I found the LITG article -- it's in this week's column:
SPECULATION CORNER
"FX," the series by Wayne Osbourne and John Byrne from IDW, saw its last issue drop out of the Top 300, selling in the low four figures and many issues sit, alone and unloved on shop shelves or 50c back issue bins.
This is an excellent opportunity for speculators to clean up. At some point we are due a John Byrne revival in the next ten years, and this recent work will be so much rarer than his better-selling Big Two work. Also, "FX" is prime for a movie adaptation, someone taking the basic idea and making a film around it.
So this is a long term speculation. Pick up whatever copies of "FX" you can, cheap. Stick them in the basement. And wait. Making a 20x return on your investment is not inconceivable.
