	#10: BIKER MICE FROM MARS #1 | MARVEL | 1993 | '90s kids have been sitting pretty as of late. Multiple generations are fresh off a TMNT nostalgia kick, thanks to MUTANT MAYHEM. But we're here to talk about a group that was touted as rivals of sorts. That's right, the Biker Mice from Mars! They're making a return, with a new toy line and T.V. series with none other than Ryan Reynolds behind it. Fans of the IP said to heck with it, lets' Rock n Ride secure the first issue in their limited series before any more info drops that can drive the price higher. We tracked it at a high sale of $212 for a CGC 9.8 copy and a current raw VF FMV of $32. #9: NEW X-MEN #114 – DIRECT EDITION | MARVEL | 2001 | This under-the-radar book is receiving some serious attention thanks to Deadpool 3, something we've seen quite a bit of lately. Mostly rumors, but often where there is smoke, there's fire. This book features the first appearance of Cassandra Nova, an astral plane parasite who replicated the DNA of Charles Xavier (who did so while Charles gestated in his mother's womb, effectively making Cassandra his twin sister). Wild, but they're rumored to appear in the upcoming Deadpool outing. Que the run on another former $1 bin staple! We tracked it at a high sale of $125 for a CGC 9.8 copy and a raw VF FMV of $6. #8: SPIDER-MAN 2099 #1 | MARVEL | 1992 | Seriously, this book just will not quit. Is it the new Spawn #1? One of those relatively cheap and plentiful key issues that generations of collectors aim to acquire. Featuring the first solo outing of Spider-Man 2099, it's quickly become a must-have thanks to the success of ACROSS THE SPIDER-VERSE and beyond. We tracked it at a high sale of $210 for a CGC 9.8 and a current raw NM FMV of $17. #7: INFINITE CRISIS #5 – JIM LEE – REGULAR | DC | 2006 | Blue Beetle has received a pittance of the marketing share that some other DC films have lately. This is surprising, considering James Gunn has confirmed Blue Beetle is part of the DCU reboot. But it's been oddly quiet, and maybe that's for the best. The community at large is still in the dark, but those looking forward to this project hitting theatres have made it a point to pick up this book, the first appearance of Jaime Reyes as Blue Beetle. We tracked it at a high sale of $200 for a CGC 9.8 copy and a raw NM FMV of $33. #6: SPIDER-MAN #7 – HUMBERTO RAMOS – TOP SECRET SPOILER | MARVEL | 2023 | Heeeeeeee's Baaaaack! Last week we highlighted that the fantastic Dan Slott had added this book in a CGC 9.8 as the first graded book within his collection. That's how much faith he has in the character, and based on the trends we've seen this book experience over the last several months, the community shares that sentiment. From the moment this book dropped, it has had a crazy amount of hype behind it, and it's only growing! We tracked it at a high sale of $121 for a CGC 9.8 copy and a raw NM FMV of $31. #5: CAPTAIN AMERICA #7 – 2ND PRINT | MARVEL | 2019 | This book was a flash in the pan when it first dropped, but it still did well enough to warrant a 2nd print. It featured the debut of the Daughters of Liberty, a team consisting of Sue Storm, Jessica Drew, Misty Knight, White Tiger, Annabelle Riggs, Mockingbird, and Echo. If those names sound familiar, they should, as nearly all have either appeared in a Marvel project or are set to! We tracked it at a high sale of $100 for a CGC 9.8 copy and a raw NM FMV of $31. #4: MARVEL SUPER-HEROES SECRET WARS #8 | MARVEL | 1984 | With the lackluster praise for another 'Secret" project from Marvel, fans are putting their hope in the Secret Wars basket. For a good reason, the storyline would be incredible to see on the big screen. Oh, and this book features the origin of the black suit costume, one that would later go on to become Venom. If you're reading this, you know why it's so popular. Nuff' said. We tracked it at a high sale of $875 for a CGC 9.8 copy and a raw NM FMV of $229. #3: BATMAN: GARGOYLE OF GOTHAM #1 – ASHCAN | DC | 2023 | Give us the edge, baby! Batman fans love seeing the Dark Knight's dark side, and this book is hyped up to be just that. With the DC writing debut of Rafael Grampa, fans are set to see a whole new rogues gallery set to face off with a Batman who has cast aside Bruce Wayne. There's nothing left but Batman and the darkness he brings to the table. The