ever because fans got their very first peek of the futuristic Cosmic Ghost Rider in the pages of Thanos #13, anything featuring this new character has exploded on the collecting scene.
While visitors are enjoying the Cates story as well as getting a look at “Old guy Thanos” (basically this story takes location in the extremely far-off future after Thanos defeated all of the universe’s heroes), it’s been the new vision of Ghost Rider (one who utilizes the an infinity gem to travel with time) that collectors are abuzz over. Thanos #15 only shipped to distributors last week, as well as numerous stores were selling out within the very first day, because this is the problem in which Ghost Rider exposed his former identity to the younger Thanos. For those who haven’t checked out that issue, I will keep this short article spoiler free.
Unlike other new/remodeled characters of late, I’m envisioning Cosmic Ghost Rider making a bigger effect on the marvel canon in the coming months. The truth that he possesses the time gem makes it simple for a writer to insert him into the present marvel Universe, as well as a Ghost Rider/Cosmic Rider altercation would offer great deals of comics. When that occurs (I believe it’s risk-free to presume it will occur at some point) Thanos #13 will get a boost…as if it needed one; a CGC graded 9.8 of the Geoff Shaw common cover has offered four times because December, averaging $160. You can still get ungraded “raw” copies in near mint for around $20, so you’ve got that going for you.
VARIANTS GALORE
Like many comics these days, collectors have lots of covers to select from when it concerns Thanos #13. There’s the common edition with the Geoff Shaw artwork, the Burrows lenticular swipe cover, the McKone tradition headshot cover, the Christopher trading card variant, as well as the Rafael Albuquerque cover.
The common edition is selling well, as well as that’s the one that can be discovered for somewhere around $20 ungraded. The lenticular cover is not as popular, as well as it’s selling for approximately $6. The headshot cover is doing a bit better, as well as it’s still fairly priced at $10, provide or take. You can snag a trading card variant for anywhere between $5-$10.
Where things get a bit much more expensive is the Albuquerque variant. This is the lowest print run of the set as well as harder to find by, which promptly increases the value. couple that with the very first appearance of Cosmic Ghost Rider as well as Old guy Thanos, as well as this is an costly comic. Although there are no recorded sales of graded copies just yet, raw copies are selling on eBay for $100-$150. like I stated earlier, provide marvel time to bring the Cosmic Rider into the present day marvel timeline to satisfy his counterpart, as well as this will be an even much more costly comic.
FINAL THOUGHTS
Time will tell, however I believe this new version of Ghost Rider will have staying power. I’m not anticipating him to overtake the conventional Ghost Rider in the comics or ended up being the next Deadpool or Wolverine, however I do photo him staying around after the Thanos Wins storyline wraps up. In the years to come, it will be worth the investment to get your hands on a Thanos #13 in near mint. even if it doesn’t bring you countless dollars in profit, it’s worth $20 to play it safe.
