Given today’s events, it’s time for a bump. Cap 1 is closing the gap . . .

 

 

3.0 ow/w vs. 2.5 cr/ow has me declaring a win for the 2.5 by more than a nose.

Both books are super cool. There is a strong case that CA 1 probably should be the higher valued book given it is the title character very first app and origin and Batman 1 is not. Still, the fact that CA and his rogues gallery are just not as good characters as Batman and his rogues gallery probably tips the scale for now. Batman 1 could even get a big bump off of the Joker movies now CA is out of the MCU.

Thats a better comparison.  Bat's for the win.

Never mind the gap between Cap 1 and Bat 1, what about the gap between Cap 1s?

The multiple of a 9.2 Cap 1 ($750k) over a 3.0 Cap 1 ($156k) is less than 5X?  Wow!!!  Particularly considering that Cap 1s are (along with Bat 1) the most common GA mega-key, so it's not like Cap 1s in low grade are that rare.

Dont disagree, but due to Caps lucky birth into the Timely/Marvel world, he’s got better friends that resonate more with the youngsters. Spider-man, anyone? Heck, even Daredevil and Iron Man too. That alone will maintain some parity for our beleaguered Cap

Glad you sold your Batman 1 when you did going to take a bit before that book gets that price again.

If memory serves me right, I think you have a Cap 1

Hi Harold. Yes my Bat 1 was the same book that sold yesterday in heritage. When I sold it 2 years ago thru CC it went for crazy money, and I feel bad for yesterday’s consignor. 
 

yes I still have my Cap 1. I guess I should have sold it same time as the Bat 1!