excitement for this book is palpable, and it hasn't even dropped yet! All brought about thanks to a preview story from this "one per store" ashcan that has been seeing a ton of attention on the aftermarket. We tracked it at a high sale of $60 for an NM+ raw copy and a current raw NM FMV of $42. #2: THE MIGHTY THOR #319 – DIRECT | MARVEL | 1982 | We finally got the teaser trailer for Loki Season 2, and internet sleuths have found quite the easter egg. For a brief moment on a billboard, we caught a glimpse of Zaniac! Zaniac is every bit of an obscure villain who first appeared in this book. So far, it's theorized that Rafael Casal will be playing the fictional actor Brad Wolfe, who stars in the production of Zaniac! It remains to be confirmed until more information comes out, but that hasn't stopped this former $1 bin mainstay from seeing some attention! We tracked it at a high sale of $55 for a CGC 8.5 copy and a raw FN FMV of $5 #1: CAPTAIN AMERICA #7 | MARVEL | 2019 | The Marvel slate of series and films is constantly in flux. Recently, a rumor started circulating that a Daughters of Liberty project could be in development. That caused this book to see an immediate jump, as their first appearance is featured within. With a cast consisting of Sue Storm, Jessica Drew, Misty Knight, White Tiger, Annabelle Riggs, Mockingbird, and Echo, it would make sense for Marvel to make the move. Most of the groundwork is already complete. Recent news has pointed to Marvel making Sue Storm the leader and focus of the upcoming Fantastic Four film. As a pillar of the team, it would make sense for Marvel to invest heavily in the character. And, with a roster such as the Daughters of Liberty, fans are in agreement. Until an announcement is made, we have to preach caution. As previously stated, Marvel is in a state of flux like never before. So until then, keep your eyes peeled! We tracked it at a high sale of $90 for a CGC 9.6 copy and an NM FMV of $14.

	#10: AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #300 | MARVEL | 1988 | Todd McFarlane's illustration of Spider-Man's iconic black costume has become a modern-day grail. Not only does it have one of the most recognizable covers in the AMAZING SPIDER-MAN run, but it is also the first appearance of Venom. While it's been a highly sought-after commodity, recent symbiote storylines in the MCU have helped propel this book to new heights of popularity. Additionally, the upcoming Spider-Man 2 game has also put a spotlight on Venom. The latest sales show that the market may have softened on this grail, allowing collectors to pick up high-grade copies at nearly half of the price they sold for two years ago. For the most part, this book has stayed upwards of $3.5K in value for a graded 9.8. That is still a decent increase in value from the 2020 days when a 9.8 sold in the lower $2K. Today, we tracked it at a high sale of $3,925 for a CGC 9.8 and a raw NM FMV of $539. #9: BATMAN: GARGOYLE OF GOTHAM #1 – ASHCAN | DC | 2023 | Batman is widely known as the Dark Knight. But how dark can dark get? Rafael Grampa uses his DC writing debut to explore the darkest parts of Batman's psyche. What happens if the Bruce Wayne persona is completely removed? Then we get the Gargoyle of Gotham. This book has tons of hype, thanks to a one-per-store ashcan sent to stores last month. The aftermarket is ready for this story, hoping it will leave a lasting legacy in the Batman fandom. We tracked it at a high sale of $78 for an NM+ raw copy and a current raw NM FMV of $42. #8: INVINCIBLE #120 | IMAGE | 2015 | It has been over two years since we were introduced to the Invincible animated series. Fans went on a wild ride through the bloody, gut-wrenching, bone-shattering, knuckle-busting, neck-snapping animated story of mayhem. If you think that's an exaggeration, watch just one episode. The series was well-received by many long-time fans and attracted new audiences to the fandom. Season 2 is finally on the horizon, and the series is returning to everyone's radar. This issue was under-ordered by many retailers and soon became a chase book for many collectors. In addition to the scarcity of the issue, it also features the death of Battle Beast (a fan favorite). We tracked it at a high sale of $150 for a CGC 9.8 copy and a raw NM FMV of $25. #7: X-MEN #130 – NEWSSTAND | MARVEL | 1980 | This is such a fun rumor to write about, and it comes from the production floor of Deadpool 3 and during Taylor Swift's epic worldwide ERAS tour! This issue of X-Men features the first appearance of The Dazzler, a mutant that can turn sound vibrations into light/energy beams. The character was initially started as a potential multimedia deal between Marvel and Casablanca Records, in which the latter hoped to produce music created by the fictional character. It is fitting that the latest rumor on Dazzler is that she will cameo in Deadpool 3, played by none other than Taylor Swift! Regardless of any particular feelings towards the superstar, no one can deny Taylor's massive star power. A cameo like this could send her fans demanding more of The Dazzler, leading many speculators to pick up copies of this first appearance. But remember, this is still a RUMOR. We tracked it at a high sale of $449 for a CGC 9.6 copy and a raw FN FMV of $63. #6: KNIGHT TERRORS #3 – CHRISTIAN DUCE – HULK #340 HOMAGE (1:25) | DC | 2023 | KNIGHT TERRORS has been putting out killer covers! Remember last week's KNIGHT TERRORS: RAVAGER #2 (1:25)? Here we have a phenomenal homage cover by Christian Duce, a retailer incentive cover that has increased its desirability. Aside from the phenomenal artwork, this book also introduces The House of Horror. This issue has a lot going for it, and fans are more than willing to pay the increased FMV for a copy. We tracked it at a high sale of $50 for a raw copy and an NM FMV of $20. #5: SPIDER-MAN #7 – HUMBERTO RAMOS – TOP SECRET SPOILER | MARVEL | 2023 | Here is a book we rarely see on our top lists (sarcasm). 99.9% of the human population has now heard of Spider-Boy. At least, that is the way it feels. The book was an instant hit the moment it was released. Both the FMV and the character's popularity have been consistently moving upwards. Even Dan Slott added a CGC 9.8 copy of the book to his collection. The more we hear about Spider-Boy, only seems to cement his popularity. And that's saying something! We tracked it at a high sale of $238 for a CGC 9.8 copy and a raw NM FMV of $38. #4: SPIDER-MAN: REIGN #1 – BLACK COSTUME | MARVEL | 2007 | In 2018, Bruce Wayne got in trouble for showing off his "Batarang" in BATMAN: DAMNED #1. The media went wild, and even non-regular collectors soon attempted to grab a copy of the recalled issue. However, Bruce's shadowy member's debut was not the first time we've seen a crime fighter go commando. This issue shows an alternate reality version of Spider-Man—older, withered, retired, and still dealing with the heavy burden of accidentally killing MJ through decades of radiation exposure (there's a little more to it). Not only that, but we also get a full display of his "web shooter." Due to this specific reason, the issue was recalled but never replaced. The 2nd print corrected the issue by removing the controversial panel. Collecting recalled issues is a niche fandom in the comic book world. Still, the uptick is specifically due to an upcoming series returning to the Spider-Man: Reign storyline with SPIDER-MAN: REIGN II by Kaare Andrews, releasing in November 2023. We tracked it at a high sale of $80 for a CGC 9.4 copy and a raw copy VF FMV of $8. #3: SPAWN #1 | IMAGE | 1992 | Spawn fans got a glimpse of hope when McFarlane announced that the movie was still in production and moving forward. However, that was before the writer/actor's strike in Hollywood. There have been no new updates about the movie since. In more positive news, McFarlane took the SDCC '23 stage and announced that Spawn would be featured in one of the world's most popular video games in October. The game's name was withheld from the panel, but the top 3 most heavily played games of 2023 are Minecraft, PUBG, and Fortnite. It's fun to think about seeing Spawn reign hell's fury down upon Minecraft… but it could be a game outside of these three altogether (as he's appeared in franchises like MORTAL KOMBAT and SOULCALIBUR. In the meantime, we tracked it at a high sale of $179 for a CGC 9.8 and a raw NM FMV of $43. #2: SPIDER-MAN 2099 #1 | MARVEL | 1992 | The web-slinging awesomeness of this book ceases to amaze! One week it drops; the next week, it goes up. Last week, this book was in the bottom half of the top ten list. This week, we see it shoot up to the #2 spot, likely