It is but here’s the thing: he’s not on the cover. Sounds silly, but comic buyers do judge a book by its cover. Same with Wolverine’s 1st appearance Hulk 180, RiRi Williams Inv Iron Man 7, etc. So many characters they separate “1st cameo appearance” and “1st full appearance” when the reality is if a character appeared for the 1st time, that’s their “1st appearance”. With Gambit though, UXM 266 was intended to be 1st chronologically and story wise it’s written before and takes place before the annual. Basically UXMA 14 is his 1st appearance due to unfortunate scheduling.
I've been tracking a few copies of UXM 266 lately, but yet to secure myself a copy. It's definitely seeing an uptick here in the UK as well. The Swaby was my pick from the list this week - we need more high tier Emma Frost covers.
Do a show on the Akira run from late 80s....legendary run...first anime translated to english...on and on...super rare printing of last 4 issues...AKIRA IS THE BOMB!
The Crow is my all time favorite movie it’s the only movie I ever saw twice in the theaters. I’ve seen some real blockbusters in the theaters too, including Star Wars from 1977. When I have the money I intend to get all the Crow books graded at 9.8 and up if possible
Riiiight as we finished recording it typed a bunch of 1's all by itself and then shut down the computer. It couldn't have been when we were halfway through, it was after we finished but before we exported anything! But we did alright in the end
@@ludotoyhunter8492 It’s Midtown Comics. At least it’s cheaper than getting it from the artist himself. He charged for an unsigned book a whopping $250 on his website.
wowza I have Seven outta ten, I have the trade dress to spider gwen but not the 1:100, I'm missing that Crow book and that unknown comics cover SWHR 6 - I do have the walmart version but guess that doesn't count
13:05 Iris Shaw is not Eric Draven’s fiancé, she is a completely different character. She is a pregnant woman who is murdered in an act of domestic terrorism and brought back to avenge her unborn child. Flesh and Blood is my favorite story in The Crow anthology. I hope they bring this to screen!
131 has a better Byrne cover. Nobody re-read 130 over and over. :-) 268 is a great cover - agreed. Liefeld STILL can't draw. You guys have a responsibility to the world to NOT call Liefeld's art "awesome" EVER!
I have an X-men #130 in a CGC 9.6 newsstand. I've had it for over 5 years. I have been looking for an X-Men #131 in the same grade for a few years, they are tough to come by. X-Men #131 has huge spine issues especially in a newsstand copy. I look at raw copies all the time and high grades are in short supply. The reason the census is so low for #131 is the book is tough in high grade. I don't think the average collector knows that. Everyone will start hunting for this book now only driving up the prices higher or people sitting on high grades will submit them. We shall see.
could we just stop with "movie" spec? How much money has been lost from people running out and grabbing these books up for no reason? There is a MUCH more solid market that moves very well, it's called "everything that you guys never cover". Gold, Silver, and Bronze move very briskly, and a lot of moderns do as well but you just ignore them.
Those kinds of books get covered in the Hot 10 show Tom does with Gem Mint, they're just two different lists on Key Collector Comics: Trending 10 is books that are selling a lot of copies Hot 10 is books that are selling for more than their 12-month average
Margot Robbie would be a way better pic to play Dazzler, not friggin Taylor Swift seriously stop hyping up Taylor she's so awful I cant stand hearing about her anymore.
I would like to know your take on what´s going on in Hollywood with woke movement and race swaps in movies and tv shows, as well as complete disregard for original works and lore. For example, the Disney plan for Star Wars is to erase everything George Lucas universe and create a new one with major women characters erasing men. How will that impact on Star Wars comics of classics characters? As european collector i'm kind of concerned because books that may worth something, after the movies, their value may go down the drain.
Know what? Avengers endgame was the peak of marvel movies period. Sooo all these specs on books of characters that COULD POSSIBLY BE IN A MOVIE is insanity! If anyone dares buy that 1st variant, u NEED therapy or dont know ANYTHING about comics or collecting. Hell, buying any of these books is throwaway money. You newbs are being bilked out of your hard earned money. ONE YEAR I'LL RETURN TO MAKE SURE THESE SPEC BOOKS HIT LIKE THESES GUYS SAID! Even the bearded dude knows this is a complete sham..
Nice shirt, Russ. I bought the book at the Speedy Mart when I was a kid.
Uncanny X-Men 268 at #1?!? HOORAY!!! One of my favorite comic covers EVER!!!
Isn't X-Men Annual 14 first Gambit? (It checks all the boxes of standards we've heard over the years.) Thoughts?

