What a coincidence, I just discovered that I had that book in my collection. I had no idea it was special and I also got it from a Library. A bunch of random Batman books from the 90s was donated to the library I worked at and they didn’t want them so I was able to take them home, this was 15-20 years ago.

Mike, you've done it again. That Batman Adventures is definitely a heck of a find, especially for 50 cents. Personally, I would hang on to it, but I could see eventually using it to trade for a bigger book. Nice selection of 90s Batman and Detective books, as well as that Power Man and Iron Fist book. Great pulls all around.

Nice find. I actually own a copy of that The Batman Adventures/Harley Quinn comic book, because at the time I originally bought it because of Batgirl. I haven't really been keeping up with the worth of comic books since Wizard: The Guide to Comics went defunct. I knew the comic was worth something but I didn't know how much. The '90s was such a great decade for comic books, especially indie titles.

Your $300 book had its share of mold on the cover. (I'm assuming it's mold.) Sweet find though. Congrats! Call me crazy but I was more excited by the bookshelves with real wood veneers. Those are hard to come by in my part of the world. I'm sure they're in rough shape but that never bothers me. They can be braced/ shored up and repaired. Nabbing two identical 6-footers would be a treat.

I prefer the Elseworld Batman issues as I was too old to get into Batman Adventures...congrats on the score..

@lunchmoneycomics
@lunchmoneycomics 2 дня назад
@@Ben-qy1kf I actually recorded, and then cut, an explanation of that from the video. The short answer is I’ve bought hundreds of dollars of books from this library over the years, donate books back to them, and pay a fee to get special early access to these sales. They are WAY in the green from what I’ve given them over the years so I think I can take a small win. Also, one the biggest draws for this sale is that people find rare books there so it’s sort of one of their selling points.
