For such an immensely popular character (probably only second to Spider-Man in the Marvel universe), Wolverine actually doesn't have that many key issues. In this blog, I argue that the market undervalues Punisher War Journal #6 as a Wolverine (and Punisher) key issue, especially when you compare...
Some key issues have infamously bad covers. The issue itself is be important because of a major first appearance, but it just feels like its potential remains forever unfulfilled because the cover is entirely unrelated to its content. If only all major first appearances had iconic covers...
James Gunn is at it once again -- he's bringing some of DC's deepest cuts to the small and big screen in the DCU. Let's take a look at one of those deep-cut characters: Weasel. Is there a chance he could become the next Rocket Raccoon or...

While the Great Comic Crash of 2022 demonstrated the dangers of investing in Modern Age books, I have kept my eye on a few Modern keys that I believe may have some upside. Two of these issues are War of the Realms Agents of Atlas...
The past year has been awful for comic book investors. In 2021, we witnessed a boom in comic book values that we may never see again. Not surprisingly, that bubble burst in 2022. That is not necessarily a bad thing, as this crash may have created buying...
