For this new movie it will be interesting to see how they portray Batman as we have come to enjoy the Dark Knight ambiance of a movie. Even though the recent reboot of Superman yet again did not have the same mood to it.

No one really collects issues anymore. The explosion of graphic novels and trade paperbacks have made them worthless. Unless it's a very rare edition - which excludes almost anything from the 80s onwards - don't expect anything for it.
There was a time where if you wanted to read up on the history of, for example, the x-men, you needed to go out and buy a bunch of individual issues, which created demand. Now you can just pick up the key stories via TPB. Also, people don't really collect large things anymore. No one is interested in having boxes and boxes of comic books around.
