Which version do you have?

If you simply want to own Batman #20, the cheapest option is the $3 Sale version. The higher-priced items, like the $930 Standard or $14 Capullo Sketch, offer significant premiums in condition, unique artwork, or scarcity. Casual collectors should stick to the $5 or lower options, while serious investors should target the Standard or Newsstand versions for better long-term value.
