They did not deliver the rest of the order from JULY just because 1 item was missing ? WTF ? They could have just informed and sent that seperately. As for the Gupta Bros, no idea WTF are they smoking ! Just announce your next series, take pre-orders directly through your site, have a cut off date, print those minimum number of copies and ship. Limited runs can be reprinted on demand, after taking pre-orders. Such a f**king complicated way of checking inventory (sites, TG groups of those sites etc), then order and wait for months. And then they wonder why are more chaps not reading Hindi comics. CH ships partial orders if the guy asks. Just that they lose money on shipping. Many orders shipped partially in that group itself. And balcharit CE is arriving in evening today so makes sense to wait. I will also order in evening. I also got pissed off in July when my orders were delayed, then I understood that it's best to check with seller first and order. Though now I know which ones are in stock by following the entire scene. Some guys have even created excel sheets tracking dates Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is Hemant Kumar art, I personally prefer this over heroes bending their bad anatomy bodies to kick some a*s and having walls of text all over pages. You won't find such art in Doga or Bhediya comics though. Best Nagraj series is Narak Nashak Nagraj. 5 comics set (average stories but build up towards future releases)+Takshak Makbara combo(story picks up) +Narak Nashak utpatti series (origin series) and now Aadi parv.

alphabeta Posted December 6, 2021 Report Share Posted December 6, 2021 Guys, Do you think hardcover comics / graphic novels hold their value ? I would like to buy some artbooks / hardcover editions but in case I need to get rid of them, will I be able to sell it on the used market for near their purchase price ? I am talking collector editions and the like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am talking collector editions and the like. Old Hindi comics have tremendous value. Original prints of 6 rs comics are sold as high as 350 depending on rarity. 150-200 rs is minimum price. English silver age or golden age comics which are no longer in print can fetch decent amount too. Tons of Facebook groups where the comics and graphic novels are sold.

Yes. English comics. I cannot read Hindi - (extremely basic reading level). Basically if I know at the back of my head that I can get back a good chunk of my investment in the expensive versions of the books, it will be easier to pony up money for them. Second, I also find that hardcover editions of books go out of print much faster and sometimes it is harder to find them. The only reason for me to get rid of the books is because I want to downsize the collection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

radicaldude Posted January 23, 2022 Report Share Posted January 23, 2022 Received this as a gift ?. Don't want to open it at the moment so will look for a pdf copy. But the artwork seems amazing.

You probably already know this but you can check out Kaneda's bike from the Akira manga/anime. Also, the Batman comics/fanart should have plenty of interesting vehicle designs. Here's a piece of concept art for the Batpod that recently popped up in my feed: Edited January 25, 2022 by STICK3Rboy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
