The complete set of all 52 DC 3d Cover issues for Villains Month in September has jumped from $145 – less than $3 each, to $369, or over $7 an issue.

Some are going for more, of course.

Comics that have actually sold in advance on eBay for $20 a pop include Batman #23.1 Joker, Detective Comics #23.2 Harley Quinn, Action Comics #23.1 Cyborg Superman, Batman #23.4 Bane, Superman #23.4 Parasite, while others like Batman #23.2 Riddler have sold for $15.

Even though there will be many tens of thousands of copies available.

Expect lines outside stores…
