Captain Marvel #8 is heating up quick.... out Wednesday9552

Apparently, there is a new character introduced in this upcoming issue. The virgin "Carnage-ized" variant is already selling for ~$30 and the regular cover isn't far behind. So, maybe get to your LCS on Wednesday morning, or call 'em tomorrow, put it on your pull list.

Thoughts? There seems to have been a LOT of "gotta have it" comics lately. This, Walking Dead, TMNT, Marvel Comics Presents, Immortal Hulk, Canto, Die, Naomi ... is this a new trend? With legs? Or will people get burned out on it?

At least it's content and not a ridiculous number of variant covers. The new characters scenario has future implications that could result in a nice net profit for these new books.

the price for the virgin Carnage-ized is standard. I remember getting that email from Unknown Comics months ago. My pull list was put on hold because I'm a little behind but I'll catch up. Hopefully they still hold it for me since they know that Captain Marvel is on the top of my pull list.

If the viagra is working you should be well over a 9.8. xkonk private msg quote post Address this user
Can you imagine if they let Claremont write a book these days? Every other issue, new character, whole line sold out.

I didn't see a virgin set there, but yesterday I got three copies of just the virgin with a "buy two, get one free" sale. They were $20 each, so $40 for three.

(I just looked - they are $25 now, but still buy two, get one free.)

@poka Yes, I agree. I am just not a fan of most of Amanda Conner's covers, actually.

I had no way of knowing that 9.8 graded copies signed by Adam Hughes weren't what you were looking for. drchaos private msg quote post Address this user

Today I went outside of my usual range of stores on a quest to obtain TMNT 51 & 52.

I ended up with one copy of each.

I also got two copies of Walking Dead # 193 Second Print from a store that put it out on the shelves this week by accident. I thought it was the first print and tried to take all eight copies before I was told the limit was two.

I got one Captain Marvel Retailer Incentive (first store at 9AM), two carnagized covers (first store at 9AM and second store at 10AM), and 6 or 7 copies of the regular cover. Last store I saw the regular cover at was around 11:20AM.

I hit a total of roughly ten stores between 9AM and 6PM today and got all kinds of cool stuff.

The last store I went to is closing in two weeks and had all back issues half off cover. Of the $60 I spent there about half was on Walking Dead 100 Chromium, Ottley, and McFarlane covers.

I spent about $350 at one store I visited the first time and got a bunch of cool variants plus some wall books (Immortal Hulk 16 wraparound, Rai 0, etc.).

Thanks for this! The three pack was still available. My LCS was sold out of Caprain Marvel almost instantly this morning...I was looking for the other two books also for my collection, so well worth it.

Apparently, they did the same thing here as Immortal Hulk #20. There's a "bloody" variant of cover A...or, I guess it's carnage goo. That's what my LCS pulled for me when I called last night to get one put in my pull box.

Also, at the moment the 1:25 is on unknown for $75. Lowest on ebay with active bidding is at $80...https://unknowncomicbooks.com/products/captain-marvel-8-izaakse-var-1-25-07-17-2019?_pos=7&_sid=e781ba6ec&_ss=r

On line for a Midtown signing. Hit four stores in NYC and got a carnagized Captain Marvel 8 at cover, two copies of TWD 193 for $10 each,
copy of the Walt Simonson variant of Yosagi Yojimboo 1 for $20, and a TMNT 52 for $4.50.

When I realized it was about illegal immigrants I walked away.

I hope the next reboot is better.

Yeah, crazy that they're covering topical important social issues relevant to the time in which they're published. Good thing comics didn't used to be like that.

I missed the part about illegal immigrants. The crowd chanting 'send her home' in the book was pretty fucking prescient though.
