Post-Crisis Legacy: Emerging from DC’s late 1980s reboot, #24 captures the fresh, reimagined vibe of the era, appealing to fans of that transformative period in comics.

-
High Grades (VF 8.0 - NM 9.4): Fetch $15-$35+, with NM copies trending upward as condition drives value for late 1980s/early 1990s comics.
