So I am looking for some old and discontinued comics and I check on ebay every so often with no luck. I have asked a few local comic shop and it has produced the same results. Anyone know of any websites or other resources that I could use, thanks!

Are you trying to appraise something you have, or buy something you want?

Buy something I want, I came into comics later in my life then most have nothing of value yet

If anyone is curious its the french comic called "The Killer". The right for the movie of this comic were just picked up paramount and David Fincher is due to direct. Brad Pitts production company will also do work on this film.

Pick up a copy of "Overstreet's Comic Book Price Guide." Tons of dealers advertise there.

Where could I grab one of those?

I have tones of Batman and Spiderman from the late 80's/early 90's in mint/near mint (everything's in acid bags). Never followed up on their worth though (lots of 1st issues too).

Most comic book stores will not carry that comic, since if they did it probably already was sold out. I would still look in the yellow pages and call all my local comic shops. I was able to find a few issues that I was looking for that way. But most of the time, I have to resort to ebay on rare issues.

Well the comic shop I most often go to doesn't carry it and I can't seem to find it on ebay anywhere maybe I will try a few more locations local to me.
