I see why they didn't add that book but one collector might put this with the Red Lantern series and another collector might put it with the Green Lantern series. As long as we have both clearly labeled and consistent with pricing, I think having both makes sense.

Books that Don't Make Sense
RonbatmanAdministrator

As we work through the incoming data on comic book values there are times when the data doesn't make sense. Raw prices above graded prices happens sometimes. Today, I spent some time looking at Amazing Spider-man 606 confirming the data. The average raw value is greater than the graded value in 9.4, 8.5 and 8.0
My best guess is that collectors who want graded books look for 9.6 and 9.8 for modern books. 9.4 which is extremely common in raw isn't sought after in a slab. I'm thinking about creating a list of these outliers. It will help you buy smart and it will alleviate confusion when you see it in our price guide.
Books where the raw price is sometimes higher than the graded price 1. Amazing Spider-man 606 2. Amazing Spider-man 607 3. Venom 3 (vol 4) 4. Ultimate Fallout 4
If you find more let me know and I'll continue to add to this list. Ron edited by ronbatman on 5/19/2023 |

In our newsletter today we are asking you to fill out our 2 minute survey. If you could complete our survey we would really appreciate it. I love reading through the surveys and analysing the data. I intentionally gave you several spots to write in answers.
We will use that information to continue to drive improvements and changes to the site. After the survey is over we will have a meeting to discuss the results and talk about your answers. Everyone on our staff will see this. To us, this is extremely important, so your 2 minute investment is worth the effort. Thanks, Ron |

Thank you all! There are some extremely interesting things from a data point of view as well as extra comments. Let me throw one piece of data your way.
Almost 80% of collectors will buy the same number of books or more this year. I thought there would be more pessimism in the market but collectors are seeing opportunities with lower prices.
The most interesting comments were...
When asked what's wrong with the comic book market someone answered, "CGC has a stockholm syndrome-like stranglehold on the industry"
When asked what could make collecting better for you someone answered, "More money".
Me too, my friend, me too. Ron |

And the winner is Xvipah with Battlefront. We added 48 new images, added dates and changed values. The easy way to figure this out was looking at recently uploaded scans. There were several great guesses including Jet Power, space aces the Beyond, and Ghost rider.
Thank you all for playing along. I will message Xvipah and then announce the prize! Ron |

I can see that you have bought comics and corresponded with some sellers. Which is good for both of you.
If a seller chooses not to answer you, that is their decision and loss. That seller who starts with "Max" has been on the site in the last few days so I'm not sure why he/she hasn't answered you. Ron |
