Investment Potential and Analysis of Avengers Annuals_Specials_Giant Size

Investment Potential and Analysis of Avengers Annuals_Specials_Giant Size T he first Table presents the   Bias Score   for all the issues. Bias scores show which issues are being bought by the Insiders (Pros) vs. the Outsiders (Fans Less Serious). The concept of my approach is to focus on the issues being bought  BULLISHLY  by the investors. We developed an analysis of data to quantify this Bias ( B Score ). We mark the issues with the highest Bias with Lime Green followed by a Dark Green staining for issues with a lesser but definite Bias.   Table 2 data deals with another data stream on comic-book issues. This run’s issues are looked at 3 grades 9.4, 8 and 6. The changes in bias between the different grades are calculated and the  SLN  numbers were born. The  SLN  numbers look into each “world” of the  I vs. O  bias data.  This data has shown historically to be the most liberal and establishes the investment potent...

Special__Quick hit Post. Investing in Comics is not just about the price

So here are factors that I have thought about in my investment journey. 1) Blocks of time. If you do not have sufficient time to spend and focus on the deals at LCS, CONs, Auctions, Ebay etc. DON'T!  2) On Ebay look at the new listings and focus on those. Use the notes to set price points (see previous post). As you look then, just delete those listings that are near your price points. Move on. 3) On Ebay, use broad search terms over titles as people can incorrectly spell titles. 4) Bankroll. Sell off unwanted items. Have a garage sale and come up with cash. 5) Raw vs Slabbed Books! I would only focus on one type in your investment block of time (Session) 6) Keep up with profits in your sessions. If you buy below the issues's average then you have made money (virtual of course) 7) School yourself in deal-making face to face (LCS or CONs). Plenty of resources to read about closing deals etc. 8) Psychological Strength. Are you weak? Be honest. Impulsive? Then I w...

We mark the issues with the highest Bias with Lime Green followed by a Dark Green staining for issues with a lesser but definite Bias.   SGT FURY is certainly a interesting run.

Issue 3 has Nazi soldiers and continues the tough w...

We mark the issues with the highest Bias with Lime Green followed by a Dark Green staining for issues with a lesser but definite Bias.   The Star Wars early issues are overshadowed by the 35 cent variations as those issues are  denoted by the A symbol.  The Star Wars #1 35 cent variant has been one of the most valuable and sought after comic books of the Bronze Age for several years. These were in very limited distribution, and although the exact numbers aren’t known, the  estimate is about 1500 copies for issue 1.  So the B Scores are p...

We see the main issue is issue 1 the first appearance of the Defenders but two story Arcs preceded the Defenders. They were the first ARC in  Doctor Strange  #183 (Nov. 1969),  Sub-Mariner  #22 (Feb. 1970),  The Incredible Hulk  #126 (April 1970)  and the second Arc found in  Sub-mariner #34 and 35. These ARCs are thought to be the beginnings for the Defenders! Issue 1 has a Good B Score...