due to the digital release of the Across the Spider-Verse film. Yay, good news! Now for the bad news. If you have not heard, Sony has officially removed Beyond the Spider-Verse from its release calendar. This is due to the writer/actor strike, which will likely push the film into 2025. Until then, we will rewatch the sequel masterpiece and relish the phenomenal performance by Oscar Isaac as Miguel O'Hara! We tracked it at a high sale of CGC 9.8 and a current raw NM FMV of $32. #1: NEW X-MEN #114 – DIRECT EDITION | MARVEL | 2001 | Deadpool 3 has been the center of all MCU rumors as of late. It figures that the reported multiversal adventure of the merc with a mouth will bring about whispers of cameos. One of those whispers is that of Cassandra Nova, the "twin sister" of Charles Xavier. She is an astral plane parasite who copied Xavier's DNA while he was gestating inside his mother's womb… talk about sibling rivalry. In addition to this cameo rumor, there are even fainter whispers that this will not be Cassandra Nova's only appearance. According to well-known leakers, it is likely that Cassandra Nova will also appear as an antagonist in the third Doctor Strange film. It is still very early in the film's development, and the outcome of the writer's strike could completely debunk this rumor once concepts and ideas are fleshed out. Until then, Cassandra Nova is the lady in the spotlight! We tracked it at a high sale of $300 for a CGC 9.8 copy and a raw VF FMV of $12.

Les 10 comics avec un coup de boost :

	Citation:
	#10: DWELLINGS #1 – JAY STEPHENS | ONI PRESS | 2023 | Interest in horror comics has begun to resurface, and Jay Stephens is part of that movement. After nearly 20 years, the infamous cartoonist returns to the comic scene with a horror anthology book illustrated in the most jarring way possible, with art akin to old Harvey Comics or even an '80s Saturday Morning Cartoon. The stark contrast between the dark narrative and the colorful illustration creates a sense of dissonance, which only augments the horror feel of the book. This wonderfully fresh, Hitchcockian story is making waves in the comic community, and we've seen interest pick up over the past couple of weeks. We tracked it at a high sale of $30 for an NM+ raw copy and a current raw NM FMV of $20. #9: ALPHA FLIGHT #1 – ARTHUR ADAMS (1:50) | MARVEL | 2023 | Alpha Flight has been a staple of the X-Men universe since their debut in 1979. Originally, the team was meant to be a one-shot fight with the X-Men. However, John Byrne's popularity was used to propel the team to new heights. Although it was his creation, John Byrne left the title after 28 issues. The team has reemerged in various limited series through the decades. In this iteration, Snowbird takes the stage in a dynamic and intriguing retailer incentive cover. Arthur Adams put out a stellar piece of artwork, and many collectors agree, doubling the value since its release a week ago. We tracked it at a high sale of $130 for an NM+ raw copy and a current raw NM FMV of $106. #8: KNIGHT TERRORS #3 – CHRISTIAN DUCE – HULK #340 HOMAGE (1:25) | DC | 2023 | The INCREDIBLE HULK #340 homage continues to turn heads in the DC fandom. The KNIGHT TERRORS series has produced outstanding artwork while seeing immediate value increases in the aftermarket. Christian Duce continues to add to those cover collections with this homage variant (and retailer incentive!). If more support is needed to make it a collector's item, this book is also the debut of The House of Horror. We tracked it at a high sale of $59 for a raw copy and a current raw NM FMV of $45. #7: UNCANNY AVENGERS ANNUAL #1 | MARVEL | 2015 | The rumor mill hits again, this time surrounding Aubrey Plaza's role in Agatha: Coven of Chaos. According to a Twitter leaker, Plaza will be playing the role of Rio Vidal, an enemy to both Agatha and Wanda. This would be a female version of Declan Dane, also known as the Emerald Warlock, who makes his first appearance in this issue. It's a bit less exciting than the previous rumor, in which she was set to play the embodiment of Death in the MCU… a role she was nearly born to play. Nevertheless, fans are happy with this rumor as well. We tracked it at a high sale of $10 for a raw copy and a current raw NM FMV of $5. #6: TOXIC AVENGER #1 | MARVEL | 1991 | Last week, a movie