Batman #1 (DC, 1940) CGC GD- 1.8 Cream to off-white pages. It's currently #5 on Overstreet's list of Top 100 Golden Age Comics and challenging #4 (Marvel Comics #1). From Overstreet's 2023 Guide to its 2024 edition, the issue appreciated in value more than any other book on the Top 100 Golden Age Comics list. Batman's first solo issue features the first appearances of the Joker and the Cat (soon to be known as Catwoman). Hugo Strange, Batman's first supervillain, also makes an appearance. Bob Kane and Jerry Robinson rendered the classic cover and interior art for the Bill Finger story. Even in modest grades, complete CGC blue label copies such as this offering are outnumbered by non-blue labels! Overstreet 2024 GD 2.0 value = $86,500. CGC census 5/25: 15 in 1.8, 89 higher.
