I received an e-mail the other day from Heritage Auction House in Dallas. It was sent out as the stock market was tanking and people were running for financial cover. Heritage wanted to address the collectibles market and how they were doing.

According to Heritage all is going well.

Wizard Magazine runs a popular section in their monthly price guide called “Top 5 Over 5”

I thought it would be fun to keep a tally of how they are doing online with some real sales.

Out picks for this time (Wizard price in “()” ):

– Batman: The Killing Joke ($40)
– Watchmen 1 ($35) (comic book movie tie-in – I like it)
– New Mutants 98 ($30) (ditto)
– New Mutants 87 ($15) (ditto)
– Uncanny X-men 266 ($40) (ditto)

Here are the results (make sure to click below for more issues):
