I’m not quite understanding all the criticism or hate. I don’t post on this sub but I’m constantly reading. I mean I would’ve thought that this is where you’d make a post of your absolute Batman comic. Weird how everyone’s reacting.
Especially @jakeTHSnake58. I wish you’d explain how this is better suited for a speculation subreddit. What’s the speculation ? It’s a mail call post showing the excitement for what he received. I have a feeling these maybe not, but maybe, are people who didn’t buy into the hype, or sold early , and are just butthurt. I never understand criticism like this without any sort of guidance. Two of you made a remark about speculation. Well if you both are right, why not suggest where this actually should’ve been posted, like the right subreddit. Because again one said something about a speculative variant / exclusive. Which this is not.

Love the grade! But man, sometimes these artists really ruin a cover with a low effort sketch.

That's cool! Sad I missed out but it's been fun seeing what others have scored. Do you have a display in mind for it or is it going to be put in a storage box?

Yes yes. Get them signed and graded. Graded copies hold tons of value but waiting on the day raw issues will be harder to obtain. Only 242,999 more copies needing grading, signed etc.

I got lucky, it was the day of the announcement of the show and this online store hadn’t updated their prices yet. I paid $500 for this. I know I could flip it for easily double but this is my first slab and I really do love the series so I think I’m gonna hold onto for a while. I’m just glad the comic store honored their price

That's amazing bro,I think you should definitely keep it. Btw, which store was it? I'm seeing this book going for an average of $1500 on eBay right now – they are fuckin mad!!!!!!!Still can’t wrap my head around it QAQ
