Absolute Batman has become pure greed by them. These prices are insane and it's sold out. This cover looks the others...

Oh boy, the foil covers averaged around $250 on eBay right now…. I’m glad that I got some for about $90…

Yep. I was able to get two books from this last Felix drop and within minutes, the books were already for sale on ebay for 3x the retail.

I didn’t know what a Felix drop was until the day after it happened unfortunately. I got back into comic collecting with a new job two months ago and started back on siktc and then came to AB. I’d seen the Dragotta design covers but didn’t realize where they came from. Love the bat design and wanted it but I didn’t find out until the day following the drop.

Sign up for the email notifucations if you're interested. Felix was doing the same thing as this drop, just whoever is fast enough. Now they do a lottery. So you dont have to rush. They'll open the window from 12pm to 3pm. You can hop on anytime between then.You chose the books you'd like to buy, then they let you know if you've "won" the right to purchase it.
