Shang-Chi is hitting theaters in a couple of weeks, and the books starring the kung-fu master are still not jumping up like most would have thought. That is good for collectors, though, as that means we can still afford them and can fill some holes in our collections. Graded copies of Special Marvel Edition #15 are high, of course, but if you are a raw collector, Heritage Auctions has a really super nice raw copy taking bids today. As of this writing, it is sitting at $225, which is a great price for such a beautiful copy of this book. Check out the classic Shang-Chi cover down below.
