What Should I Have Jim Lee Sign?

KDS, you hit on something in your post that is important. Jim Lee art is so undervalued. Maybe because he has such a long tenure or that he has been prolific. There are so many great covers done by him. Someday, we will miss him and an appreciation for his art will cause an increase in value. (IMO)

Savage Dragon isn't included in the list because he's an anthropomorphic dragon, not a "real" dragon. smile Stjepan Sejic continuejs to imprejss me even if I cannjot spjell his name. I'm pretty sure it's the J's

Hot New Issues

Last night I went to a local comic shop to get a pulse of things. This is what he mentioned.

Fantastic Four #1 sold out of his store by Saturday. All variants. (I've noticed the Stanley Lau Invisible Woman cover is selling above cover on eBay now.)
Venom - Everything Venom is sold out. Technically he had a third printing of #1 but that's it.
Batgirl #25 - He is expecting this to sell out based on preorders and hype on Wednesday.

Back Issues
Everything related to Batwoman is hot right now. 52 #9 and #11

What are all of you hearing and seeing at your local comic shop? Sounds like I might need to add things to my blog post.

Those of you having trouble, can you send me a screenshot and let me know your monitor size and browser? On my machine which has a huge monitor, I cannot see the issue. We believe you and want to fix it so please send more info.

John,
If you look at this page you'll see that we are always adjusting pricing.

Those are just recent changes. If you have something specific that you would like for us to look at please let me know and I will look into today. 1,037,000 comic books is a lot to keep updated so we need everyone's help.
Thanks for being a part of it!

This is the one he's talking about...

I just adjusted the price. It looks like it had very low production numbers and has over 20 finished sales on eBay for way over cover.

I know that it was part of the coloring process. Printing companies would use cyan, magenta, and yellow and mix them for all the colors. That is a strip of Magenta on the top of that book. I'm not sure why it was done though.

Are you talking about Rock and Roll Biographies #1 with Slayer on the cover??? Always look in the front cover of the book to see the real title, sometimes the cover doesn't always show the correct title.

I looked here locally for Riptide and didn't see it. On eBay the prices are skyrocketing up. Crazy for a book I've never heard of.

Raz, typically people send me an email and say look at this specific title or book. If the book has numerous volumes, let me know which one you're talking about. We will also consider other sources like Heritage, Comic Link, Facebook auctions (limited) and our own sales. [email protected]

I agree with Solarno, they do not affect value. It was part of the process to create books.

Doug, when you look in the front cover of the book what does it say the title is? Uncanny X-men? X-men? X-men Road to Onslaught? In the regular x-men title there was a storyline about Onslaught in 1996.

Second question, is this a comic or a trade paperback?

Draven, I'm currently running a test on your account to see if your value will change. I wrote down your collection value and found a book in your collection that needed a minor price change and made that change. It takes 15 minutes maximum for the database to update that price in your collection. In just a few minutes we will know if there is a specific problem with your account value.

That is a weird one. I've adjusted the price to reflect the current market.
