Coming to community for advice. If you had the opportunity to
purchase a Batman Adventure 12 CGC 9.6 ($900) Vs Batman Beyond 1 CGC 9.6 ($720) or pass.
Which one has more potential or leg? The reason why I’m asking here, because I notice that recently that anything that has to do with Batman Adventure and Batman Beyond, price has been through the roof.
P.S. if anyone know the GPA for these 2, I would really appreciate it.
Both pretty cool books, so neither are likely to be losers. Harley is very well known in broader society (non-geeksville) so I would personally see there being a lot of staying power. Batman Beyond is a little more of a gamble, but if pushed I would go for BA#12. Depends a bit on your risk tolerance…
If you’re thinking long term, Harley is always going to have more media presence, especially has more movies are made and she’s recast. If you’re talking which one is due for the next big increase, I’d say Batman beyond because as someone else pointed out, he’s definitely going to show up in movies, and when he does, the gains are going to spike big time.
Had a Batman Adventures 12, and it was satisfying to have found one in the wild. Spine was cut, so as soon as I had a chance, traded for Walking Dead 19, first Michonne. Now just saw a homage BA 12 that looks really nice. Purple, I guess would be the lower print,not sure though. Had a link to the Diamond runs, on my old laptop that died. Haven’t seen many posts on here about Warren Louw. He has the Chibi art thing down, which is what the younger crowd likes. And I’m old, and like it.
I’m trying to catching up on these. Variants burned out my go too comic mentor. He just moved on to Magic cards, so I have nobody to ask for advice from. I’ve done terribly on the Harley’s as far as speccing.I like the comic book character. Movie Harley was disappointing to me. My opinion, and you know opinions like blanks…
I’d go BA12 personally, Harley will ALWAYS be around. Batman beyond could fizzle out, but Harley is a guaranteed mainstay for many generations to come.
If the geniuses at DC had cast a better Harley, and made it less silly, BA12 would have gone out of sight. Would have liked darker Harley. She’s deranged. Margot was Harlequin lite. Dark like Phoenix Joker was way to go.
