..a double scoop edition of the Heat Vision newsletter: DEAD BY DAYLIGHT video game movie finds its writers in a unique pairing of scribes...a new CHARLIE'S ANGELS movie is in the works, with the writer of THE PROPOSAL. Plus: PROJECT HAIL MARY Lego. view.email.hollywoodreporter.com?vawpToken=PB...
A PROJECT HAIL MARY LEGO SET? Well, it doesn’t surprise us that Phil Lord and Chris Miller, the team that made The Lego Movie, would have a Lego set for their upcoming movie. Hailing from the company’s Icons line, it is a microscale spacecraft model kit for adults. The 830-piece set will retail for $99.99 when it hits stores March 1. And it comes with a minifigure of Ryan Gosling! Uh, we mean Ryland Grace, the character he plays in the Amazon MGM Studios movie. And there’s also a minifig of Rocky, the alien friend Grace makes along the way. The set also comes with a display stand that has a crank, that when turned, simulates the spaceship’s centrifugal gravity system. Now, Lego is touting the set as capturing the design of “the iconic interstellar spacecraft,” which seems a tad much, considering the movie doesn’t come out theatrically until March 20. But maybe not. We’ve been told that the studio tested the movie three times, and the scores from the screenings were 94, 95, and 96. Astronaut? More, like Astro-yes!

ANOTHER MONTH, ANOTHER COMIC BOOK RECORD, IT SEEMS. The collectible industry's eyes blew out of their collective sockets when Heritage Auctions announced Thursday it helped facilitate one of the largest private comic transactions ever recorded. In a one-two sales punch, one person plopped down $6 million for Batman No. 1, which features the first appearance of the Joker as well as Catwoman. The book is in the very high and very rare grade of CGC 9.4. They also bought the second highest graded copy of Superman No. 1 for $7 million. The book is an 8.5 CGC edition. Those sales now rank as fourth and third, respectively, for the most money paid for comics ever. And they come after November’s $9.1 million sale of Superman No. 1 in a 9.0 grade. (That copy is number two on the most valuable comic list.) It also comes after January’s megadeal of $15 million for Action Comics No. 1 in a 9.0 grade. We’re not going to get into why each book is important — historical relevance, pedigree, and all that —†t but we will ponder what it all means. Some in the comic collecting world are a bit skeptical over the actual sale. Sometimes comic book and comic art sales involve trading items of perceived value rather than actual money changing hands. Or sometimes it's a mix of barter and cash. And then you have someone publicly touting a price that may be inflated. Others are worried that the market is in Tulip fever territory because of the massive and seemingly out of nowhere jumps in these prices for comics. For instance, in a tale of two markets, a lot of prices for modern comics have fallen, many by 30 to 40 percent. An Amazing Spider-Man No. 194 (1979) in a CGC grade of 9.6, which features the first appearance of the Black Cat, was selling between $1,000 and $1,100 just over a year ago. That same book can now be had in the $600 to $700 range. Heritage, meanwhile, is saying that the collectible markets is evolving as it attracts “high-net-worth collectors, family offices and alternative-asset investors.” In the press release touting the sale, Jordan Seymour of SemperFi Comics, who was involved in the proceedings, stated, “We may be witnessing a transformational era in comic collecting. The combination of extreme rarity, global demand and sophisticated buyers has permanently reshaped the ceiling of this market. These books are no longer simply nostalgic artifacts — they are tangible pieces of world culture."

Just a few hours after celebrating Sal B's birthday, I got the news that Sal has passed away. An enormous loss for our industry and for all of us who knew and worked with him. Safe journeys, Sal. We'll miss you.
Sal Buscema turns 90 today. There's hardly a Marvel character Sal hasn't left his mark on, from Cap to the Hulk, Avengers to Thor. Working with Sal for two years on Spectacular Spider-Man remains a highlight of my career. And the best part? He's not just a great artist, he's a truly good guy.
