    Offhand I don't believe it's listed in Wizard.

    *checks*

    I stand corrected. NM is $250.

    If you can, check the eBay auctions to see if they had a completed auction for Bone #1 to see what it's really going for, too.

    Indeed. Much better gauge of fair market value IMO.

    It's a tough book to find on ebay, at least copies that sell in order to gage a price. There are a couple on right now, but no ones buying/paying attention to them because of their outrageous BIN prices. Hard to figure out a decent price to pay for a issue in fine condition.

    I say to look at online comic shops and see what the asking price is. Try Graham Crackers, Mile High, and Midtown Comics.

    This is off topic a bit, but I'm wondering, from what I see it looks like Wizard's page count went down a lot, but the price went up, is that right? I haven't gotten one in ages so I might be mistaken

    Indeed. The price guide is now 10 pages tops. They are now a comic information mag rather than a price guide. I stopped buying Wizard years ago and only pick up the issues that have something really interesting in it (reminds me to get the latest one for Iron Man). The mag has gone way down in quality.

    I'd recommend getting Comic Buyers Guide

    Mile High's prices are usually a lot higher than the norm, though.
