Don't Pay $15 For Batman #94

Published Wed, 19 Feb 2020 15:30:05 -0600

As everyone realises that The Joker's new girlfriend Punchline is hardly in Batman #89, and speculator attention shifts to Hell Arisen #3 (currently having sold copies on eBay for $40 each), her first cover appearance will be on Batman #94, out in May. And some people have been happy to pay $15 plus shipping for copies – one enterprising store managed to sell twenty-one copies at that price.

Except, here's the thing. Final Order Cut-Off is not for weeks. All stores will be able to get as many copies of that cardstock cover as they like for the usual store discount off the cover price of $4.99. All this means is that the store in question has just increased their profits fivefold.

Batman #89 and Hell Arisen #3 have risen in value because the news about Punchline came after FOC for both books and retailers couldn't increase their numbers sufficiently. This is not the case with Batman #94. Get a comic store to order it for you now, you'll get it at cover price.

As for those twenty-one people, sorry I couldn't get to you in time…
