Overstreet Announces First 2027 Cover, Second Week of Early Bird
Ghost Machine’s Geiger will be featured on the cover of The Overstreet Comic Book Price Guide #56 when the Guide returns to a summer release with its scheduled Wednesday, July 21, 2027, on-sale date.
Published through Image Comics, Geiger was created by writer Geoff Johns and artist Gary Frank. It debuted in 2021. The post-apocalyptic series follows Tariq Geiger, a family man transformed into a radioactive, nearly indestructible figure in the aftermath of a nuclear war.
“Visually striking, and impeccably illustrated, Gary Frank’s take on Geiger was an easy choice for one of our covers for 2027. Brad Anderson’s amazing colors elevate the line art the same way they do in issue after issue of the series,” Gemstone’s Editor-Digital Amanda Sheriff said. “We’re still tweaking the logo and trade dress, but we were anxious to share the cover image with our readers, so here’s your first look.”
Announcements about additional covers will follow, Sheriff said.

Why Advertise?
Some things definitely have stood the test of time, including the Guide! Since 1970, it has been the Bible of serious comic book collectors and dealers alike. Along the way, we have seen the top prices paid for comics go from hundreds of dollars to millions. During that time comic collecting has gone from a quiet hobby to one with huge pop culture impact.
Remember: The Guide isn’t just used once. Its readers refer to it over and over throughout the year, meaning your ad is seen over and over again!
Additional Info
As with previous years, all full-page advertisers receive a complimentary Directory Listing and a copy of the Guide as well. The Overstreet Comic Book Price Guide #56 is scheduled to go on sale Wednesday, July 21, 2027.
