Mile High Comics GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY Variants

Howdy!

I was finally able to see the new CAPTAIN AMERICA movie last night. Just like every other avid comics fan with whom I have spoken, I enjoyed the film very much. What resonated with me in particular was the astonishingly comprehensive manner in which the writers tied in present day Marvel continuities with that of the Silver Age issues published during the 1960's and 1970's. They have managed to pull back the curtain and let everyone see those exciting elements of Marvel's past that we fans have appreciated and savored for so many decades. I could not have been more pleased.

While I liked the actual CAPTAIN AMERICA film very much, the trailers for the GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY and TEEN-AGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES movies also excited me. GUARDIANS definitely looks like it has a chance to be a major hit, while the TMNT trailer surprised me with just how great the Turtles look when inserted into a live action format. The geniuses who created that TMNT CGI are simply amazing...

Moving on to a related topic, we are going to provide you with one last chance to pick up copies of our exclusive Mile High Comics GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY variant editions for issues #1 and #5 at our current pricing points. We presently have our exclusive #1 edition priced at $19.95, and our #5 (with it's cool ANGELA cover...) priced at only $14.95. Given how exciting the new trailer for the GUARDIANS movie proved to be, however, we have seen demand on both of these issues suddenly spike. That being the case, our price on both these exclusives will need to be raised to $24.95 each, as of Wednesday of next week.


Guardians of the Galaxy #1 Mile High

Before I move on to other topics, I would like to share with you our thoughts about all of our exclusive Mile High Comics variant editions. Simply put, we cover the entire upfront cost to publish our exclusive variant comics out of our own existing cash flow. We then consider each variant that we publish to be a long term investment, anticipating that they will sell out slowly, with our asking prices gradually rising as our supplies diminish. Ultimately, we want everyone who invests in our variants to then be rewarded, by seeing them rise in value over time. In a nutshell, that is why we never wholesale our variants to anyone. As long as we are the only source for our variants, they should (at least in theory) never decline in value.


Guardians of the Galaxy #5 Mile High

All of the above having been said, it might interest you to know that there are currently only 800 copies of our GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY #1 in private hands. While that is a remarkably small number, our variant edition of GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY #5 currently has only 300 copies (!) in circulation, and that is a worldwide total. That number may increase somewhat over the next few days, but even if we sell a few more, I can assure you that our two GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY variants will remain among the rarest Marvel comics ever published, for quite some time. 'Nuff said.

In other news, we are continuing to add hundreds of choice comics into our website inventory every day. Many scarcer issues are selling almost within the instant that we post them, however, as quite a few fans are availing themselves of our free Want List program. If you sign up with a personal Want List password, we can then send you free notification e-mails whenever any issue that you are seeking becomes available. Taking the time to create your own Want List on our website can really pay off, especially during times like these when we are adding thousands of especially nice back issues into our inventory.

I will close today's newsletter by mentioning again that our 50% off SWEETHEART codeword is still in effect on all of our back issue comics and magazines, excluding only new issues, CGC-graded issues, and a few variants. With most of our back issue prices already slashed, the additional 50% off savings provided by the SWEETHEART codeword drops your cost on millions of our back issues to under $2 each. Please enjoy these delightful savings with our sincere thanks and gratitude for your continuing support of Mile High Comics.

Happy Collecting!
