GOTHAM ACADEMY: FIRST YEAR #1 (OF 6) CVR C SWEENEY BOO CARD STOCK VAR (DC Comics 2025)Dive into the eerie elegance of academia gone awry with GOTHAM ACADEMY: FIRST YEAR #1, the enthralling prequel miniseries from DC Comics by writer Brenden Fletcher, co-writer Becky Cloonan, and artist Karl Kerschl—unveiling October 1, 2025! Scarred by her villainous mother's rampage and Batman's heavy-handed "salvation," freshman Olive Silverlock is exiled to Gotham's ivy-choked elite school by Bruce Wayne and Commissioner Gordon, navigating cliquey snobs, tentative crushes, map-mania fixations, and the academy's spectral undercurrents—plus a Bat-foe's creeping menace. This YA tour de force marries Buffy-flavored teen angst with Batman's gothic grit, unfurling raw vulnerability and riddle-wrapped revelations that resurrect the beloved series' spellbinding spirit.Cover Details: Sweeney Boo's Cover C card stock variant conjures witchy whimsy with her hallmark soft, emotive lines—Olive and her soon-to-be crew huddle in a candlelit library nook, surrounded by floating grimoires, spectral bats, and arcane doodles, all in Boo's signature pastel goth palette of muted purples and glowing golds. This textured talisman, channeling her I Drag My Brain intimacy, is a slabbable spellbinder, its personal, haunting vibe a collector's elixir for Boo believers and YA horror hounds.Key Appearances: Olive Silverlock (wounded lead), Kyle Mizoguchi (sweetheart spark), Lucy Hunt (spunky sidekick), Colton Rivera (suave supporter), Pomeline (puzzling peer), alongside Alfred Pennyworth, Headmaster Hammer, Batman (flawed fixer), and Calamity flashbacks (Olive's mom). Hints at Scarecrow's scholastic sins; weaves into Batman canon, Gotham Knights TV vibes, and DC YA tapestries like Lumberjanes crossovers.Current Fair Market Value (FMV): Raw copies command $15–$22 on eBay sales six weeks post-release (from $5.99 MSRP), while early CGC 9.8 slabs hit $110–$140—elevated by Boo's cult artist aura, 2014 nostalgia revival, and SDCC 2025 sketchbook reveals.Value Projections: Raw FMV forecast for 50–70% leap to $23–$37, CGC 9.8 to $170–$240 by mid-2026, kindled by NYCC spotlights, HBO Max animation murmurs, and the August 2026 trade paperback. With the comic market's 7.5% yearly boom to $26.75 billion by 2032, Bat-YA expansions like Gotham Knights S3 could quintuple fetches.Why Invest Now?
