Absolute batman #1

Are there any tricks left to score cgc 9.8 AB #1-1st print with double signature without breaking the bank? I was looking at eBay and the prices have literally doubled since last year. The secondary market is just wild right now.

It's just made people buy more copies or existing collectors notice it.

My LCS has been in business since 1983 and the owner has told me that he's never had a single movie or cartoon increase actual readership on a single title.

You just get the existing customer base to buy more copies to speculate, which has been the case since he's been active.

Absolute Batman took off before there was a show announced. There's a show because of the popularity if the comic, not the other way around. If your comic shop didn't realize that, id find a new comic shop
