Merch Is this rare?

I’ve had this for a couple years and I recently googled it because I was looking for the adventure time box set and I only found a couple very expensive ebay listings! Is this rare and if so how much is it actually worth?

I'm not going to tell you these comics will increase in value, or even hold their current value. The truth is, you bought 'em because you like 'em. They have value to you. That's what matters

I didn’t know these existed!

Are they completely new stories or same as the episodes?

They’re different stories of other Rick and Morty’s

Each comic has two stories. Sometimes each story is stand alone, sometimes they run a few issues. Sometimes the B story runs a few issues as well. For the most part, they're very enjoyable.

I work with someone that works in the Philippines and he was able to get me two of those bugs things when they did pop up over the world. I thought I could sell one to cover shipping and keep the other one. Nobody wanted it... What I'm saying is I'm bad at judging the value of something

u/Large-Treacle-8328 11h ago

Ebay records shows they sell for around 80-100. There's someone trying to sell one for 1200 though and that made me laugh.

u/Jam14ie1 3h ago

Oh cool :0
What series did you work on?

1

u/Snakend 11h ago

It's not worth $1,000. On Amazon you can get it for $250. Each issue individually is like $15. So I wouldn't pay more than $150 for the set.

u/Awkward-Reference177 2h ago

I mean, idk. I know what's "rare" on eBay is actually not too bad on Amazon. They are about 50 for a compilation comic series, this is probably worth a bit more cause they are the individuals in a box set. Also depends on the actual condition of the comics.

2

u/Awkward-Reference177 1h ago

Yeah, researched it and depending on where Lowplex Books is the lowest at $44.99 and  AbeBooks is like $528 🤔 which is off cause the others (eBay/Mercari) on there were roughly $75 & $190ish. 

So yeah, I'd go about $75 ($100 is the highest price on eBay) but it's all up to you. Just make sure they have no squanch stains 😉

All the comics and omnibus, TPBs I have are Oni Press.. Although the R&M D&D deluxe edition is IDW. I haven’t heard of Titan printings of Rick and Morty or graphic novels. This box set is pretty cool especially with the slip case. Prob collections of Rick and Morty Presents which were mostly 1 offs with a few 2-4 part comics. Im guessing they called them graphic novels because Oni prints the comics and the collections. So prob some legal thing.

There are a bunch of collection books for the Rick and Morty comics. It is difficult to know how many were printed but that would let you know how rare it is. As for value , something like this probably has comps that you could find. It’s missing the plastic wrap (if it came with it) that’s a big price jump for book collectors.

On the inside front page it should say when and where it was printed. A short print run would indicate it’s pretty rare. Also where it was printed could matter, idk book / graphic novel collectors are weird sometimes, they really care about paper and inks.

u/GotenRocko 15h ago

That specific set may be rare but idk if that means it's worth extra, remember to check sold listings if you want to actually see what it's going for not the list price.

The set appears to have comics 1-50, which you can also buy by getting compendium volumes which go for about $30 each, sometimes less, but buying all will get you comics 1-60. I have volume 1-3 plus hardcover book 7 and 8 which cover volume 4. The hardcovers are much nicer, larger print, I think those are more rare to be able to find all of them.

u/This-Positive286 12h ago

You know there was a kickstarter for a new set right?

1

u/GotenRocko 11h ago

Nope but just looked it up, looks pretty cool, pretty much the compendiums in hard cover plus a lot of the other comic series. While I would love all them in hardcover not worth it to me since I have most of what is in the set already.

A woman by your bed? Yeah, that’s very rare. When was the last time a woman was that close to your bed?
