Larry's Comics Market Report

I love reading comics. I love the stories. I love the art. That is why I am in this business. I value the joy of reading comics more than the joy I get from collecting them. That said, if you can read comics AND pocket some coin along the way, that is simply the icing on the cake of this hobby. I like to speculate ( purchase with the intent of making a profit) on comics. Always have, Always will.

History unfolds next week. The Image founders join forces in a "jam" art style comic to release Image United #1, a story penned by fan favorite Robert Kirkman.
I have NEVER seen a company promote a book harder. Press releases and interviews are everywhere. Anyone involved with the book has their social media's on overdrive. Next Wednesday new faces will show up to buy this book because of the hype. What they will be missing is the Prelude saga that took place last month.
Savage Dragon  #153, Witchblade #131, Invincible #67 and Spawn #195 all has a part of the prelude story.
Invincible and Spawn are ALLREADY out of print. The prelude part 4 was scheduled to be in Spawn #197, but guess what?? Todd's a little off schedule.Then it was rescheduled and prelude part 4 was scheduled to be in Spawn #196, but guess what?? Todd's a little off schedule. It FINALLY shipped in Spawn #195. As of this writing its a bitch to find.
All of these books are gems. Go get em.
