Selling for around $8-15. 2 covers 50/50 split. Set goes for about $30. Was selling higher than cover before it came out today. Image Comics When I seen this in Previews and when I saw it for ordering, something told me to buy this. But I couldn't get past the way it looked. I thought it looked like shit and silly, but even still, I was thinking this could get hot. I don't really know why either. But I just couldn't order it. I think I actually had it on my order list and took it off. Then in the last couple of weeks, I seen on CGC people talking it up and hyping it. It appears to be under-ordered and word of mouth is causing a buzz. For speculation purposes, I wish I bought it. But in terms of content, I just couldn't stomach getting it. It looked like everything I hate about comics. I just couldn't force myself to buy it.

This book is the new Body Bags. Also, the characters first appeared in issues #1 -#2 of POPGUN.
also "G", I will just say this which you already probably know.
If you are buying comics for the investment potential or to sell, you need to throw your personal likes and dislikes out the window. Hot product does not care if it appeals to you or not. It appeals to someone and that is what matters.
just sayin'

The only reason I would have bought this was speculation. But the part of me that didn't want to own this POS won out. It's okay if I missed out. I didn't care to own it.

You know, it's funny. When I seen this book I just had a feeling this was going to break out in a big way. I've been telling myself if I feel like something is going to break to just pick up a copy just to play the speculation game and I remember putting it on my order form and later taking it off because I just couldn't stomach it.
It's good to realize I had a feeling about it and it came to pass because I had the feeling at order time about 3 months ago when there was no buzz at all. So that feels good. But after seeing it skyrocket on day #1 like it has, I feel like if you haven't sold yet at the big price, you may not ever see it again. I just don't see this one lasting. Gotta feel like you'll be able to pick this up for peanuts if you really want one before too long. Although I could be wrong. I don't see this being the next Chew, Walking Dead or Morning Glories. But it was kind of wild to see it take off like it did.
