Week of December 4: Over the Garden Wall and the rise of All Ages
In the last year there has been a lot of speculation around children’s books. We can look at the rise (and fall) of Farlaine the Goblin #1 or the tremendous run Adventure Time comics has had with Boom! and the very sporadic high priced #1 sales. My little Pony and Skyward, also all ages books, have seen a very large interest in sales, fan growth, and second market speculation. Last week Over the Garden Wall Special #1 came out from Boom – selling out at diamond. This book was selling last week for $10+ and this week has made a steady increase selling towards the $25 mark.
Not a lot of stores ordered this book, and a lot of comic stores have special kids comic sections – so this might be a little difficult to track down.

Happy Speculating
I’m not sure were to post leads for you at, so here’s a comment. I think Hellblazer #1 is heating up again. I had two copies listed on eBay for a month, both for around $40 both had ended without bids multiple times, then in the last week I sold both of them, one for $40 and the other for $75.
