The Pull List: Famous Faces & Funnies Shares This Week’s Best Sellers and Biggest Key Books
Welcome to The Pull List, Comic Book Addicts’ weekly comic shop spotlight celebrating the stores that keep New Comic Book Day moving.
This week, we are featuring Famous Faces & Funnies, a longtime comic shop destination for readers, collectors, gamers, and pop culture fans. Instead of one list, we have two stories this week: the shop’s current best-selling books and the highest-valued key issues currently in the store.
That means we are looking at both sides of comic collecting: the books readers are buying right now and the major back-issue treasures that make collectors stop, stare, and start doing mental math.

Story One: Famous Faces & Funnies’ Top 5 Best-Selling Books
These are the books moving at Famous Faces & Funnies this week.
1. Absolute Batman
DC’s Absolute Batman continues to be a powerhouse with readers, and Famous Faces & Funnies noted that it is not just one issue moving well. It is “all the Absolutes,” which says a lot about how strongly DC’s Absolute line is connecting with fans.
Batman is always a dependable name, but the Absolute format gives collectors and readers a bigger, bolder way to experience major stories. Whether fans are buying for the oversized presentation, the shelf appeal, or the modern Batman energy, Absolute Batman remains one of the shop’s strongest sellers.
2. Matt Fraction’s Batman
Batman takes another spot on the list with Matt Fraction’s Batman, showing that Gotham is still dominating the conversation.
Fraction’s name carries serious weight with comic readers thanks to his work across superhero, indie, and character-driven stories. Pair that creative reputation with Batman, and it is easy to see why fans are paying attention. For longtime DC readers and new fans alike, this is one of the titles making noise in the shop.
3. Transformers
The Transformers line continues to roll strong with readers, collectors, and fans of big science-fiction action.
The franchise has always blended nostalgia with explosive storytelling, but the current comic momentum has helped bring in both returning fans and newer readers. Giant robots, war, loyalty, betrayal, and huge visual stakes make Transformers one of the most reliable titles on the shelves right now.
4. Daredevil
Marvel’s Daredevil remains a steady favorite for fans who like street-level superhero drama with moral weight.
Daredevil has one of the strongest reputations in Marvel Comics for intense storytelling, crime drama, and personal stakes. Whether readers are following Matt Murdock for the action, the faith-driven conflict, the villains, or the long history of acclaimed runs, Daredevil continues to be a title that comic fans trust.
5. Battle Beast and Invincible
The fifth spot belongs to Battle Beast and the broader Invincible universe.
That is no surprise. Invincible continues to have massive crossover appeal thanks to the original comic’s reputation and the animated series bringing new fans into the world. Readers who discover Invincible often want more, and Battle Beast delivers exactly the kind of brutal, high-energy, character-driven action that keeps that universe exciting.
Story Two: Famous Faces & Funnies’ Highest-Valued Books in Store
Now we move from the hot sellers to the heavy hitters. These are the highest-valued books currently in the store.
1. Invincible #1 CGC 9.6 — $4,000
At the top of the list is a graded Invincible #1 at 9.6, priced at $4,000.
This is the kind of modern key that has become a true grail for many collectors. The debut of Mark Grayson and the launch of Robert Kirkman’s superhero universe helped create one of the most important independent superhero comics of the modern era. With Invincible continuing to reach new audiences, Invincible #1 remains a major collector target.
2. Amazing Spider-Man #14 — First Green Goblin — $700
Next up is Amazing Spider-Man #14, featuring the first appearance of the Green Goblin, priced at $700.
The Green Goblin is one of Spider-Man’s most important villains, and his debut remains a foundational Silver Age Marvel key. Any copy of this book has serious historical weight, especially for collectors focused on Spider-Man, Marvel villains, or major first appearances.
3. Peanuts #1 — Dell, Second Peanuts Comic — $500
Famous Faces & Funnies also has Peanuts #1 from Dell, identified as the second Peanuts comic, priced at $500.
This is a very different kind of collectible from the superhero keys, but that is what makes it stand out. Peanuts has a massive cultural legacy, and early comic book appearances tied to Charles Schulz’s beloved characters carry major crossover appeal. For collectors who appreciate classic newspaper-strip history, Peanuts #1 is a special piece.
4. Uncanny X-Men #5 — 1964 — $300
The list continues with Uncanny X-Men #5 from 1964, priced at $300.
Early X-Men issues are always worth a second look. Before the franchise became one of Marvel’s biggest cornerstones, these early Silver Age appearances helped establish the foundation for everything that followed. Uncanny X-Men #5 is a strong vintage Marvel book for collectors building an early mutant run.
5. Swamp Thing #37 — First Constantine — $250
Rounding out the top five highest-valued books is Saga of the Swamp Thing #37, priced at $250.
This is a major DC and Vertigo-related key because it features the first appearance of John Constantine. Constantine went on to become one of DC’s most enduring supernatural characters, with a long comics history across Hellblazer, Justice League Dark, and beyond. For fans of horror, occult comics, and Alan Moore-era Swamp Thing, Swamp Thing #37 is a book with real staying power.
Why Famous Faces & Funnies’ Lists Stand Out
What makes this week’s feature so fun is the contrast.
On one side, the best-selling list shows what readers are actively buying now: Batman, Transformers, Daredevil, Invincible, and Battle Beast. These are titles with momentum, recognizable characters, and strong fan interest.
On the other side, the highest-valued list shows the collector side of the shop: Invincible #1, Amazing Spider-Man #14, Peanuts #1, Uncanny X-Men #5, and Swamp Thing #37. That is a wide range of comic history, from modern indie superhero grails to Silver Age Marvel, classic strip characters, and landmark supernatural DC keys.
That is exactly why local comic shops matter. They are not just places to buy this week’s releases. They are living archives of comic book history.

Final Thoughts
A big thank you to Famous Faces & Funnies for sharing both their current best sellers and their highest-valued books with Comic Book Addicts.
This week’s lists show the full range of what makes comic shops exciting: hot new reads, legendary characters, major first appearances, rare finds, and books that connect generations of fans.
