I wouldn't say that 2nd printings and beyond aren't worth anything. Look at Batman #1 (rebirth). The 4th and 5th printings are much higher than cover price. Scarcity and demand will influence pricing.

I still buy the Overstreet but I certainly don't use it like I used to. I look at CPG every day. I read the forum posts and I check the value changes. I update my collection. This website is so much more important to me as a resource for the hobby I love.

I still like reading the market reports and the top lists from each age but OPG has mostly just sat on my shelf since I bought it.

I really only look at it for Golden age and other key older books.

If I sold comics online, I'd already have parted with his comic.

It means absolutely nothing to me!
I'm not a fan of McFarlane's art.

I think the cover is boring and terrible.
I'm not a fan of Venom.

I made no effort to get the book.
I got mine cheap in a bulk purchase when a comic book store was going out of business.



Defiant, do you have a copy you're willing to part with?

I'm not familiar with "Timeless" (I'm really a DC guy) but agree on Virgin. They are super nice to look at but you're right, no data on the issue shown except, I believe, on the back or the indicia.

HI, I have some books that are still being researched by CPG with some over a year old and others 8+ months. Are we allowed to message the person doing the research to see if there is anything we can do to help get books approved?

I use them quite often for my more expensive books however I've also started using Mylite 2 and Full backs also. The Mylites will be a less expensive option (my comic stores sells them to me at $0.50 vs $0.15 for a regular back & board). Amazon, Ebay or if you plan to buy in bulk, check out egerber.com as that will get you even a better deal.)

I too have made the break from Social Media so I do appreciate forums such as this one. Ron's blogs are also interesting.

I believe its already there. Search Hush and scroll down to Batman:Hush. Clicking on it will show you the hardcovers but there is a tab for TPB.

One of the variations - the Comic Mint Mike Mayhew copy is listed as 1027 but without the store designation. I think it should be 1027-TCM-A
