Most Valuable DC Comics Variant Covers
Batman #608 Retailer Appreciation Variant (2002)
Lowest price $650
Average price $1,000
Recent 9.8 Sale $5,735
Record price $10,000
This is one of the more popular retailer incentive variant cover issues. The record sale of $10K is an outlier. It occurred in 2025. But still, there is strong historical support around the $5K level.
Wonder Woman #28
G. J. Jones Steampunk variant
Lowest price $500
Average price $800
Recent 9.8 Sale $2,300
Record price $2,675
There are just 108 copies in the census. Jones rarely signs, so if you can get a SS copy then it's worth holding onto. The recent sale is close to the record.
Supergirl and the Legion of Super-Heroes #23 Variant Cover by Adam Hughes (2006)
Lowest price $200
Average price $450
Recent 9.8 Sale $1,750
Record price $1,980
Although this is far from the rarest of the variant comics out there, its strong sales prices, even in a depressed market, show the enduring appeal of Adam Hughes covers.
Dell'Otto Superman/Batman #7
French Variant Edition
Lowest price $75
Average price $200
Recent 9.8 Sale $1,850
Record price $1,850
This cover reminds me of the Heath Ledger Joker against the Dark Knight Rises Batman.
Red Hood: Lost Days #1
Mattina variant
Lowest price $80
Average price $140
Recent 9.8 Sale $400
Record price $1,800
You are probably aware that Red Hood is The Joker. This Mattina variant has fallen far from its record sale, but is still sought after by collectors.
Teen Titans #75 Variant Cover Adam Hughes (2009)
Lowest price $200
Average price $350
Recent 9.8 Sale $1,400
Record price $1,700
There is probably a legal minimum coverage for supervillain costumes, but this cover must flirt with the margin!
Harley Quinn #1
Bulletproof Comics Pink Edition by Dell'Otto
Lowest price $120
Average price $200
Recent 9.8 Sale $77
Record price $1,500
The biggest faller on the variant comics list, down to just $77 from a high of $1,500. OUCH!
Batman #1 Capullo Sketch Variant
Lowest price $80
Average price $200
Recent 9.8 Sale $450
Record price $1,375
It's hard to believe that the New 52 happened 15 years ago. This book's heyday has come and gone, but it is still a cool and desirable variant comic.
Harley Quinn #1 Variant Cover by Adam Hughes (2014)
Lowest price $100
Average price $200
Recent 9.8 Sale $695
Record price $1,350
A famous variant comic from the time when Harley was a movie favourite. Has fallen in value since.
Wonder Woman #38
Finch Variant
Lowest price $150
Average price $300
Recent 9.8 Sale $900
Record price $1,000
David Finch's sexy variant cover makes this Wonder Woman comic a must-own for collectors.
Gotham City Sirens #1 (2009)
Catwoman variant cover
Lowest price $100
Average price $150
Recent 9.8 Sale $325
Record price $800
Another post-pandemic crash victim. Ouch if you bought at the top of the market!
Batman #655 (2006)
Kubert Variant Cover
Lowest price $50
Average price $80
Recent 9.8 Sale $270
Record price $750
One of the most common variants, with well over 1,000 copies in the census.
Wonder Woman #600 1:25 Variant Cover (2010)
Lowest price $50
Average price $100
Recent 9.8 Sale $245
Record price $500
There are two versions of this homage to Sensation Comics #1. This is the colour version.
The sketch version is a 1:75 variant, but surprisingly they sell for similar amounts.
Wonder Woman #600 Sketch Cover (2010) by Adam Hughes
Lowest price $100
Average price $180
Recent 9.8 Sale $205
Record price $455
This 1:75 variant is far scarcer than the colour version. Yet the sale prices are almost identical. A missed opportunity?
There are just 78 in the CGC census versus 190 of the colour edition.
Adventure Comics #515
Bermejo Variant
Lowest price $30
Average price $80
Recent 9.8 Sale $260
Record price $900
Another variant cover which has fallen hard since the pandemic bubble burst.
A recent 9.6 sale is actually higher, at $300, so a sale of $450 might be achievable for 9.8.
Superman/Batman #4
Turner German Variant
Lowest price $200
Average price $400
Record price $2,250
With just 42 copies in the CGC census, this is a genuinely rare Turner variant.
No 9.8 sale has been recorded since 2019. A recent 9.6 of $866 supports the prices.
