I know how you feel. And they're not exactly cheap, are they?

Joker1237
I bought Batman vol 1, With the first Bat story.

Than being the Joker fan I am, I bought the Joker's greatness storys ever told. With the Joker's first story(It was great, if you can read it, I loved that story)

And the Laughing Fish some were in the end.

In the middle of the books, were some of the WORSE storys I ever read lol. For some reason, Batman does not fit in the classic 60s era, I guess.

And when Batman and Supes first team up, I read it, and sure it has some thing in comic history of the "First Team" of Bats and Supes.

The story suck, Joker and Lex "Turn Good" and they have robots, and doing test on these robots, and making Supes and Bats look like fools.

Bad writting.

The Bat12
I have Batman vol. 1 (it only cost $20.00) but have you seen vol. 2, 3, and 4! $100.00!

Joker1237
do they cost 100 each?

or as one?

Gregory
Most archive editions cost about $33.00 each, with some going higher (Batman 1 is the only one I know of that goes lower).

The Bat12
Batman 2 is like $33. But 4 is $100!

Joker1237
Ok, I am buying Flattop the whole story(Dick Tracy, Sunday comics in color) in book form for 80$

So I think I can understand why some of these books are 100$
