Star Wars: Princess Leia #1 Arrives plus Sergio Aragones Star Wars #2
Howdy!
Two long-awaited Star Wars comics will be released tomorrow. The first is
STAR WARS: PRINCESS LEIA #1,
and and the second is the very scarce
STAR WARS (2015) #2 Sergio Aragones
variant edition. We will have both of those editions available, as well as our own
exclusive Mile High Comics STAR WARS: PRINCESS LEIA #1
variant edition, which features an exceptionally cool cover by Gabriele Del'Otto. You can order all of these issues through our back issue listings right now, and we will ship them to you tomorrow.
Princess Leia #1 Mile High
Releasing next week will be STAR WARS (2015) #3. We also have commissioned an
exclusive Mile High Comics variant
edition of this issue, featuring a very maniacal image of Emperor Palpatine, by Humberto Ramos. Greg and Mario in our new comics subscription department are still accepting pre-orders for our variant of issue #3 at $24.95 each through Friday. They will be priced at $29.95 on the day of release.
Star Wars #2 Aragones
As an aside, those of you who dabble in investing in back issues might be well-served by picking up some extra copies of any editions of STAR WARS (2015) #2 and #3. This is just a personal opinion on my part, but after having watched back issue comics pricing trends in the biz for 45 years, my instincts are telling me that the issues from #2-#10 are going to be the toughest to locate in the future. Especially after Episode VII releases on December 18th. I am setting aside more copies of these new Star Wars issues for future sales by Mile High Comics than any other new comics release since the 1980's. I did the same with
STAR WARS: DARTH VADER #1,
and it is now totally sold out from Marvel, with no second printing planned. Comics fandom is big, but worldwide, Star Wars fandom is much, much bigger...
Darth Vader #1
In other news, Pam's weekly inventory report showed yet another solid gain in both the breadth and the depth of the comics stock we can offer you online. In total, Pam's team has added well over 900,000 back issues into
our website inventory
since last January. In a nutshell, that is why our recent
New-In-Stock and
Premium New-In-Stock
listings have been so bountiful for you. If you are looking to fill in some missing issues, you should take a quick look at our website today.
Star Wars #3 Mile High
Surprisingly, our Jason St. Mega-Store has been the key to this growth in our back issues, as we have an excellent team of comics sorters and graders working here who send Pam entire pallets of great comics every week. We have also been sending Pam hundreds of
Silver Age and
Bronze Age
titles, all which are available to you at 50% off when you utilize our ongoing HALFPRICE! codeword. Only books, new comics, a few variants, and our CGC-graded comics are excluded from our excellent HALFPRICE! codeword sale.
Princess Leia #1 Regular
I will close today's newsletter by quickly mentioning that we will be hosting one of our world-famous no-minimum-bid auctions this weekend. Going up for bid (with absolutely no reserves!) will be 400+ scarce back issue comics, toys, statues, prints, and more from our Mile High Comics stock, as well as several hundred donated items. The proceeds from the donated collectibles will benefit the Denver Children's Advocacy Center (which assists victims of abuse...) and the White Rose Scholarship Fund. If you live near Denver and would like to attend our auction, it begins at 11:30 AM on Saturday at
our Jason St. Mega-Store, 4600 Jason St.
Happy Collecting!
