Yes, I believe you would be wise to pick them up and wait for their value to grow.

Check with @D-Rog, maybe he can give us good advice on what to do with Absolute books. :grin:

Sell to all the suckers willing to pay your price. Thats my advice.

Don’t hold any.

I’m not sure I’d hold either, but
 I sold a lot of Absolute Bat 1st prints for a lot less than they’re going for now. :laughing:

If you can wait a bit, throw the lot up for $50 with Best Offer and see what happens? Maybe it continues to grow, or you have the flexibility to cash out whenever.

It’s pretty well documented in this forum that everyone here has sold absolute books for profit way below their peak. Probably not the best place to ask for spec advice on absolute books :slightly_smiling_face:

Sell. There’s no catching fire here.

No one could have predicted that the Absolute Batman craze would have lasted 20+ issues. I mean, my buy in is $5 here, so there’s no risk in holding. But, I HAVE to believe the end of the craze is closer than the beginning.

I say hold. I also bought my copies for cover. Once 1st episode of the Animated series airs, that’s when you want to offload (if you want too) lol.

I’m holding my copy of #1A until it’s dollar bin fodder
for spite.

Updated the hunt list.

I also took the extra step in highlighting new entries for those who are mostly interested in more recent hot books.

How many of those New 52 books have held any value? Few and far between is the correct answer. Absolute Universe isn’t any different. No real long term hold values imo. Alternate versions of long established characters rarely maintain that FOMO value. If you’re making money off them, sell them.

:100: to this


Batman #1 New 52 saw highs how high again? Just checked, seems like on average now this is a $30 to $40 book now
 far from it’s peak value.

If you got Absolute Batman #1 sitting around with extra copies, now is the time to sell I say
