Why Vengeance 1 is a Hot Comic

2023 MARKET REPORT: RETURNING TO EARTH WITH A CRASH

Modern spec books like Vengeance #1 have suffered the most during the 2022 selloff.

Once the world went back to work and the Covid handouts stopped, this sort of book just tanked.

Keep an eye on it for now, but I wouldn't be a buyer currently.

2022 MARKET REPORT: MISS AMERICA THE BEAUTIFUL

If you'd have followed our advice and picked up a 9.6 for $165 last year, then you'd be sitting pretty now.

CGC 9.8 sales have just come off the boil, and with a gap of around $600 I would now prefer a 9.8 of this book over the 9.6. In fact, I intend to add one to my portfolio of investment comics as soon as possible.

Recent sales:

  • 9.8 $1,330 regular / $5,800 variant (!!)
  • 9.6 $665 / $1,775
  • 9.4 $310 / $900
  • 9.2 $410 / $635
  • 9.0 $360 / $700
  • 8.0 $195

This book is hot because Miss America Chavez is going to appear in the 2022 Doctor Strange movie, the Multitude of Madness, in the next phase of the MCU.

Canadian actress Xochitl Gomez will play the character opposite Benedict Cumberbatch.

The character first appeared in the Golden Age, in Marvel Mystery Comics #49, but the alter ego was Madeline Joyce Frank.

What to Invest In

There is a variant comic of Vengeance #1. We have published prices below for both issues.

We recommend sticking to the regular edition.

Variant comics are a minefield, and not a good place for people to dabble in without spending time getting to know the lay of the land.

  • 9.8 $610 regular / $1,800 variant
  • 9.6 $165 / $750
  • 9.4 $250(!!) / $535
  • 9.2 $215
  • 9.0 $175 / $450
  • 8.0 $120
  • 7.0 $405 variant << This is exactly why you should steer clear of variant comics if you don't know what you're doing.
  • This is an idiotic price paid by somebody who doesn't have a clue.

There seems to be the best chance of appreciation in CGC 9.6, which has not gone up in value to match the top grade of 9.8.
