Are Batman Movie Cards 1989 Worth Anything?
Do you remember the original Tim Burton Batman movies? As a Gen-Xer I do and they are still awesome in my opinion. Some people know there was a set of collectible trading cards from the movies. And some of them are actually worth something now on the collectibles market.

3 Main Reasons Comics and Collectibles Rise in Value
- Rarity: If a comic book is rare, meaning there are not many copies available, it can increase in value. This could be due to a limited print run, a special edition, or a rare variant cover. As the supply of the comic book dwindles, collectors who want a copy will have to pay a premium to acquire it, driving up its value.
- Popularity: If a comic book becomes popular due to a movie adaptation, a new comic book series, or a particular storyline, it can increase in value as demand for it rises. For example, when Marvel’s Avengers movies became popular, the value of Avengers comic books increased as more people became interested in the franchise.
- Historical Significance (keys): Some comic books may have historical significance because they introduced a new character or concept, or because they were part of a significant event in the comic book industry. For example, Action Comics #1, which features the first appearance of Superman, is considered a historically significant comic book and is highly valuable as a result.
I’m about three cards short of having the full set of Michael Keaton batman cards from the original movie. Looking to sell as a job lot and wondering how best to achieve this? Not keen on eBay though.
I typically use eBay. Yes the fees suck. But we pay for access to a vast market place and audience. Not really sure how else to do it. I try to factor the fees into what I will accept for a give collectible.
