Talk about anything you want, so long as it's about comics!

Recently I was watching some market activity on Dead Rabbit, a comic book that has been recalled by Image Comics. This was due to there being a bar in New York called Dead Rabbit that actually prints up comics on their menu and has trademarked the name. So naturally people are holding on to their copies of Dead Rabbit and the books are going up a little bit in value. Issues number one and two had already been put on sale by time the recall was issued. As first appearances are everything, it was pointed out that Image Plus had already done a preview of Dead Rabbit in their August - October issue. I think this even included a 5-page page preview of the comic. This would be Dead Rabbit's first appearance, technically. And so would probably damper a huge price increase on the recalled issues. Image Comics usually does preview almost all there upcoming issues in this magazine. So, anybody buying an Image comic hoping it would go up in value would have to realize that its first appearance was probably in this magazine. If The Walking Dead had appeared after this magazine had started publication would the first issues of Walking Dead be as valuable today as they are? I just wanted to point this out as most people are probably forgetting about the Image Plus magazine when buying their comics for future value.

Slightly off the original topic, Image Plus is a good magazine to scope out new Image titles. Usually they have previews and recently released articles that give you more information. If you're an Image fan, I suggest picking it up.
Back on topic, the whole Dead Rabbit hotness seems contrived to me.
