Missing Variants

HI administrators,

I've read that only variant Dynamic Forces books would be considered for adding to the CPG database. I have one of these:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Dynamic-Forces-The-Creator-039-s-Series-Death-of-Superman-75-Signed-by-Jerry-Siegel-/173527566357?hash=item28670c8815%3Ag%3AJ3IAAOSwMudbfJfc&nma=true&si=PNDsMsDewU1Qwkn7xLN9TE7lvEA%253D&orig_cvip=true&nordt=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557

And it's the normal cover but this was part of a set called "The Creator Series" and not sure if that is variant enough for consideration.

Ron can answer for sure, but my guess is no, because it's still a regular edition COVER that just signed, not a variant cover. the sig and packaging etc. doesn't qualify it for variant listing, only the cover would.



Thanks!!!

QuinnsPuddin, the two covers you picked are awesome but very different. Retro with the Timm cover and dark and brooding with the Mattina. Nice covers

BasementComics, very few things in life are better than the original but the Alex Ross cover is one of them. Amazing cover. That book has room to go up in value based on the numbers I'm seeing.



I just checked that tribute cover on ebay and I'm seeing sales for non-graded books $169+. Insane.

Can someone do a check on Detective Comics 80 and 85 also? It seems they are going for a lot more on the auction site than what is priced on CPG.

Detective 85 sold on ebay ungraded for over $2000

Hi Ron,


The newest April Walmart issues are out. Please see below for pictures of Batman and Superman issues. I've submitted Batman issue 10 as a missing book.

Donald,
I'm currently working on the Scott Snyder Detective run and should have all issues from 871-881 updated today. For the Golden age stuff several adjustments were made for grades that sold recently from Detective 80 to 84. You won't see these appear on the recently changed list because all values didn't change. There were quite a few middle grades that saw jumps. Those old Tec's are so amazing to me and extremely difficult to find.



Thank you Ron for taking a look.

Hi, can you take a look at pricing as both first print covers as well as the 2nd print appear to be selling higher on ebay.

Sold auctions.

Hi Ron,

Can you check the price on the Detective Comics Giant from Walmart? They seem to be going for 6x + what CPG has it priced for.

https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_nkw=detective+comics+giant+80th&_sacat=0&rt=nc&LH_Sold=1&LH_Complete=1

Since April 27, sales have been in the $30-$40 range.

Thanks

Does anyone ever buy these? I believe they are ad-less but am wondering if the font size is any bigger than what the normal book offers.
