Condition & Value

Condition Grade

Condition Details

Cover appears crisp and flat with sharp corners, well-preserved inside a protective bag and board. Minor gloss reflection shows minimal handling wear, with no obvious spine stress, color breaks, or creases.

Estimated Market Value

Raw: $15 - $25; Graded (CGC 9.4/9.6): $50 - $80

Recent Sales

Recent online sales for raw copies in similar high grade generally range from $10 to $25 depending on platform and buyer demand.

Grading Recommendation

Given the relatively low cost of the raw book, professional grading may not yield a significant financial return after grading fees, unless part of a larger submission batch.

Notable Features

This is the very first official 'Elseworlds' graphic novel published by DC Comics, establishing the imprint for out-of-continuity alternate reality stories.

Authentication Notes

Standard DC prestige format square-bound graphic novel with glossy cardstock cover, matching expected printing quality, proper logo placement, and correct ISBN/price styling on the back.
