What was the price of New Mutants issue 99? What was the price of X force issue 2? What was the standard price for Marvel and DC comics at that time?FYI, an article was written 5 years ago on this very subject, and comics were vastly under priced even at 1.95.
in the 90s you could go in with 10 bucks, and get 5 issues. Today you get one...
No one can afford comics right now, and in the 90s no one had a problem buying them. 1.25 on terrible paper, and horrible color reproduction. you were not getting a bargain... And just an FYI Marvel raised their prices from 1 dollar to 1.50 long before Image was even created. long before the success of Xmen 1 and Xforce 1

If you really think Comics were expensive during that time period you weren't there.
Do you even know what Indy is? Image was just a bunch of creative owned companies pulled together under a common umbrella for advertising, and distribution.
The head of Image at the time was Valentino, one of the biggest indy supporters on the planet. He brought everyone from Colleen Doran to Alan Moore to them.
They wanted nothing to do with the big 2. Their mission statement was to create their own books, and own their characters instead of making them for other companies who retained all rights.
That is the independent spirit completely.
You just have no education on a subject you are trying to argue. You've literally been proven wrong in every fact you post.
That's stupid imo.
Ill give you a hint it was $1.00.
