Absolute Batman #3, “The Zoo, Part Three,” sees Batman and a reimagined Alfred Pennyworth cement their alliance while pursued by the Party Animals and GCPD. The issue reveals Roman Sionis as Black Mask, a mercenary with vast resources, and uncovers a dark secret that shakes Bruce to his core, as noted on DC’s official site. Critically acclaimed, with a 9.5/10 rating on Reddit and part of the 2024 Eisner-nominated “Best New Series,” its rapid sellouts (up to 7th printing) highlight its demand.
The Absolute Batman #3 Becky Cloonan Card Stock Variant is valued at $12–$18 in NM- to NM/M (9.2–9.8) condition on eBay, with prices reaching $15–$20 for its limited card stock run, as seen on retailers like Golden Apple Comics and AshAveComics. Cloonan’s manga-influenced art, lauded for DEMO and Batman, boosts its appeal, especially for CGC-graded copies with acrylic backers.
This issue’s value is set to climb, driven by the Absolute Universe’s popularity and DC’s 2025 initiatives. Cloonan’s variants, known for their collectible appeal, follow trends of Absolute Batman #1’s variants, now at $15–$25. Events like Fan Expo Cleveland 2025 and DC’s “Summer of Superman” campaign may amplify interest, potentially increasing values by 20–30% within 12–18 months, with CGC-graded copies hitting $25–$40. The release of Absolute Green Lantern (March 2025) and the Absolute Batman #1-7 hardcover collection further bolster its long-term potential.
Don’t miss this pivotal issue in DC’s transformative Absolute Universe. With its intense narrative, key plot developments, and Becky Cloonan’s iconic variant cover, Absolute Batman #3 is a cornerstone for collectors.
