Despite 300,000 Orders, Absolute Batman #1 Skyrockets On eBay

Absolute Batman #15 is a $4.99 comic book, with 1:25 and 1:50 variant covers, as well as exclusive retailer covers. And despite printing 300,000 copies, it seems that was just not enough. Bleeding Cool has been getting reports of fast sellouts all over the place/ As a result, prices have been skyrocketing on eBay. Copies of the standard cover were selling heavily for $7-$9 this morning, but jumped to $15 this afternoon. Normally, this wouldn't be particularly notable, but the fact that there are 300,000 copies in circulation makes this exceptional. And this goes for the ratio variants as well; there are likely to be more copies of the 1:50 variants in some stores than copies of many other standard comic books.

The 1:50 Jock cover has been selling for $55, with the 1:25 cover at $25. The Godtail retailer exclusive has been selling copies for $50, the Glenn Fabry Third Eye variant for $100, and the Mayhew blue foil variant for $37.

I am sure there will be a second printing of Absolute Batman #15 at some point. After all, all the other issues have had multiple printings. Here's a look at the final cover to Absolute Batman #1 with the newly coloured logo for the 21st of January 2026.
