I'm almost recovered from San Diego Comic Con. Almost. But in yesterday's
Skybound 5th Anniversary Box Set ($80)-This limited edition box set includes 10 Skybound #1 issues, each featuring a special 5th anniversary cover treatment. Titles include: THE WALKING DEAD, INVINCIBLE, THIEF OF THIEVES, GHOSTED, MANIFEST DESTINY, BIRTHRIGHT, SUPER DINOSAUR, CLONE, WITCH DOCTOR and OUTCAST BY KIRKMAN & AZACETA. The box set also comes with a Skybound branded flash drive loaded with digital collections of these titles' first volumes. 20 of the boxes will have randomly inserted redemption cards for a chance at CGC graded 9.8 first prints of these titles, with the label signed by Robert Kirkman. Also look for randomly inserted sets that feature all black and white variant covers of these special issues.
Those with the B&W variant covers have sold for up to $700 now, though are more commonly around the $400-$300 mark.
But if you got one of those sets and sold it broken down,, with The Walking Dead going for up to $200 on its own, Outcast for up to $150, Invincible up to $50, etc. Even though copies of the sets are currently on sale for $400, breaking it down, you could clear $600 without too much difficulty.
The non-B&W variant set still sell well, up to $180, but you can still get them for cover price on eBay if you look.
