The item you're asking about, Detective Comics #12, has two distinct editions in the results:

1. Detective Comics #12 (1938) — This is a highly valuable vintage comic book with a used resale value of $1,320 [1]. 2. Detective Comics #12 (2012) — A modern reissue with a much lower used value of $3.12 [2].

If you own a copy of Detective Comics #12, its value depends on the year of publication. Vintage comics from 1938 are rare and valuable, while modern reissues are not. Check the cover date and condition to determine which one you have. If it's the 1938 version, it's a significant collectible — look for grading, originality, and preservation to maximize its value. For the 2012 version, it's worth only a few dollars.
