  • Will the Wolverine movie make back issues hot? I heard the Silver Samurai will be in it so I would think his 1st appearance will go up? Does anyone else have some projections influenced by the upcoming movie?

  • I think it will just depend on how good the movie is and if fans of it will want to continue to read the stories that inspired it. Right now I think everyone is hesitant because of how bad the last one was.

  • I got a feeling that if it depends on the quality of the movie they will be giving SS's first appearance away afterwards.

  • I don't think a Wolverine movie will help prices. Wolverine has been in so many movies now and he is already such a popular character on his own that I don't think a movie will make a lot of difference.

    Silver samurai may go up a little but I think it's more because of investors thinking it may go up
    Not collecting any more but I still enjoy comics now and then...

    +1. My thoughts exactly.

  • I would agree, but I might look at special characters in the movie, which could influence other comic values. maybe

  • Has anyone seen the movie yet?

  • I saw it yesterday and thought it was great. The action is superb and the story definitely had substance. If you're holding off on seeing this and waiting for DVD because of the last one, I would recommend you check it out in theaters.

    End credit scene is epic.

  • Good movie! I could have done without the Jean Grey scenes. Mariko and Yukio were great. I am now pulling out my Wolverine limited series(Claremont/Miller) tpb to read again!

  • I would hope that it would make the back issues higher since I am selling a really large lot of Wolverine 1-144, but realistically I do not think it will really make any kind of noticeable impact on the price.
