10 Affordable Comic Books To Invest In Now (Before It's Too Late)
7. Harley Quinn #1 Harley Quinn Variant (2013)
Why It's Noteworthy: New Harley book as her popularity was on the rise
FMV at 9.8: $425
When it comes to the story, there's not a lot to say about why Harley Quinn Vol. 2 #1 is noteworthy, other than the simple fact that Harley is the most popular character in DC Comics' library, at least for now.
Quinn's popularity was pretty much instantaneous after she first debuted in Batman: The Animated Series, which was shortly followed by her appearance in the comics. Ever since then, she's gone on to become a fan favorite, and when Margot Robbie made Harley into a live-action character fans loved, her comic book popularity only went up.
Now that there's a Harley Quinn movie coming out — OK, it's Birds of Prey, but let's be real... it's a Harley Quinn movie — her popularity will continue to skyrocket. Even if that movie doesn't do well financially, the fans will still come back for Harley.
There were multiple printings of this book, but the one that's seeing a rise in value is the Adam Hughes variant cover. Other copies sell for around $50 at 9.8, but the Hughes variant is where the money's at, and that's due to his popularity as an artist, and the low print count. If you happen to get one signed, you are holding onto a book worth between $1,000 and $3,000, depending on the grade.
