Pulps aren’t trading like “key-chasing” comics this fortnight—they’re moving like a run-builder market. The 1930s volume leaders (Black Mask, Dime Detective, Spider) repeat, and the “most traded issues” list even shows multiple issues from the same titles—classic gap-filling behaviour. Dollars still concentrate, especially when crossover magnets like Weird Tales appear, but the real pulp engine is steady serial collecting.

This fortnight’s 1950s data flips the expected script: romance leads the decade in dollars, with Pictorial Romances ($27,767) and Top Love Stories ($25,175) out-earning superhero staples like Action Comics and Batman. Volume still sits with the familiar high-frequency movers (Four Color, DC mains, EC horror), but the sales leaders suggest a specialist lane where high-grade scarcity + cover appeal can spike hard without dominating trade frequency.

GPAnalysis recorded $5.26M in CGC-graded comic, magazine, and pulp sales from 21,762 books over Feb 10–23, with a $97 median keeping the market’s ‘typical’ sale firmly liquid. Amazing Spider-Man (1963) led trading activity again (1,394 sold; about $0.6M), while the fortnight’s top result came from the Golden Age: All-Select Comics #9 CGC 9.6 (1945) at $34,995. Across decades, familiar Marvel/DC anchors held the foundation, while the 2020s continued to reward new-release collectibility—led by Absolute Batman (2024), the decade’s top-selling title.

GPAnalysis tracked $17,647,514 in CGC-graded sales across major venues over the past fortnight, spanning 21,726 individual books (comics, magazines, and pulps). The median price paid was $89.

Trophy sale, not trophy fortnight: The $69k Amazing Fantasy #15 is a headline, but only 1.32% of total sales — the fortnight isn’t riding on one book.

The CGC-graded market posted $19,205,091 in recorded sales from 18,890 individual books over the last 14 days, with a $95 median holding steady across major venues for comics, magazines, and pulps. The fortnight’s defining moment was a true hobby landmark: Action Comics (1938) #1 CGC 9.0 sold via ComicConnect for $15,000,000.

A $90 median and 19,046 slabs tells the story: this wasn’t a thin ‘headline-only’ fortnight—it was a market with breadth. ASM stayed liquid, TMNT delivered the knockout sale, and the 2020s kept punching above their weight with new-era leaders that are starting to look like real pillars rather than passing noise.
