You should be safe. That book was heavily ordered. Though I suspect many stores held back a bunch anticipating this news so they could sell them at a higher price on eBay. But again that's just a hunch.

Ultimate Fallout 4 has settled in at around $15. I'm still holding mine for the long haul, though.

Wouldn't TWD 127 be more coveted? I would hold onto those copies, far fewer than Outcast.

Certain Image books seem to get action on the back issue market for previews.

It will be interested to see what "we" decide on TWD #127

What's the deal with TWD 127? Is that new band of characters that show up there supposed to be the ones appearing in the upcoming spin-off TWD TV series?

Yes new characters. New jumping on point and The Outcast preview pages in the back.

This is a book I always meant to pick up because I think Miles is such a great character. Never got around to it before they jumped though and now I don't even have 1. So maybe I could take a couple off your hands Brian.

I have a bunch of copies of TWD 127. I used to just buy tons of copies of each issue to sell at comic conventions. 127 was the last one I bought a lot of, at about half price. Used to set them on Ebay and make $10 a copy or more. I have already paid myself back the cost of the books.

I am just holding for now. When Outcast gets closer, I am unloading.

Both Outcast #1 and Walking Dead #127 sold around 71,000 copies. Outcast #1 is reported at 71,788 and TWD #127 is at 71,352. Not really much of a difference.

Good idea. Certain sellers became aware of.how much that book was going for and broke out lots of copies, driving the price down a bit.

Also not much media surrounding the rumors about Miles being the films has slowed down quite a bit

Good point. You guys all know how important I think this character is, so this stuff all seems like short term downward pressure on the price on this book to me.

Is that including the second prints? I don't know, it just seems like Outcast was very speculated on, and hence not many copies will be stashed away in collections, just speculators selling to speculators.

I'm pretty sure those numbers are first print only, however I think the demand will be for the first print.

Both books (Outcast #1 and TWD #127) have a 2nd printing. I'm sure of it.

Maybe he is really a Timewalker and he threw in this error on purpose so we wouldn't suspect that he is really from the future and already knows what's going to happen? :hm: I bet he has stacks of this weeks hottest comic... I can't believe I have to type this....Teenage Mutant Ninja Turles 44 Death of a turtle. Valiant is hot, variant covers all over the place, TMNT movies and sought after comics, DC and Marvel making crappy books and ruining great characters...Holy hot tub time machine we are back in the 90's! WWRCD?!? (What Would Rob Corddry Do for those that may have missed those movies :thumb: )
