The cover for the RI and 2nd printing appear to have the same image. I believe the RI needs to be changed.

I think a lot of retailers put a couple of issues aside for backstock but would not be surprised if some were hoarding.

Hey Ruk, Glad you and everyone are doing well.

I think my last update to you was in December 2020 (back when Basement was only a handful of spots ahead of me...). I guess the good news is I've only dropped a few spots since then!

Here's my latest update:
12153 books
$141,919.28



I have to thank graded books for the jump.

That is very helpful, I was not sure about the pressing. I was just going through the submission form, seems like screening will let them determine best pressing options. Yikes... sticker shock! I had not paid attention to the Express or Walk-Through part. It's pretty pricey to put them through the process, Wowza.


Comicspriceguide.com ( this website smile ) actually has a pressing service that does an awesome job, for a great price!



They also pressed some books for me. I was impressed also.
