white_rushin Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 At least take off the Half Price Books $1 sticker http://www.ebay.com/itm/Batman-Adventures-12-1st-and-2nd-app-Harley-Quinn-Annual-lot-set-4-High-Grade-/131401247908?pt=US_Comic_Books&hash=item1e981feca4 I actually kind of like that idea. Leave the sticker on and make all the bidders feel ashamed for how much they spend on it lmfao Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I am in the minority. I also own ZERO copies, so I think my opinion is unbiased, Take it for what you will. I have no dogs in this fight,. I hope it crashes, honestly, so I can buy one at a price i'm comfortable with. I just don't see it happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HallsDeeep Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 So here's the story. I finally retrieved my comic book collection from my childhood. Being the odd child I was, I'd normally get my comics, read them carefully and immediately put them in a mylar bag with a cardboard back, seal it up with a small piece of tape and put it away for good. The cardboard box it was stored in hasn't been opened in 20 years. Well, as I started looking through my collection of mostly 1990's comics tonight I came across Batman Adventures #12. Honestly, I'm not even sure if I read this one, because it had girls in it. At that time, girls still had cooties. However, it appears this can be semi-valuable. So my question is. Is it worth it to get this thing graded and sealed? To my eye the copy looks perfect. If so, where would I take it and what would the average cost be? I'd appreciate any help you all could offer.

Chris Same exact thing happen to me last year around March or April as i gotten back into this hobby as well. went through 5 or so short boxes of my comics all were 90s, had a a few sneaker boxes filled of comics as well. as i was finishing bagging and boarding tons of loose comics i had, i stumbled upon this BA#12 and i was literally about to toss it in the garbage and just forget about it. Let me tell you something... CONGRATS !!! keep that comic and pay to have CGC grade it. thats what i did with mine. i thought it would have been a better grade but it turned out to be a 6.5. whatever.... I'm happy to have a issue that is now a KEY issue of Batman and his characters. even if you just get rid of it you can sell a raw copy from $100-150. if you grade it and its mint you can make some good cash off of it. people are trying to sell these in the $1,000 range and even higher nowadays, and the crazy part about it some people are actually getting those amounts. good luck and keep us updated about yours Also when that comic came out in 92-93 i didn't think women had cooties. i did know they had back then that they were all pain in the asses... and thats is true of course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JTLarsen Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Also when that comic came out in 92-93 i didn't think women had cooties. i did know they had back then that they were all pain in the asses... and thats is true of course Let's not reinforce stereotypes about how comics fans stereotype women, please. I know you're kidding. I know you mean no harm. Just please go the next step and imagine a woman reading this who's been hit by someone who called her a pain in the . They're out there and more of them are in our community than ever. These jokes might be a lot funnier if we didn't live in a world where men use exactly that kind of thinking, for real, to justify violence against women. And there is a lot of violence against women. Please no lectures on having a sense of humor, folks. I do. I've literally worked for Comedy Central. I just don't find these jokes funny and the upside of resisting them is we don't perpetuate this thinking OR the stereotypes about comic fans and women. All I'm asking is that we not say here what we wouldn't say to a woman's face. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
