A NM copy of the first issue of Civil Was goes for 59.94. I bought 150 of these originally, but they are long gone. I did well, but not that well.

It was about a 7 or 10 dollar book until a week or so ago. It was always pricier than the other 6 regular issues in the series.400yrs wrote:Are you kidding me? What did these go for a year ago? Weren't these dollar books?

Re: Discuss Hard To Find Or Currently Hot Modern Comics
For some reason early appearances of Bucky O'Hare have been heating up/selling in my area. My local shop sold a 1st app for $25 and 2-4 for $10 each while I was there. Prior to that I had no idea what that Echo book was but it sounds like he has moved more of them this month than the past 5 years. Apparently there is a film or cartoon in the works and the book debuted the same month as TMNT. Might be more of a book to pull out in case it takes off than a good flip.

Sometimes the books featured on Comic Daily's "Undervalued" column see a little bump, and that book was featured recently:Trenton Sy wrote:For some reason early appearances of Bucky O'Hare have been heating up/selling in my area.

Re: Discuss Hard To Find Or Currently Hot Modern Comics
I thank you guys for mentioning this. I love that old style art (that was back in Neals Heyday IMHO) so I bought 5 copies at like $3 ea. fun to speculate on cheap books like that. And if I like the story it's a unknown series for me to collect. But I think this book has enough historical significance to make it collectible especially at that price point. So again thank you all.

What about Black Panther? That Priest run was so good ... would make a great movie.
