I finally saw Transformers last night, and I must say it was a lot of fun to watch.\u00a0 It was kind of a surprise delivery from Netflix since there was some kind of mix-up in my queue last week.\u00a0 We sat down with the boys last night, fired up the X-Box 360 HD-DVD player and movie night began.<\/p>\n
I have to say the sound was great and the HD picture quality was excellent.\u00a0 The movie followed that standard “geek boy” plot, but it was still a lot of fun.<\/p>\n
What does this have to do with comic book movies?<\/p>\n
This was a complete miss for me.\u00a0 To be honest I just didn’t think the Transformer comic books would fare as well as they did.\u00a0 The movie is based on a toy, not a comic book!\u00a0 In the end it doesn’t matter what I think, the market speaks and it spoke loud a clear.\u00a0 A book that was all but worthless in value a few years ago hit some amazing numbers.<\/p>\n
Transformers #1 went from about a $150 book in CGC 9.8 a couple of years ago to upwards of $450 – $500 dollars this summer.\u00a0 Check the prices on E-bay and you will still see high grade raw copies capturing a decent amount of cash.It is on its way down now, but that is to be expected.\u00a0 There is talk of a Transformers 2 movie, so who knows, we may see a bump in price again.\u00a0 I’ll be watching and hopefully not miss the opportunity again.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
