Epic Demand for Absolute Batman #15

Absolute Batman #15 has created a buzz in the comic book world, witnessing massive demand that has led to sellouts, despite a hefty print run of 300,000 copies. What typically might not raise eyebrows is generating significant excitement among collectors and fans alike.

Rising Prices on eBay

Initial sales of the standard cover began at around $7-$9, but prices have quickly surged to $15 as scarcity heightened. This trend extends to the variant covers, with the 1:50 Jock variant fetching $55, while other retailer exclusive covers are being sold for even more:

  • Godtail retailer exclusive: $50
  • Glenn Fabry Third Eye variant: $100
  • Mayhew blue foil variant: $37

Future Printings Likely

Considering the current sellout scenario, it’s anticipated that a second printing of Absolute Batman #15 is inevitable. Similar patterns have been observed with earlier issues.

Creative Team

The comic features a collaboration between Scott Snyder and acclaimed artist Jock, promising an engaging narrative that fans are eager to delve into, centered around iconic characters such as Bruce Wayne and the Joker.

Upcoming Releases

The next printing of the original Absolute Batman #1 is also set to attract attention, with a new cover being launched on January 21, 2026.

For fans and collectors, the excitement surrounding Absolute Batman #15 serves as a reminder of the dynamic and ever-changing comic book market.
