Dc And Marvel Universe

[revi]

^I've read articles about this, bro.. And its not clear if DC has bought the Milestone characters.. Let us just see how this turns out.. As far as I know, I read that the Milestone characters will first make an appearance in the pages of JLA..

[revi]

I just want to share some recent hauls that I got yesterday while walking the halls of Virra Mall.. Got surprised that one store was carrying these limited edition Bobble Heads..

 

The Spiderman and the Green Goblin are both limited editions and can only be bought in the 2008 San Diego Comic Con.. The Spidey is limited to 1008 copies while the Glow in the Dark Goblin is limited to 480 pieces.. As I checked e-bay, kakaunti lang ang mga for sale na ganito.. Meaning, medyo hard to find sila.. :thumbsupsmiley:

 

Here are the pictures:

Yep. Next week's Justice League Of America ang debut nila. I'm getting it anyway kasi asa regular pull list ko naman 'tong title na 'to. Yung si Static eh sa title na may Titans ata siya magdedebut at mukhang nabili na ng DC si Static at kung sino pa mang kasama niya dun sa sarili niyang universe. Pero yung mga Milestone characters eh hindi pa confirmed.

Sabi ng kuya sa planet x ay may signing session raw bukas sa Gallera. Jay Anacleto raw yung bisita. Sana nga matuloy at makabisita ulit ako dun

Tama ka bro, hope to see u there later. Dadating siguro ako from 12nn to 2PM. Di ako nagpareserve ng Eyes Of The Camera pero bahala na pagdating dun.

[Y-thelastman]

sana ma-approve leave ko pra makapunta d2.

[revi]

@Norby: Nice to meet you last Saturday, bro.. Parehas pa tayo na kumuha ng 2 kopya ng Eye of the Camera.. With regards to the What If's.. As you well know, hindi ako masyadong mahilig sa stories that are not within continuity.. So medyo biased ako diyan.. haha.. But What If's are proven to be good/solid storylines that are very much enjoyable..

 

@Khumpleetist: Thanks for the head's up with Amazing Fantasy #1 (second run).. $4 siya based on the Price Guides.. At mura nga ito (given its good condition) for 20 bucks.. :thumbsupsmiley:

 

@Y The Last Man: Bro, sayang at hindi ka nakapunta sa signing ni Jay Anacleto.. It ran smoothly but neither of me, norbs and khumpleetist won the raffle draw.. The prize was a commissioned art to be done by Jay for a Marvel character of your choice.. Okay na din, ano?

 

@all: BTW, here are my pulls for this week:

 

Final Crisis #5

SI: Dark Reign

Action Comics #872

Man W/ No Name #6

Terry Moore's Echo #8

Watchmen #1 (new printing) --- 90 lang naman ito eh.. haha..

 

Will also get the new issue of Wizard for this month.. I usually get the January Wizard dahil kadalasan ay previews ito ng mga storylines for next year and dito din pinapakita yung mga hit comic book series ng nakaraang taon..

Oi bro, nice to see you again last Sat. Ang aga mo pala dahil nung tinanong kita kung nakapagpapirma ka na kay Jay eh tapos ka na. Good find yung Wolverine na pinapirma mo kila Leinil at Ed, kainggit nga eh. :thumbsupsmiley: Yung tungkol sa What If House Of M eh medyo ok lang sa akin kung ako tatanungin mo kasi recently eh naapreciate ko din yung nga alternate realities na mga istorya kasi nagbabasa ako ng New Exiles at Booster Gold. Pero hindi talaga para sa lahat yung mga alternate reality stories kita mo naman si revi. Teka, di ka ba kukuha nung Wondeful Wizard of Oz? Cute nung drwaing eh.

 

 

 

 

@revi

 

No problem bro, salamat din dun sa recommendation mo sa libro ni De Zuñiga baka kunin ko din. Nga pala, hassle yung issue ko ng Secret Invasion #8 kasi may damage sa loob pati yung Justice Society #21. Maipapalit ko naman yun pero ewan ko lang yung SI #8 kasi may pirma ni Leinil eh. Bahala na sa Sunday, tawagan ko na lang si Mdam Nelida mamya.

