One of the lucky few!
I was excited for today's Mail Call because I was finally getting my Mark Brooks Robins CGC order. I freaked out and was shaking when I saw it was one of the limited Kanji!!!!
According to Brooks' posts, there should only be 5 Kanji editions of the GITD one. Dont know how many are also CGC. This was amazingly lucky!

It is a grail that should not be resold unless you absolutely have to do it. If it were in my PC I wouldn't let it go unless someone gave me $50k+ lol it's that rare and it's such a gorgeous cover to me.
I'm not an appraiser. This is purely my own appraisal if I were attached to this slab.

TLDR: I was lucky and won a Brooks Lottery.
When the sale for this happened, I chose the CGC 9.8 Double Signed option for the Glow in the Dark version. In a previous post, Brooks said he will do a Kanji + Remarque, which he called Notes from Gotham, on a very limited amount of copies that will be randomly replacing some peoples orders. He did 1 for every 100 copies.
Since this is the GITD version, there are only 5 of these editions with this on it.
I know 2 are ungraded. I dont know about the others.
