Today sees Heritage Auction lists, individually, all twelve issues of Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons' Watchmen, the comic book that changes the medium. Once seen as the holy of holies. And for a comic that I picked up in the bargain bins in the early nineties, every issue selling for above its cover price – and guide value. With issue 1 currently entertaining bids of up to $630. These will all sell today… how high will they go? which other issues will rise to the top? Place your bets – or, indeed, place your bids!
