If you find yourself wondering “How Do I Value Comics?” Don’t worry, you’re not alone. Lots of Collectors today want to know exactly how much their investment is worth. If you ever want to sell the titles individually or if you want to auction off your entire collection some day, you’ll need to know the fair market value. Luckily, the answer is simple. The only way to find the real worth of comics you own is to have them appraised.
Getting an appraisal is easier than ever. Upload your collection on to iTaggit.com, fill in the fields and upload some pictures. Click on the comic you’d like to value, hit the “Item Actions” button and then select “Appraise This Item” at the bottom of the list. Make your selection and follow the remaining steps. Before you know it, you’ll know the worth of your comic from real comics appraisers.

Special Image Cover Coming Soon!
If you love graphic novels from Image, this is your lucky day! Erik Larsen is teaming up with Ryan Ottley for a Walking Dead #50 super hero variant cover that will only be available as one for every twenty-five copies ordered.
The cover was originally supposed to be much more rare, only one for every one hundred copies ordered, but the level of demand was so high that Image decided to make it more accessible.
Erik Larsen, best known for his work on Savage Dragon with Image Comics, has done extensive work with Marvel Comics and DC. Some of the most notable titles he’s worked on include Amazing Spider-Man, Fantastic Four, Wolverine, The Outsider and Nova. Ryan Ottley is known for his penciling skills. His use of realism and caricature are amazing to say the least. The combination of these two master’s styles is as exciting as can be.
No need to check your comics price guide, you can get the black and white comic for $2.99 at the end of April. If you can’t live without the special edition cover, check the web. You should expect the comics prices to be significantly higher than the regular edition.

WonderCon 2008 Coming Soon!
Hey comic book collectors, it is almost that time of year again! Our favorite heros, villains and other characters come together for a four day extravaganza. For those of you who aren’t quite sure what I’m talking about, WonderCon is coming!
WonderCon is a comic, sci-fi and movie convention held in San Francisco every year. The Con was started in 1987 by John Barrett and was originally held in the Oakland Convention Center. After the 2000 convention, WonderCon became part of the Comic
Con International family of conventions and has since been known for early screenings of comic book related movies. WonderCon 2008 will be held February 22-24 at the Moscone Center in San Francisco.
If you can’t make it out to all the cons this year, don’t worry. There are plenty of commentators ready to give you the stories. One in particular has earned himself quite a fan base, his name is Bob Stencil. Search the web to see Comic-Con through Bob’s eyes. It is quite a treat!
If you can, you should really try to attend at least one comic convention this year, if not for the fun, then at least for all the back issues of comics for sale! Once you’ve added all those new comics to your collection, don’t forget to let iTaggit help you find comic book appraisals.

My Last Day At iTaggit
Dear iTaggit Users,
I would like to thank you for your patronage to my blogs, as I have thoroughly enjoyed writing for you over the past eight months. Today is sadly my last day at iTaggit, but I could not be handing over the reigns to a cooler blogger. You may have seen me mention ummjamiesha and her collections in past blogs, and Ms. Jamie is indeed my successor. I look forward to taking part in iTaggit as strictly a user now, and will enjoy reading Jamie's contributions to the site. Thank you again for all of your comments and encouragements in the past. They certainly helped me develop my skill.
Keep on collecting!
-Kristen
