DESCRIPTION
ow/white pages
One of the most iconic covers of the Golden Age! 1st app Joker; 1st app Catwoman (Spring 1940); Comic Book Impact rating of 10 (CBI)One of the most important comics of the Golden Age, featuring one of the most iconic covers, Batman #1 is the perfect cornerstone for any new GA collector; a historic comic that only increases in value and popularity year after year, featuring the debut of fan favorites the Joker and the Cat, later dubbed Catwoman.
There have easily been over a hundred titles devoted to the Caped Crusader, more than Superman and Spider-Man combined. Starring in several serials, animated series, TV shows, movies, video games, novelizations, record albums, and virtually every other medium, Batman is omnipresent. Along with the Boy Wonder, the Dynamic Duo is universally recognized, and this issue, Batman #1, is a milestone key as it serves to announce that Batman and Robin are here to stay.
The colors on this book are insane for the grade. The fire engine reds in the logo practically scream off the cover! Batman's extensive and popular media universe keeps him at the forefront of the modern discourse of superheroes. Early Batman issues are increasingly rare in all grades but this 2.5 copy has a surprising amount of aesthetic appeal.
Overstreet Guide 2022 GD+ (2.5) value = $83,750.
