.

I think the funeral will be a huge media circus. Bigger than Princess Di (and the two will be compared).

(They took out his brain, to "run tests" - bet it will get taken by whoever has Hitler's brain - all part of a sinister plan )

You never know.

I just posted my Moonwalker up on eBay raw since it's only in 9.4 shape. I'd still be happy to get $15 since I only spent like $2.50 for it back in the day. Wish me luck!
