Not sure how that works when it comes to variants....such as the foil to detective 880...I think technically it's a first print, but the inside cover (indicia) probably gives it a new title like "special convention edition". When that happens the printing number scheme starts over, regardless of the remainder of the interior.

either way, shop variants seem to be treated like separate editions more than separate printings. And their value determined more by what art is on the cover (or scarcity of the print run) than what's on the interior (i.e, the story). When you take that into consideration 1st, 2nd or later printings matter very little from value/speculation standpoint.

okay so this story just gets better. I felt 15.95 for a.connecting party set was a nice deal and ordered two sets....my books arrived today and this happened.


Apparently they sold out of the regular connecting party and sent me "virgin Variants" instead...does that look right? I wasn't sure so I checked their site and it appears they are in fact sold out of the regular version.....so I assume they sent these instead in place of and did not say anything. Since I do not collect variants I assume this free upgrade is a good thing and I should be happy based on the fact the virgin version costs double...do I have this right?

It doesn’t sound right, I think they sent you the wrong comics. If you got your order in before they sold out online you should have gotten the copies you ordered. They would contact you otherwise. I’m sure they have extras that aren’t up for sale, especially If some got sent in for grading they sometimes relist what didn’t pass 9.8 screening.

but do you like them better than the trade dress? If your plan was to flip, you definitely made out. How many sets did you buy?

I don't know about these books in particular, but in general virgin covers are more rare and have a higher price than their equivalent trade dress. I don't know if they also appreciate or keep value better.

It’s terrible. Unless you like Salvador Dali.

Much prefer the Inhyuk Lee variant. Likely rarer print run too.

Devil Hulk. My guess, anyway. I picked up the Hulk Vol 2 run from 13-20 the past few weeks...and 27/28 too (Devil Hulk covers).

I'm sticking with Ross covers as I'll be keeping a compete run ... they are by far the best , though not as rare.

The variants are all going to be flippers in near term for those into that I guess

I’m wondering if the market didn’t finally collapse at 16. Considering the 1:25 ran on to a second print makes me wonder.

Yeah, I've been watching ebay since I started this thread and it seems like the prices are returning to reality.

It is a solid series tho

I didn’t make it to lcs until 4 today and there had to have been 15 copies there still at least. With that being said I did pay my buddies mom who has a diamond membership 100 for the second print 1:25, 😂😂😂😂😂. I can’t help myself. Ultimately it’s an awesome story and I don’t give a $&@).

Comic shops probably over ordering to get the 1:25 which are going for huge premium on cover price

We all knew this time was coming

Wait until the second print comes out....gonna be a lot of the regular cover collecting dust on shelves. Most shops charged a premium to get the 1:25 2nd print variant ($50+) which likely paid for cost to order 25 unwanted copies of the 2nd print regular cover.

I don't really agree...I think the Ross covers will keep selling this book even as orders are catching up to demand....by example consider the short lived Zatanna series and in specific the Hughes covers from the set. I also think we have another event coming around issue 19 that will fan the flames.

When you think of epic hulk covers ...issue 14..issue 15 B cover...issue 16...he is just hitting his stride here and if he keeps going these books have nowhere to go but up. Writing and interior art are solid...as long as that continues it will only keep growing. The variant covers and all aside, I think the book still has room to grow.

Have to realize that issue 16 released to two other covers besides the regular cover...the 1/25th and the Asgardian cover? I think...….so a lot of those copies that would have gone to people buying extra issue 16 instead translated to buying copies of these other covers....

The Last one is a Comicxposure shop variant. People here will tell you to steer clear of them. Try NYCollectorscave or wait for some to show up at midtown comics in a few months.

Dell'otto one is pretty cool ... must resist .

Have you all read 16 yet ? Seems this series just keeps getting better and better .. the way story and art flow between panels is perfect.

I have, gonna re read after work. I agree that this series cant be beat right now. I just started collecting again 3 years ago or so and this run has been a highlight to me in that time.

If I could only read one series of all the ones that I buy, Immortal Hulk would be the one that I picked. I do feel the green door story ended a little quickly there at the end but still good.

Also, #16 is the first 2nd printing Marvel has ever done that has store variants.
