Shark Week was from July 11 to July 18. To honor Shark Week, I will blog about a shark character. The character that comes to mind is King Shark.
King Shark first appeared in Superboy volume 4 #0 (October 1994) as a cameo. His first full appearance in Superboy vol 4 #9 (November 1994). King Shark has superhuman strength and enhanced senses.
He appeared regularly in CW The Flash TV show. King Shark famous battle is actually against Gorilla in season 5 titled “King Shark vs. Gorilla Grodd” debuted on March 5, 2019.
A copy of Superboy volume 4 #9 CGC 9.8 sold for $89.95 on January 16, 2019. On July 22, 2019 a copy of Superboy volume 4 #9 CGC 9.8 sold for $135.00. A copy of Superboy volume 4 #9 CGC 9.8 sold for $118 on July 21, $119 on July 26 and $160 on July 31, 2020.
The prices of this book has went up because a copy of Superboy volume 4 #9 CGC 9.8 sold for $295 on July 17, $325 on July 29 and $207.50 on July 25, 2021.
The new Suicide Squad movie will have Harley Quinn, Deadshot, King Shark, Ratcatcher, Polka Dot Man and Peacemaker. The first two (Harley Quinn and Deadshot) are A list characters. King Shark is a B list character, the rest of them are D list characters. The D list characters will probably die in the movie in my opinion.
Will his appearance in the new Suicide Squad affect the value?