20:01 shot to Fire Guy Ryan in silent disagreement 🤣
Haha Tom I’m working my Crow Sleeve . Think I’m going The Crow Lethe #3 Mico Suayan Variant . That cover is dope
My X-Men 266 is currently at EGS awaiting slabbing. 😊
I got that Xmen 268 signed by Scott Williams and Jim Lee. I just need Chris Claremont signature and the book will be complete.

Mike Mayhew's BO Katan Exclusive cover was my pick up modern of the month. WOWO.
Marvel did a Lego variant to the X-Men 268 cover. An awesome cover to an awesome cover.... 🤘
Great video!! Definitely some great comics on the list this week to pick up. Love me some Rob Leifield goodness. Keep up the great work. 😎
Do a show on the Akira run from late 80s....legendary run...first anime translated to english...on and on...super rare printing of last 4 issues...AKIRA IS THE BOMB!

Nice Wolverine cover tho
I picked up all the annuals. There's a couple bangers. I bought the Spider Gwen variant.
The back up story is fun.
I love you guys, especially Fire Guy Ryan!
Well thanks! 😂
Redbull takes the life of another keyboard...when will the madness end lol
Riiiight as we finished recording it typed a bunch of 1's all by itself and then shut down the computer. It couldn't have been when we were halfway through, it was after we finished but before we exported anything! But we did alright in the end
My shop was trying to sell Spider-Gwen annual for friggin $200. Unbelievable
Which is why we should never have gotten rid of newsstands. They never gouged.
What the--?! What’s the name of your LCS “Pocket Jackers Books and Games”?! That’s ridiculous!!!!!
@@ludotoyhunter8492 It’s Midtown Comics. At least it’s cheaper than getting it from the artist himself. He charged for an unsigned book a whopping $250 on his website.
If it was the 1:100 variant - that is what they are going for.
Unfuckin’ believable those lil wankers!
Imma snag a solo mystery box right now!👌
Super Crooks was a really great series. Possibly one of the best comic book animated series of all time.
wowza I have Seven outta ten, I have the trade dress to spider gwen but not the 1:100, I'm missing that Crow book and that unknown comics cover SWHR 6 - I do have the walmart version but guess that doesn't count

I've had Tom's copy of The Crow sitting on my shelf for a decade now and I still have never read it 😅 maybe someday soon...
Damn. I have all of these except the Spider-Gwen variant & SWHR.
Emma is the BDSM cover girl of comics, of course her first cover appearance should be a grail.
Your app is great
Isn’t ASM 203 second appearance of the dazzler?
I'm looking forward to the magic order something different,im so burnt out on super heros
I stayed beyond the end, the Cap Tits cover with Steve Rogers looks more than him having 44DD’S, Rogers looks pregnant. 😅
Post credit scene!
Together again for the first time.
131 has a better Byrne cover. Nobody re-read 130 over and over. :-) 268 is a great cover - agreed. Liefeld STILL can't draw. You guys have a responsibility to the world to NOT call Liefeld's art "awesome" EVER!
Top 10 lists are fantastic
Okay, okay! I finally subscribed! 😂
The constant berating our viewers worked! 😅 thank you ❤
What?!? Cap Tits?!? Homage?!?
to those who were lucky enough to buy the Vision and Scarlet Which for $500...hahahahahahaha ouch!
I love this week's list as I want to buy some of these keys (again). Thanks guys. Cap tits.... lol
That’s dope that Rob Liefeld did this pic over with Sam Wilson and I love it! Shout out to Rob!!!!
I'd feel like a total perv if I bought that Gwen variant 🤣
You guys are delusional if you think that Cap cover is decent…. 🤦🏻♂️👁️
Hmmm let me check my boxes

The Acolyte is going to be the final nail in the Disney Star Wars coffin and people are speculating on it like everything is all good. 😂
didn't they cancel the Acolyte show???
Uncanny 266, second appearance... ;)

266 is not gambits first app...stop spreading lies.
Ulrius Jewels 1 by Advent Comics is available though PreviewsWorld. Can I get a review or shout out?
Hey! I have the #1 book! Thats only happened about 5x@hoodwood_comics
