Скачать или смотреть Comic Market Manipulation or Real Demand? | The Industry of Comics Show

Something strange is happening in the comic book market.

Brand new number one issues like D’Orc, Nectar, White Sky, and Florida Man vs. Cocaine Hippopotamus are hitting the secondary market at 40, 50, even 75 dollars within days of release.

Is this organic demand
Is it coordinated speculation
Or are we watching another cycle of manufactured heat

Tonight on The Industry of Comics, we break down what is really happening behind these sudden price spikes.

We discuss how secondary market momentum actually starts, the role of retailers and influencers, early access buzz, speculation versus manipulation, and where the line may exist between the two.

This is not about attacking creators or publishers. It is about asking real questions about transparency, sustainability, and long term trust in the comic book market.

If you collect, speculate, sell, or simply care about the future of the hobby, this conversation matters.

Join us live and be part of the discussion.