still, poster, and write-up were released with significant coverage. Directed by Oppenheimer actor Macon Blair, the Toxic Avenger's film update has made this project "real" in a sea of content announcements that never seem to make it to production. We tracked it at a high sale of $230 for a CGC 9.8 and a current raw NM FMV of $23. #5: INFINITE CRISIS #5 – JIM LEE – REGULAR | DC | 2006 | It took a flying blue scarab from space to dethrone the pink royalty that is Barbie. Blue Beetle won out the weekend, and reviews have been highly positive. However, Blue Beetle's weekend box office is reportedly the lowest DCU opening ever and has a long way to go before becoming profitable. However, fans rejoice in James Gunn's confirmation that Blue Beetle is part of the upcoming rebooted DCU. As collectors have been picking up Jaime Reyes' first appearance, we hope Blue Beetle becomes a new staple in the DC Cinematic Universe! We tracked it at a high sale of $250 for a CGC 9.8 copy and a raw NM FMV of $43. #4: NEW X-MEN #114 – DIRECT EDITION | MARVEL | 2001 | Deadpool 3 is truly pushing the limits of the multiverse. From rumors that the original X-Men will appear to visit Ben Affleck's Daredevil universe… the movie is ripe with possibilities! One of those possibilities is the appearance of Professor Xavier's sister, Cassandra Nova. Cassandra Nova has been rumored to be in Deadpool 3, but some rumors go as far as saying that she will also feature as a villain in Doctor Strange 3. Who knows which rumors are true or not? We know that rumors send fans into a frenzy to pick up the first appearance of a character. This week, we tracked it at a high sale of $200 for a CGC 9.8 and a current raw NM FMV of $22. #3: X-MEN #130 – NEWSSTAND | MARVEL | 1980 | The first appearance of Dazzler rises to spot #3, with her first solo series taking 2nd place. The solo series is likely moving at a higher rate due to the ease of obtaining a copy and the lower buy-in. While there hasn't been a firm confirmation, Dazzler's first appearance is yet another product of the rumor mill. It is continually fueled by fan art, depicting the superstar as the glistening hero (case in point, this is a great one). As we wait for an official announcement, we tracked it at a high sale of $580 for a CGC 9.6 and a current raw NM FMV of $193. #2: DAZZLER #1 | MARVEL | 1981 | Social media is divided on the latest rumor to come out of Deadpool 3. If you have yet to hear, Taylor Swift has been rumored to cameo in the film as the vibrant mutant, Dazzler. Why does this have the fandom divided? Most of the time, substantial rumors have many social media leakers leaning towards one side of the rumor more than the other. However, in the case of Dazzler, some leakers are stating that this rumor is false, while others are increasingly vigilant that these rumors are true. With no word from Taylor Swift, Marvel, or any other confirming party, we've all just been "dazzled" by this rumor and the market's response. It's important to note that, in the case of this being true, it would still only be a cameo appearance and not likely an extended role in the MCU (however, anything can happen if people love it). We tracked it at a high sale of $200 for a CGC 9.8 and a current raw NM FMV of $20. #1: AVENGERS #35 | MARVEL | 2014 | While there is no clear end in sight for the Writers/Actor strike, rumors have been floating around that Doctor Strange 3 is ready to begin production once the strike ends. Alongside this rumor is how the movie's plot will be pulled directly from the pages of a comic storyline called "Time Runs Out." In this storyline, Doctor Strange is seen attempting to stop multiple incursions as entire universes are set on the brink of collapse. Considering that Feige mentioned that the Secret Wars would rely heavily on the 2015 version, which saw universes collide, it's safe to say this rumor might have legs. Until we see more evidence to support it, we can only speculate. As a bonus, it is also the first cover appearance of Sam Wilson in a Captain America costume (although he doesn't appear in the story). We tracked it at a high sale of $100 for a CGC 9.8 and a current raw NM FMV of $18.

Mais comment je regrette d'avoir laissé passer le 1st printing de Dwellings alors que je l'avais noté sur ma liste et que j'ai zappé la FOC, j'aurai donc le 2nd printing.
