Gotham Goodies: Batman Comics Mystery Box Unveiled (Part 2)

I kinda sorta mixed up my Batman and DC mystery boxes. So while filming this I had to put issues back that weren’t from the Batman world and pull again. What shoulda been a thirty second video ended up being 5 minutes that needed to be edited way down. In the end it worked out and I was able to create a new Reel and TikTok(rip soon?) 

Below are the issues in this weeks What’s it Worth?

(Reminder, this mystery box was picked up for $45 for 50 comics, so roughly .90 per issue.)

Underworld Unleashed: Batman - Devil’s Asylum #1

Underworld Unleashed: Batman - Devil’s Asylum #1 / eBay $6.54 sold

• Cover Date 1995

• features an appearance of my favorite femme fatale, Poison Ivy. 

• Since this is an older issue, I might re-bag this one and take a more in depth look at the artwork. 

Love this cover of Batman and Robin issue #11

Batman and Robin #11 / Comic Geeks $3 value

• Cover Date 2012

Always love a duo cover shot, this is Batman and Robin issue #17

• Batman and Robin have to protect Gotham as they get ready for the 300th anniversary of the city’s founding

This interpretation of Batman’s mask is very interesting, not sure how I feel about it.

Detective Comics #667 / Comic Geeks $3 value $47 graded est value

That last one was definitely from the DC mystery box but I kept it in there because of the cover. Joker’s face looks so freakin’ sinister and scary in it. Overall not a bad result from the value of some of these. All of this information will come in handy as I expand into selling more comics on the Coffee & Comics online store. At the moment I’m going to be adding some here and there. To start it will be a Batman issue, but which one? Thanks for tagging along, stay tuned for another mystery pull and What’s it worth?!

If you’re interested in purchasing any of these issues, please leave a comment or contact me via my website.
