Here's my on this topic, nothing will beat the U.S. version when it comes to price-wise, they are the true first prints ! Now these foreign variants that are from other countries have a smaller print run then the U.S. witch makes them very rare to get a hold of. And the condition they come in are no higher then Fine range, if your lucky ! The true value of these foreign comics are in the $5-10 dollar range. There's no value market on these foreign books that I know of But if your a fan of a key cover book like I am, when it comes to the Batman 227 you'll find your self paying Hundreds of dollars on a copy in a VG grade !! I seen the French Batman 227 that's posted here on the boards, sold for little over hundred dollars on e-bay not to long ago ! I think collecting different books like these foreign key comics will be the next big thing !! Seeing all your favorite key cover books from all over the country next to each other is Amazing
