Been away from collecting comics for about 15 years. Coming back and finding your channel has been a blessing, as I've been able to learn a ton about 'modern' collecting, grading and investing. Looking forward to more nuggets of wisdom from you and this community.
Great video ! Picked UF 4 in a 9.6 back in 2019 for. 100 bucks also bought the 2nd appearance newsstand 9.4 for 900 last fall . Glad I sprang for them !
I bought my copy of Ultimate Fallout 4 almost 3 years ago for $35 dollars. I wish I would have bought more than 1 copy. It came back from CGC a 9.6. I agree UF4 has a lot of room to grow and could become a blue chip key in time. I plan on holding unto it my copy for the long haul as tempting it may be to sell. I bet Miles definitely makes a cameo this year in Spider-man 3 causing another rise in sales.
I mean every spec UA-cam channel was talking about UF4 after PS5 game release was bound to get the hype train rolling. Don’t sleep on the UF4 second prints tho. Can still find NM raw copies around $100
@@BrysComics I definitely will at some point. It’s minty too!!! It’s chillin back at my parents with all the rest of my ultimate Spider-Man collection haha
I think UF #4 is the AF #15 of our time! Miles is a fully realized character and has the potential to carry the franchise after Peter Parker is finally retired.
During the spike many previous actors that played Spider-Man to include McGuire and Garfield were spotted on sets but remained as “rumors” of a reprisals...(Spider-Verse?) There was also a young looking person covered in a long winter that resembled a young black male walking on a set. I tried to look for the photo again but no luck. This was around winter time so a perpetual flow of rumors that is not far fetched is what pushing this character plus investor groups soaking up the rare grades is also worth considering.
Love the suggestions! I've been trying to stock up on cheaper smaller Keys and for a Character like Miles this is excellent info. I did happen to grab both UF4 second printings at 9.6 around $100 a piece and those both are already double and triple of what I paid on them.
I picked up a nice copy of the newsstand version of UC Spider-Man 1 for cover price at my LCS last week. Owner bought in a full collection and I was the first person to dig the boxes.
@@BrysComics Yep, if I could add pics I would show you. Has a couple of color breaking spine ticks, definitely not a 9.8, but for $3.99 I will take it. Same shop I bought the 1 per store BRZRKR issue for cover as well. It's my honey hole. :)
The market triple coincides with, I think, was from Key collector reporting that Miles has already been cast/director chosen. I remember when the rumor came out and that and the title screen of the 2nd animated movie both coincided with it.
Got the Enter The Spider-Verse 1:10 Miles variant for cover price back when the movie came out. Sending it off this week since it was going for quite a lot a couple months ago and has doubled the last couple weeks.
I still feel that Miles Morales Ultimate Spider-Man 1 Staples variant has the best cover art of Miles. Such an iconic kinda scene setting with Miles between the NYC taxis.
@@BrysComics Is that the Fionna Staples variant? I purchased that last September and the price has been surprisingly flat compared to other Miles Morales books. Any opinion on Spider-Man #1 Nas Illmatic homage "hip hop variant" by Adi Granov? I purchased Ultimate Fallout #4 last September as well. Some people theorized that the price increases are attributed to the stimulus checks in the U.S., but the timing of those don't really coincide with the price increases we're seeing. Like someone else just commented, people are probably realizing that Miles Morales is THE Spider-Man for the younger generation and this could be the Amazing Fantasy #15 (rarity withstanding) of our time. I'm not old enough to have been around for AF 15, and certainly not rich enough to buy it now, but it was nice to know that I could afford the first appearance of a major character from this era. Keep up the great work. I appreciate the due diligence/market analysis behind your investments.
I am definitely a Miles fan, and like you are hunting for some spec books. I just scored a high grade UC Spider-Man, I was too leery of grabbing a still in bag one. That's a nice newsstand you have, very jelly. I am also hopeful for that Champions 1 book. It keeps popping up now on books to look out for. Miles will be on the big screen, this is just the ground floor right now!
It wasn't just UF4 that went up a lot from 12/20-3/21. The entire market seems to have doubled or tripled for many keys. I think it was mostly the stimulus payments. If you go back about July 2020, when the first stimulus payment went out, the market for most keys also jumped a lot. It settled for many a few months later but then jumped again in December. I'm wondering if it will settle again or not. The US government is also printing an enormous amount of money, which means the available pool of dollars is larger, which you would think would lead to inflation and keep prices heading higher. No idea if that will manifest or not, a lot of people have different opinions on it, but it will be interesting to see how things play out. Btw I had a 9.8 UF4 I sold not long before it doubled to 1k. I'd bought it raw for $30 so I was just thinking: hey, 20x return on this. Wish I would've kept it though lol
@@johnny_5alive. sorry Johnny I only have the one copy of ultimate Fallout 4. I have 1 or two duplicates of some non-key issues. I can take a look if you’re interested
Good discussion. I feel like UF4 has come nowhere near peaking in demand. I feel like his 1st app will hit over 5k ungraded in the near future. He’s just too popular and anyone can see that his popularity will continue to grow. I think the bounce to comics values could have come from the trading card collectors bringing in trading card money to comics, I’ve seen quite a few videos from prominent sports card collectors mentioning that a lot of the sports card collectors feel a lot of comics are undervalued and they have deep pockets so they’re buying up comics and pushing up values. Of course this is just speculation but it does seem to be a common thought from the numerous videos I’ve seen from the sports cards community.
I’d love to buy Ultimate Comics Spider-Man #1, newsstand variant, and sit on it until I can get it CGC/signed for the Gold label, but at this point I think I have a better chance of getting hair off of Big Foots’ back! 😓
Hi we are Peter Parker ( Toby, Andrew & Tom say) I, I, I’m Miles, where am I??? That would be amazing to see on the big screen in No Way Home...one can only wish
I know I just got back into comics and been following you and your advice, but I noticed on Ebay there's a bunch of Ultimate Fallout ,#4 for cheap am I missing something or 2nd printing etc???
Watch the version by looking at the face. If miles head is hidden and dark it is a first print and worth more money. 2 print has his face fully revealed and highlighted. There is also a variant of the 2 print which is a white cover with miles face
@@BrysComics I'm still learning from guys like you, so take what I'm saying like I'm super new to all this. That said when I look up this book on ebay I've seen them for like $100 dollars or so am I looking at wrong books ???
@@soundwave_9568 Most of the time I mention prices for a CGC graded 9.8. That's basically the highest grade awarded for comics (there are 9.9 and 10's but hardly ever). So certified comics have a much easier to track value because you can compare apples to apples. Ungraded books prices can be all over the map because condition varies so much.
@@BrysComics oh ok, I knew that graded is so much better and worth more just dont know how much or even Even how many of the book were graded following the census. So again learning and much appreciated to your help. Love the show as well keep the vids coming.... Mad respect

