Description

Batman #1 (DC, 1940) CGC FN/VF 7.0 Off-white to white pages. Any time we get an unrestored copy of the issue that's currently ranked #5 on Overstreet's Top 100 Golden Age Comics list, it's a big deal. Landing a copy in this high grade, however, is truly significant, as it's only happened a handful of times in our more than 20 year auction history! The issue presents the first-ever appearances of the Joker and the Cat (aka Catwoman) and is just the fourth appearance of Robin the Boy Wonder as well! If you want to bring this copy home to your Bat-Cave, we recommend preparing for a heroic round of bidding, as nearly every time we offer a copy of this premier issue, it sets a new record for that grade! Batman co-creator Bob Kane and Golden Age stalwart Jerry Robinson provided the iconic cover and interior art for the important issue. Overstreet 2023 FN 6.0 value = $219,900; VF 8.0 value = $498,000. CGC census 1/24: 3 in 7.0, 15 higher.