 

 

 

 

@Y The Last Man

 

Pakita ka naman sa susunod na event bro.

 

 

 

 

Here's my pull list for this week:

 

 

BATMAN #681 (Replacement copy)

BOOSTER GOLD #15

FINAL CRISIS #5 (OF 7)

GREEN LANTERN CORPS #31

JUSTICE LEAGUE OF AMERICA #27 (first DCU canon appearance ng Milestone characters)

SECRET INVASION DARK REIGN (more of a necessity ito sa current storyline kaya ko kinuha)

[khumpleetist]

Ah, sabagay ok din naman kung HC. Kukuha din ako ng Thor #600 pero yung regular cover lang. Thunderbolts will be an key title and a great companion for Dark Reign kasi nga andito si Norman Osborn. Ms. Marvel #35 is probably the fall out of the latest Captain Marvel series. I don't know if this is the first time na magkikita si Carol at Noh Varr pero being an Avenger eh definitely magiging key title din ito during Dark Reign.

[revi]

The first installment on Dark Reign had so-so reviews at ign.com.. Expectations are high on Bendis to deliver after SI #8.. Napakadami daw pwedeng gawin after that issue, and SI: Dark Reign did not capitalize on the opening that SI #8 gave.. hehe.. Let us see how the story unfolds.. Low rating or not, Dark Reign is a major storyline that we can not avoid..

 

BTW, I recently bought the January issue of Wizard.. I also had the new Wizard 2009 Platinum reserved.. Wala kasing Price Guide dun sa Platinum kaya hindi ko muna binasa.. Sa January issue ko nabasa na si Leinil Yu ang Best Artist for 2008.. Nice! A Filipino for Wizard's Best Artist..

 

As I checked the price guide, natuwa ako dahil madami akong titles na kinuha last year na medyo tumaas ang mga presyo.. Kick Ass is one of them.. $15 na ang issue #1 nito.. The funny thing is that I have 2 #1's of Kick Ass..

 

Will post more as I browse through the magazine...

@revi

 

When SI finished it somehow sucked towards the end. Ang konsolasyon na lang eh marami ngang pwedeng gawin after the event. The art was somehow rushed in issue #8 but the overall art of the series was great. Congrats to Leinil Yu for his Wizard's Best Artis for 2008. Wizard is the mainstream mag for comicbooks so it's really a great achievement (hindi nagpahuli kay Pacquiao. Hehehe). Well, SI: Dark Reign is tagged as a bookend to SI so this is a worthy tie-in. I'll probably just get the Avengers title minus The Initiative and Young Avengers (if they'll have a title).

 

Magandang balita yang pagtaas ng value ng Kick-Ass #1! Meron din ako pero dahil hindi superhero genre at di ko feel nung di pa lumalabas eh 1 copy lang inorder ko. Pero kung naaalala ko pa eh hindi lahat ng nagpareserve eh nakakuha ng Kick-Ass #1. Tataas pa ito pag lumabas na yung movie.

[revi]

pakiscan na lang ang price guide. hehehhee. pls...

 

haha.. Just tell me what comic book you need to look at the price guide, bro.. Hindi din kumpleto ang Price Guide ng Wizard ha? Hindi kamukha nung mga Overstreet.. Laktaw laktaw siya..

 

Todate, ang hot comics na nasa Top 10 ay as follows:

 

#1 All-Star Batman and Robin #10 Recalled Variant (Potmouth).. $30

#2 Action Comics #869 Recalled Version.. $15

#3 Deadpool #1.. $4

#4 Secret Invasion #1.. $5

#5 Batman #676 RIP.. $7

#6 Uncanny X-Men #500 Turner Variant.. $30

#7 Amazing Spiderman #569 Adi Granov Variant (Venom's face).. $8

#8 Wolverine #66 Turner Variant.. $40

#9 Daredevil #111 Aja Variant.. $15

#10 War Heroes #1 Silvestri Variant.. $25

 

Was not able to get the recalled Action Comics #869.. But I do have this month's #1 Hot Comic.. Pati si khumpleetist meron din niyan.. haha.. The regular potmouth All Star Bats is valued at $20 already.. And the price could still escalate..

