Description
Batman #1 (DC, 1940) CGC VG 4.0 Cream to off-white pages. We can't imagine a world where this classic comic -- the very first issue of the first-ever solo Batman title, which also includes the first appearances of the Joker and the Cat (aka Catwoman) -- loses its status as one of the most sought-after comics of all time! With the Caped Crusader's enduring popularity owing much to his almost-as-famous rogues gallery, some might consider this debut issue the true birth of the global Bat-phenomenon. This particular copy boasts incredible eye appeal, with Batman, Robin, and their logo nicely centered in the CGC holder.Bob Kane and Jerry Robinson provide the classic cover and art, while the story is by Batman co-creator Bill Finger. It is currently ranked #5 on Overstreet's list of Top 100 Golden Age Comics. Overstreet 2023 VG 4.0 value = $146,600. CGC census 5/24: 14 in 4.0, 41 higher.
