@@roywatson7916 it’s been SLAMMED by the market and this video was supposed to be books unaffected by the market. Banes 9.8 is nearly down to $200 so that makes it one of the most coldest Batman books
Great video and Batman always has some safe bets. I would love to see a Daredevil top ten next or start a series based on all the different characters like this.
hey man. been watching your videos for a while and i gotta say---i love your videos. your advice is spot on and i love how you always suggest things that are "underrated" or not "mainstream." and your videos always have lots of content; this video alone has the 10 investment keys + an extra 10 entry level comics which i really appreciate! hope your channel continues to grow. kudos
Love Martian Manhunter and agree, outside of the 1998 Martian Manhunter series by Ostrander, he has not had his day in stories. Tec 225 eludes me to this day, but did manage to snag his first cover appearance book, a little title called Brave and the Bold 28 ;)
Thankfully I have all the wannabe's you showed, I to love Detec #457, It's my thumbnail after all. Whether I will ever get any of the dearer ones you showed is anyone's guess, especially when I used to own 6 of them!
IMO, an entry level that everyone seems to be sleeping on is Batman: Shadow of the Bat #1, first appearance of Victor Zsasz. Yes, I know it isn't Batman or Detective, but it s still a Bat book with a key Bat villain.
Cool Batman list. Would love a Red Hood - but that is a tough one to come by. I think that 52 #11 - 1st full Kate Kane Batwoman is still a good book. Wouldn't that be amazing if Matt Reeves used Bat-Mite!
Great video. When I was actually reading books and not just collecting covers, books in the Batman universe were often my favorites. I think it's because few had super-powers. (Yes, some had exaggerated abilities.) Even now the covers I buy the most are from the Batman universe and usually feature female characters from his world.
Way under the radar and dirt cheap are some of the iconic Breyfogle covers imo. Not great stories…not really super keys but for Batman covers -Norm Breyfogle is my GOAT.
This video is packed with value, thanks man. While I can't swing with the big boy books, I see the "entry level" keys all the time...unfortunately I keep seeing them at auction (primarily facebook) and the prices don't quite align with the condition and the FMV. And being north of the border, once I factor in duty and shipping, it makes buying in more typical places not really worth it. But it's still good info to have in case I ever come across these in person.
You will enjoy this. Came across Legends of the Dark Knight Annual 1991. I usually skip over Legends but that Mignola cover drew me in. It’s a good comic! So many good artists and a Denny O’Neal story, I was pleasantly surprised.
Great video! when i win the mega millions i will load up! batman 155 could have made the list (1st silver age penquin) really liked the entry level books!
I’m gonna say that Batman 189 (1st silver age scarecrow) should be on this list. We have steadily watched this book climb over the years and I believe it’s here to stay!
Yes, love this subject format. Would like to see a series of videos that outline the history of & showcase key comics, of the many popular titles & characters.
Really not much of a Batman fan, watched because I enjoy learning about keys but gotta give it the like for that first apperence of Martain Manhunter, would absolutely love to have that book. Fr I really like when you do the cheap keys, one I don't think I've seen on your lists that I just picked up for a 10 dolla bill was Legends #1 first Amanda Waller and Brimstone
Ugh it always breaks my heart to know as a huge Batman fan that I will never ever ever be able to collect them all. But I love this list! The only one I own from this video is the first Tim Drake so I have a ways to go! So many Batman books!
The first Tim Drake was the first Batman comic I bought randomly after the hype of the first Batman movie. Couldn't believe that one had value years later when I looked it up
Always thought that Ventriloquist first appearance is underrated. Also Tim Drake’s first appearance. Why is that a $20 book and Damian Wayne’s is a $50 book? I don’t get it.
First Matrian Manhunter app is Tec 225 the story finishes in 226 and his backup stories end on 327 and 226 has a green cover that shows all the defects
Just read Batman Annual 15 from 1991...great story...batman kills the joker and starts laughing manically...I'm pretty sure its the first batman who laughs. Anyone else read it?
The best riddler issues also happen to coincide with the best riddler covers. Look up top 10 riddler covers to find! Not on there, but you definitely want to read “War of jokes and riddles” And “dark knight dark city”
