Little Archie - Incorrect Comic Age

This series is listed as Modern Age. The year range is 1956-1983 so this is definitely wrong.

Batman 1 CGC 9.4 sells for $2.2M

I know, right? I wanted to add this to my collection, so they should be selling it for much less. Maybe even cover price. To be fair, we could adjust for inflation. That would put it at $1.85.

You know both of those barcodes say $40, yeah? Neither one says $25.

Would it be a correct assumption that the indicia would state "The Amazing Spider-Man" then?
Or does this say "Giant-Size Spider-Man"?
Just curious. Because if the indicia is different, wouldn't that technically make it a different series?

Collectibles Group (NGC, PMG, CGC, etc) is Hiring

Just got a piece of currency back from being graded by PMG and they included a flyer advertising that they are hiring.
$1000 sign on bonus for anyone that starts before March 31st.
They gave a website for more info: http://CollectiblesGroup.com/careers

I'm not affiliated with them, but thought it could be of interest to some people on the forum here. Looks like all positions are in Sarasota, FL for what it's worth.

Would a press help?

More knowledgeable individuals will need to chime in on if that cover crease can be fixed. If it can, and it would improve the grade, it seems like it could totally be worth it. Just one grade higher adds $100 to the value. 2 grades almost doubles it.

Carnage Black White and Blood #1 Gleason Variant

We all know that Amazing Spider-Man #55 was a huge hit because of the Gleason cover art.
Carnage Black White and Blood also has a Gleason variant that is very similar. Will this one be as hot? What do you think?

Marvel has Strange Academy. Now DC is having a go with Teen Titans Academy. Might be worth picking up a copy or two. I have a feeling this one will be hot.
Release date March 23rd.

I'm gonna grab a copy when my lcs finally gets it in. Just the standard cover though. I mean, how can't I when it's from Keanu Reeves?

Looks like the published date on this one is off.
Legion of Super-Heroes Volume 3 Number 54:

I've got issue 51 in hand that is from Oct 1988.
I've got this issue in hand. It says "Winter" on the cover and copyright 1988 inside (no month).

A lot of people seem to really enjoy it. Idk. I don't have a subscription and this isn't grabbing my attention enough to pay for one.
I've watched a couple of trailers and the nostalgia bits are, in my opinion, more annoying than anything else. Like most sitcoms, the jokes feel forced. Remove the laugh track and it's just painful to watch.
The bits with future tech seem pretty neat though. Reminiscent of Agents of Shield.

I feel like it would be listed under X-Men: The Movie (https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/x-men-the-movie/ukvp) if it were in the system.
There is only tabs for "Issues" and "Specials" but no "Hardcovers" or "Trade Paper Backs".

Never occurred to me because that doesn't make any sense. It's not the same book. Not even close.
The book you linked (the one it's under) is a full comic published by DC.

This one is a preview sketchbook published by Wizard.


This is 100% misfiled.

That said, thanks for the find collectibleshop.

I believe it. This database grew organically and with the input of hundreds (thousands?) of users over the years. It's bound to have inconsistencies. All we can do is try to find them and correct them, making the whole thing a little bit better in the process.
