Re: Discuss Hard To Find Or Currently Hot Modern Comics
i think its really sad i can still find 1-7 and the issue zero(multiple at that) at my LCS and since issue #8 had R.I.P on the cover their sold out the first day..robin died once already i even wonder if this is going to stick..
it sucks i didn't want to hoard the book i just wanted it cause im actually reading it not trying to make a quick buck on this.
maybe DC should put R.I.P in all their titles so it will sell

I was able to score 2 of the batman inc. #8 at my LCS today. They have a few more left if anyone wants me to check back tomorrow - all on the ones on the shelf had the same little spine ding so I passed on picking up more.
Also the new Black Beatle books have been selling very well at the two shops I frequent - sold out of 40 1's between them with strong reorders. Francavelli covers always sell well according to my guy here.

Batman inc 8 will most likely be a flash in the pan, like Captain America 25 or any other similar issues.

I can see that.
I was not fully in the game with Cap #25, but I can tell you that Bat Inc 8 is GONE everywhere down here. And everywhere down here is a bunch of everywhere. I do not think it has big $$$$ in it's future, or that it is an "investment" book.
But it could be a new 52 "#4" book in terms of price. It did sell out lickity split.

I think if you really want to speculate on a Batman book right now, it's issue 7, the first appearance of Harper Row.

I know Harper is scheduled to play a more prominent role in an upcoming Batman issue. I also think she has the potential to be a very popular Robin.

Re: Discuss Hard To Find Or Currently Hot Modern Comics
Not at all, I'm disagreeing with you. I'm dropped Batman Inc at issue 5 but bought this one. I finally gave up on the Morrison Batman saga as the new 52, post flashpoint, DC universe has made it difficult to read as it doesn't really match continuity. But at the same time I want to know what happened to Damian, a character I've liked and read about for the past 6(?) years. MANY people will be in the same boat having read some of Damian's story throughout this time period and will therefore want to know what happens, couple this with Batman Inc not being a 100,000 seller normally the demand quickly outweighs the supply, this is before speculators or hoarders even get involved. Not every sell out is due to speculation, that's a very cynical look at comics which generally aren't worth anything in a month or two anyway.jenkinsMachine wrote:you didnt get at all what i meant by it.. whats the sudden interest in this comic since its has R.I.P on the cover...ian_house wrote:So get the digital or second print?jenkinsMachine wrote:i think its really sad i can still find 1-7 and the issue zero(multiple at that) at my LCS and since issue #8 had R.I.P on the cover their sold out the first day..robin died once already i even wonder if this is going to stick..
