The first five issues of the series will be collected into trade paperback and available this may from top Cow/Image Comics.GENIUS, VOL. 1, asks: what if the greatest military mind of our generation was born to a people who are already supremely conditioned to wage war, who know nothing but violence from birth and need to continually adapt to new predators in buy to survive? What if the second coming of Alexander the Great, of Genghis Khan, of Napoleon, of Patton… what if it was a teenaged girl from South Central, L.A. named Destiny? and what if she makes a decision to secede three blocks of the ‘hood from the Union? who is going to take it back from her and her army of gangbangers? who CAN?

SOUL NUMBERS by SENEKO (ep) and OBSOLETE by AARON BECKUM

Seneko uses A very great collection of Americana from a Connecticut singer/songwriter. The songs nearly feel like standards or classic blues covers. Aaron Beckum’s album, on the other hand, is a lot more psychedelic folk. The lyrics are modern tales of loneliness and burying our cell phones u dear the sea to help us neglect our broken relationships.

Both are strong releases. Recommended.
Obsolete by Aaron Beckum

NOSTALGIA kills by JILL SOBULE

Jill Sobule has been a one-hit question when her single “I Kissed a Girl” broke in the 1990s. She’s been an indie actress. She’s been a crowdfunding trailblazer, getting her fans to pay for her 2009 album California Years. She’s been a queer-rights folksinger.

So when she tells you nostalgia kills, she understands what she’s speaking about. At a point in her life as well as occupation when a lot of people begin looking into the rear view mirror as well as figuring out where they peaked, Sobule has released a collection of tunes about breaking up as well as battling of what she loves, as well as it’s quickly her finest album in years—maybe ever. She took eight years to compose these songs, as well as it shows. There are a number of tunes on right here that will break your heart. Others will make you believe back to when you last got your heart broken. perhaps it’s since I’m in the middle of the progressive erosion of my own marriage, however a tune like “I put My Headphones On,” about a lady “back in the guilt cage” developed for her by her lover, who just puts headphones on to block everything out…Wow.

There are likewise a few covers. She takes The five Stairsteps’ Ooh kid as well as transforms it from a tune of motivation to a tune of determined hope, as well as she does an particularly peaceful as well as acoustic cover of a tune she’s done before: Warren Zevon’s Don’t let us get Sick, one of the saddest as well as a lot of powerful like tunes ever written.

This album gets my greatest recommendation.

UNDERVALUED & OVERLOOKED COMICS – SILVER AGE

Hello, and welcome back to our weekly column where we take a look at a couple undervalued or overlooked comics from one of each of four comic book eras – golden Age, Silver Age, Bronze Age, and Copper Age – all in an attempt to find value for you, the comic book investor and collector.  Whether you’re a high roller or a bargain shopper, there will be something in here for everyone.  This week, it’s the Silver Age.  Let’s get started.

First appearance of Aqualad

The disparity between DC and marvel Silver Age comics continues to grow.  As prices go up, marvel books rise faster.  then when prices decline, DC books fall in a steeper trajectory.  Such is the case for adventure Comics #269, the overlooked and undervalued first appearance of Aqualad.  Now, I’m sure this statement will cause some guffaws out there in collectorland; this is, after all, Aqualad I’m talking about.  I’ll admit to finding some humor in the situation as well.  However, hear me out.

Aqualad, although admittedly a B-rate DC hero, is still a hero nonetheless and a founding member of the teen Titans.  In a world where first appearances of marvel B-rate villains command top dollar, certainly there should be some love for Garth, aka Aqualad.

There are only 103 copies of adventure Comics #269 in the CGC census, with the highest grade coming in at 9.2.  Here’s a look whatsoever of the sales of graded copies of this book so far in 2022:

That’s it.

The highest price paid for this book was $3,050 for a 9.0 copy in a fixed-price eBay sale in September 2020.  now let’s compare this to the debut of a marvel B-rate villain like, I don’t know, let’s say… the Wizard.  here are all the sales of unusual Tales #102 so far this year:

Same number of copies sold, and not a remarkable difference in the prices.  I can purchase that there are some collectors out there who rate the Wizard as being roughly equal in significance to Aqualad. but if that’s the case, why are there nearly triple the number of copies of unusual Tales #102 in the census (308 to be precise) as adventure Comics #269?  and why is the top price paid for a copy of the Wizard’s first appearance 145% higher – $7,500 for a 9.4 Pacific Comics Pedigree copy sold in a Heritage auction in November 2021 – than the highest price paid for the first appearance of Aqualad?

Sure, it’s a pedigree copy and in a higher grade.  but there are eight 9.4 graded copies of unusual Tales #102 floating around out there and only three 9.2 graded copies – the top grade – of adventure Comics #269.  I’ve said it before and I’m sure I will say it again:  if you’re searching for solid Silver Age investments, there’s no better place to look than DC keys.  adventure Comics #269 is one of those keys.

Later issues of Nick Fury

Despite everything I said above, there is still some value to be found in marvel Silver Age comic books.  Not all are overpriced, and numerous of the overlooked and underpriced ones are solid comics that are worth including in your collection.  There are few marvel Silver Age series that completists can chase quite like Nick Fury, agent of SHIELD.  comparable series in terms of number of issues in the run like Silver Surfer or doctor unusual have always been – in the case of the former – and much more recently – in the case of the latter – out of reach from a financial standpoint for numerous collectors.

In particular, the later issues after Jim Steranko had left the series and was no longer contributing covers, and before the series had looked to reprints beginning with Nick Fury, agent of shield #16, are among the most undervalued and overlooked Silver Age marvel comics to be found.  Let’s take a look at Nick Fury, agent of shield #11 as an example.

There are only 158 graded copies in the CGC census, an extraordinarily low number for a Silver Age marvel comic.  the most recent sale?  A 9.0 graded copy selling for a slashed $110 on June 10.  The highest price paid?  $837 for a 9.8 copy signed by Stan Lee, which sold in a Heritage auction in August 2016.

This is an extremely economical comic as are all of the later issues of this series.  They’re also good reads as well, much much more pleasurable than unusual Tales #102.

Next Week: Copper Age Undervalued & Overlooked

Well, that’s all we have time for this week.  join us next week as we take a look at some undervalued and overlooked Copper Age comics.