[revi]

Magandang balita yang pagtaas ng value ng Kick-Ass #1! Meron din ako pero dahil hindi superhero genre at di ko feel nung di pa lumalabas eh 1 copy lang inorder ko. Pero kung naaalala ko pa eh hindi lahat ng nagpareserve eh nakakuha ng Kick-Ass #1. Tataas pa ito pag lumabas na yung movie.

 

The reason why I have two Kick Ass #1's is that I was able to buy one in the bargain bin in Filbars Riverbanks.. :thumbsupsmiley: Nung nalaman kong gagawin itong film, naghanap na ako ng first issue nito, hindi ko akalain na sa "sale" ko pa ito makukuha.. Filbars Riverbanks is a goldmine.. haha.. Pure luck lang, bro!

 

The Hulk of Jeph Loeb and Ed McGuiness also has high prices.. The first issue is commanding $10, while the 2nd issue is commanding $8.. Kahit pangit ang reviews dito ng mga internet review sites, the first appearance of the Red Hulk can never be wrong, I guess..

 

The first 8 issues of the new Thor also have good pricing in the guide.. Nasa $8-10 ang issue #1 ng Thor, yung #2 nasa $5..

 

Final Crisis is not yet really picking up in the guide, while Secret Invasion and its variants are moving slowly but steadily.. Nasa $30 na SI #1 Variant ni McNiven..

 

Sa DC, ang pinaka-hot ay ang Batman RIP.. at yung All Star Batman #10 na Recalled editions..

 

Other new comics na medyo noteworthy ay ang X-Force at Deadpool.. Medyo tumaas din ang mga first issues nito..

 

Simmer down ang dating hot comics na Halo:Uprising and Umbrella Academy.. But I feel that Umbrella Academy has a lot of room to go up.. Kaso hindi ako nakakuha nito.. Pati na din ang Dark Tower series.. Again, these titles have all the room to go up in the guide..

 

Yung Locke and Key from IDW is also hot.. $20 na ang first issue nito.. Its just a shame na hindi ko din ito napa-reserve.. Na-over-look ko ito sa list ng Comic Odyssey..

 

The series Freddy Vs. Jason Vs. Ash is also Hot.. The first issues are HOT, especially the covers of Ash and Jason.. Both are at $10, while the Freddy version commands $8..

The is the cover to the January Wizard..

 

With the recent developments in Batman's RIP, Superman's New Krypton, and the return of the many Flashes in Final Crisis.. (Bakit kaya wala sina Red Tornado, Black Lightning at Wonder Woman) DC will be revamping the old JLA to this next year.. Green Arrow, Batwoman, GL, The Atom (Ray Palmer), Congorilla, Supergirl and Captain Marvel/SHAZAM (Freddy Freeman).. The flying long-haired dude is Billy Batson who is now the Shazam Wizard..

 

Will definitely pick up this series's first storyarc.. I love the art of Mauro Cascioli (who also penned the last issues of Trials of Shazam - which I also loved).. Sana lang bigyan ng "love" dito si Freddy Freeman as the new Shazam.. Bitin kasi ako dun sa Trials of Shazam.. :thumbsupsmiley:

[revi]

I think mag-oorder me ng WIZARD OF OZ #1. I have a feeling na magandang yun and tataas ang sales. What do you think?

 

Maganda ang reviews nito sa ign.com.. And I felt Marvel really marketed this as compared to the other "reconditioned fairy tale" comicbooks that they did in the past.. I know you are into this forms of comics, bro, so I suggest you get it.. It has the potential to go up because of its reviews and its hype.. But I will pass on this coz I am not into "fairy tale" comicbooks eh.. (As khumpleetist knows, I am more into the horror genre.)

 

Ngayon, kung naging rare yung first issue nito baka mag-hunting din ako nito (hehe!), but I will not continue it..
