2/26/2021 Topic: OUR ARMY AT WAR #218 glorkar	Go into the "help verify data" link under the price guide tab at the top of the screen. https://comicspriceguide.com/verify-data You can then go to the book and delete your entry. Then you can resubmit with the correct info.
3/2/2021 Topic: The Next Batman: Second Son glorkar	Anyone else getting Black Panther vibes off this new suit?
3/2/2021 Topic: The Joker #3 Variant Cover glorkar	This just popped up as available for order from my local comic shop. Gotta say, I'm kind of in love with this cover. edited by glorkar on 3/3/2021
3/2/2021 Topic: The Next Batman: Second Son glorkar	I could see that. Never really followed the character so I had no idea honestly. Here's another look with the A cover:
3/2/2021 Topic: Comics Going For More What do they know? glorkar	Both of these book are pure speculation based on Disney+ television shows. WCA 62 is the first appearance of the Time Keepers - there are statues shown in the trailer for the Loki show that hint they might be major players WCA 56 is the first appearance of Dark Scarlet Witch - the Wandavision television show has basically been moving in the direction of The Scarlet Witch doing her whole "no more mutants" thing and turning evil. So basically if you watch tv and pay attention, you may pick up on little hints or easter eggs. That's all it is. Watching the right thing at the right time.
3/2/2021 Topic: The Joker #3 Variant Cover glorkar	Looks like release date is May 11th. I can't seem to find any reference to the book anywhere other than in my ComicHub app. It's not listed in Previews, nor on the DC site. Heck, it's not even pre-order on eBay yet.
3/2/2021 Topic: Heroes Reborn Event glorkar	Thoughts on this event / mini-series coming out later this year? It's basically a What If? The Avengers never assembled. It's a bunch of kind-of familiar characters that are tweaked. Squadron Supreme is the go-to super hero squad. I really do enjoy the blatant rip-off cough, cough I mean homage and nod to the competition :p It might be interesting, and it seems like it's canon since Blade (and only Blade) remembers the world the way it used to be. https://www.marvel.com/articles/comics/marvel-comics-announces-heroes-reborn Looks like there is an Artgerm variant featuring Power Princess though. Gorgeous art.
3/3/2021 Topic: The Joker #3 Variant Cover glorkar	Did not know that. Found one of the replacements distributors that has a decent site (Lunar). I'll have to start using them. This book is under the 4/18 final order cut off. edited by glorkar on 3/3/2021
3/3/2021 Topic: Character Appearances glorkar	I think the Characters section has been in beta for quite a while. It would be nice though to click on a character in there and see all the books they've been in. Comic Vine does a real good job of this. That's where I'll typically go to find out first appearances. For example, here is the listing for Moon Knight: https://comicvine.gamespot.com/moon-knight/4005-1493/
3/3/2021 Topic: Comic Resources glorkar	I didn't see a post anywhere that had a collection of comic resources. Obviously we all know and love CPG, but what other sites do you use when researching comics? This could be for cover prices, covers, artist, characters, stories, solicitations. Really, anything other than price (don't want to support direct competition on that front!) * to the mods: feel free to zap any of these that you feel are inappropriate. . Here are the sites that I frequently use: . Grand Comics Database (https://www.comics.org/) - Great resource for covers, prices, descriptions Comic Vine (https://comicvine.gamespot.com/) - Great resource for character information. Has descriptions, history, appearances (including first appearances) DC Fandom (https://dc.fandom.com/wiki/Category:Cover_Art_Galleries) - I use this sometimes to view back issue DC covers Comics Fandom (https://comics.fandom.com/wiki/Main_Page) - Good resource if you're looking for basic info about a particular series Marvel.com (https://www.marvel.com/comics/series) - Direct from Marvel resource of current and former series - CBSI (https://comicbookinvest.com/) - Good site with a ton of speculation info Key Collector Comics (https://comicbookinvest.com/) - Another site with spec info, but this one also has reading orders, books related to a specific topic and trend information - Diamond Previews World (https://www.previewsworld.com/Catalog?cat=1) - new solicits for Marvel, Image, IDW, Boom! and many others Lunar Distribution (https://www.lunardistribution.com/) - new solicits for DC Entertainment - CBR (https://www.cbr.com/) - Has a lot of articles relating to comics (print and screen) and other pop culture . edited by glorkar on 3/3/2021
3/3/2021 Topic: A Suicide Squad: The New 52 Question glorkar	If you go to the page for the main series, there is a tab near the top for "Trade Paper Back". Clicking on that will bring you to the collected volumes. Main page: https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/suicide-squad/tmrwi Page for the book you're looking for: https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/suicide-squad/1_trade%20paper%20back/yopsix Looks like it should be worth $12-$15.
3/4/2021 Topic: Brzrkr glorkar	Got my copy yesterday. Gotta say, I'm not impressed. The art style was too muddy for me. That first panel that had him punching through the guy's head had me staring at it and twisting /my/ head trying to figure out what exactly was going on. The story was lackluster too. It repeated too much for so little dialog. And the reveal at the end had me just shaking my head and laughing because of the number they chose. We get it, he's been alive a long time. But seriously? I may be in the minority, but I'm not gonna be picking up the next issue.
3/4/2021 Topic: Nocterra glorkar	Any one else pick up a copy yesterday? I was a little worried about the story, since they were pushing so many variants of the cover. You know, could it live up to the hype? I think it did. The art isn't bad and the story is intriguing. Enough that I think I might pick up the next issue, just to see where it goes.
3/4/2021 Topic: Department of Truth glorkar	I was picking up my Wednesday pulls yesterday and decided to check out the shelves. Wouldn't you know it, they had a full run of first print A covers on the shelf. Well, except for issue one. They had the B cover. I left it because I had already ordered an A cover online. Might grab it next week if it's still there. Issue one came in the mail today. It's another one where I'm not thrilled with the art. Guess I'm just a sucker for the classic comic style. But the story is definitely there. I can see why people like it so much. Not disappointed in this one. Think I'm gonna keep up on it. And if I can make some coin off it down the road, even better.
3/4/2021 Topic: WandaVision glorkar	Looks like I'm getting the chance to check this out. Was buying cereal today and there was an offer for a 30 day free trial to Disney+. I'll let you know what I think after actually watching it :p
3/5/2021 Topic: WandaVision glorkar	First three episodes did not impress. Any other show I would have been over it. 4th episode is much better though. Gives me hope for the rest of the series.
3/6/2021 Topic: missing: X-Men the Movie Adaptation TPB glorkar	I don't think it's the same book. Similar, but not the same. The one in our database is X-Men The Movie Beginnings. The one that is missing is just X-Men The Movie.
3/6/2021 Topic: Need Help to Identify Issue Batman 23.2 Variant glorkar	My guess, it's the same book. I would have to think that the only way to get it was in that box. I could be wrong though.
3/6/2021 Topic: WandaVision glorkar	Finished the series. The last three episodes definitely made up for the first three. There was definitely a tear jerker moment in there.
3/8/2021 Topic: Graded 9.8 vs 9.6 Do you think the market? glorkar	I'd love to see the gap close on more books too. I also can't justify 9.8 prices. I've only got two graded books and both are 9.6. I'm more than happy with them. I guess the lower price /should/ make them easier to get rid of if I ever let them go. So there's that.
