Are you thinking outside the box with your X-men Origins: Wolverine comic book picks? We all know the obvious, Incredible Hulk 181, Wolverine #1 (both the mini-series and regular series). But what about some other characters?

In the Comics-Movies-Cash System I talk about how some not so obvious picks have really racked up the returns. These books are usually lower priced before the movie is announced, but when the characters are known and the movie release approaches, some of these have really exploded in price. The Comic Book Movie System goes over some of these books in detail.

To give you an idea of what I’m talking about, take a look at the following books and monitor their prices in the E-bay widget below. The comics I’m watching are:

– Uncanny X-men 266 – Gambit
– Uncanny X-men 132 – Emma Frost
– Iron Fist 14 – Sabretooth
– New Mutants 98 – Deadpool

Make sure these books are on your watch list.

X-men Origins: Wolverine is getting closer and there have been some impressive TV spots lately. You can watch the 3rd spot below. I’ll include the Wolverine movie comic book links I’m continuing to watch in the next post.

Enjoy!

Poor Punisher, he just can’t get any box office respect. One movie after another just flops for this character. There were great hopes for Punisher: War Zone, but alas it was not meant to be. As of the end of 2008 the movie has only brought in a pathetic $8 million!

But what does this mean to the values and sales prices of the Punisher’s first appearance in Amazing Spider-man #129? This book just keeps holding on. Check out the price below and make sure to add them to you own comic book value and price guide.