Game Release + Christmas gift money + Stimulus Checks= Increased Sale Prices on UF4
Very good point. I thought about that but didn’t know if that was enough to move the needle that much. You might be right...
Been collecting all things miles for the kiddo. Missed out on a couple but I got about 12 years to get em before I gift them all to him. 🤞🤞🤞
Ultimate Fallout 4 is our generations Hulk 181 for sure, great video!!

Love to see Ultimate Comics #1 go up. Loving that I got the Newsstand as a kid when it came out. It makes me want to get it graded even more!!!
Wait you’re sitting on a newsie? Let’s send that sucker in!
@@BrysComics I definitely will at some point. It’s minty too!!! It’s chillin back at my parents with all the rest of my ultimate Spider-Man collection haha
Im surprised ultimate comics spiderman hasnt gone up yet like uf4
Good looking out!!

Peter Parker will forever be tier 1 as Spidey.
Insightful video and great research!
Great material again! Good stuff to know and some solid recommendations for additional Miles Morales keys.

Great video, I think Miles will show up in a secret ending to blow everyone away as Marvel likes to do and it will be a live a action.
Love the suggestions! I've been trying to stock up on cheaper smaller Keys and for a Character like Miles this is excellent info. I did happen to grab both UF4 second printings at 9.6 around $100 a piece and those both are already double and triple of what I paid on them.

Can you do a vid on tips for private transactions? How do we make good connections in the hobby without getting burned?
Hey Bry, good info and I agree with your suggestion on selling UF 4 if people need the money.👍🏼
Solid content as always, Bry!

if people are unaware i am a huge ultimate fallout #4 fan but only in a 9.6 as the 9.8 are super overrated IMO. but that book got some legs!
Lmao! I think you might have some resubmit candidates...
I still feel that Miles Morales Ultimate Spider-Man 1 Staples variant has the best cover art of Miles. Such an iconic kinda scene setting with Miles between the NYC taxis.
I love that one too, I regret not pulling the trigger when it was $500

Champions #1 lookin hot right now great picks !
SALUTE BRY! GREAT INFO AS ALWAYS! I GOT MY BRZRKR BOOKS IN LAST WEEK! SALUTE BRO!
🙌🙏🏻
Love a bit of miles / blinding cover usm 1
I’m definitely gonna check out one of those specs...I got the Silk #2 Rose Besch variant which is kinda blowing up like you said
He's going to make a cameo
I just want the Ultimate universe to return with new stories.
I bought all those books, including UF4, for coverprice. Been collecting Miles since the beginning.
Wow!!
Do have an extra 2nd print looking for to get 1 for my 2 year old he watches that movie every day. 😁

Never!!!! The moon or bust!
People had a lot of stimulus money. Many people just didn't have the money to buy that kind of book until they got the stimulus, imo
I think you might be right
Champions #1 1:100 variant by Alex Ross is amazing but so hard to find!
Great video
Great vid, can you do one for asm 300, 361, 252, symbiote keys

eBay...

i dont think this is the peek. I can see miles and gwen getting a show together or a movie series together
What do you think about Marvel Previews 95? 1st appearance before UF4 technically
Honestly, I’m not a fan. I mean have you ever read a previews mag? It just doesn’t hold the same place in my mind...
The miles morales video game came out for the ps4/5 and caused a spike.
Cameo first
