Value Research and Suggesting

Hi Ron, I shot you an email with some example data that I'm pulling together to be sure that it's what you're looking for.

quick question. You mentioned that an average was not need. How do you generally work out the 9.4 value from a group of sold listings? Just want to know for my general research when looking at price points.

That was me :-)

that's really interesting, thanks Ron. It's cool to see the modern pattern of what people find important in the batman story.

Should also be noted that they are not all necessarily 'suddenly' shooting up. A lot of the low print run comics from Spawn have been high for some time, and they are now getting updated in the database.

I think it will totally depend on who writes for her next, she could have some staying power, and be a fun character, but only if they do her right. Otherwise she'll just be another throwaway. Personally, I hope she sticks around, I like her.

Hi, I'm not a master grader or anything, but I did find this for you. Seems to be a similar 'issue'

I've never used them for storage in general, like you I think a bag, board and box is enough. However, I do like to use them (and I like it when other people use them) when shipping a valuable comic.

Savage She-Hulk 25 Pin-Up

Hey y'all, kind of a weird one here... does anyone know what the pin up looks like in Savage She-Hulk 25? I picked up a nice copy of it, and while adding it to the collection I noticed that it should a pinup in it. So I took a quick look at the center of the book (where I generally think of the pin up going) and didn't see anything. In the back of the book are some what I would think of as single splash page images, and so maybe that's the pin up? Just trying to be sure I have a complete copy as it's in great shape otherwise.

Thanks!

Yes, it is the 80s series. Ok, thanks. I thought that those two pages at the end might be it, but just seemed weird to think of a pin up that required you to actually cut the book up rather than just pull the cent fold out. Thanks for the help!

There was an interview recently with McFarlane that talked about this, and I expect that's why it's now showing up and being talked about. McFarlane said it was maybe a 40/60 split or even a 50/50. So no expected value change.

I think they start talking about it around the 245 mark.

Batman/Fortnite books

yeah, I think if you get all the covers you get some kind of special batman skin to play in the game. I don't play the game so have no real interest in the books.. I do hope that DC doesn't try to introduce some new big 'important' character in them and make them some kind of key that I need to think about :-)

Daredevil #9 Values

the 2020-2021 increase isn't super surprising to me simply because of the general interest in minority and female representation that comic book world is seeing right now. Echo is a double whammy there (triple including representation of deaf individuals). I think it's nice to see that interest is trending to inclusion. Though I do expect the value will trend back down a bit in the coming years.

I've started doing that with $30+ books.



Same here. I've still got some to swap out but that's my general plan.

agreed. I would like to see them finally lean into and solidify their relationship in the normal continuity the way they did do with Batman and Catwoman, but this is a good, fun start.

This would be a great feature for those who really like to collect keys rather than runs. One question: In the details where a 'normal user' can put in information like the writer, inker and story info, is there a way to add an appearance? I have done that a few times, and just put it in the 'story' section. Is that good for what you all are looking to do, or is there a field that could be made available somewhere that we could update to help out?
