Note: Need to make a correction concerning my previous post. I mentioned that it would be a good time to pick up some early Iron Mans, as the movie will be coming out in a couple of months… Sorry, it’s coming out in early May and that’s only a week away. Sorry about the confusion.

Can certain comic books connected with movies skyrocket comic book values?

In short, yes! As of late the comic books which Marvel and DC have spun off movies from have made billions over the past few years - and you can profit from this by buying correctly those comic books which will rise due to a movie coming out.

This is an area of comic book collecting that is becoming more popular, especially since the comic industry has jumped head-first into making comic book movies. Last time I covered the new Iron Man movie. I believe this would be a good “back issue” pick to grab for your collection or sell on ebay. To see what issues you should buy or sell, go here.

Today I will talk, briefly about Hulk 2. If you haven’t seen the trailer (again, as I mentioned before, I don’t like to watch the trailers but I chose to do that for both movies coming out this summer to curb my curiosity) then check it out to the right.

If any of you watched the first Hulk movie - it was either a bomb for you or you really enjoyed it. Many believe the Ang Lee version was a disappointment. Hopefully Marvel/Hollywood got this one right and it will deliver the goods. I’m kinda gun-shy to tell you to pick up a couple of back-issue comics related to this movie - BUT I will anyways!

If you don’t know already,  the Hulk 2 Movie is featuring Abomination. The appearance of this foe was in Tales to Astonish #90 and continued in #91. These would be the issues to pick up and or sell since the movie is based on them. Go for as high a grade as you can at the best price you can get it.

That’s it for now. Give me your comments of whether you’ve been using tactics like this or not.
