World's Finest Comics #152 (DC, September 1965) is a mid-1960s installment of the long-running Batman/Superman team-up title, produced during the era when Edmond Hamilton scripted many of the series' adventures and Curt Swan, inked by George Klein, provided the clean, classic house style that defined DC's Silver Age superhero line. The issue does not introduce any character, costume, or villain of lasting significance, and it is not associated with a first appearance or a widely anthologized cover image; it represents standard, well-produced output from a stable creative team rather than a landmark comic.

Market data reflects that profile: certified sales cluster in the $18-$26 range through the low-to-mid grades before rising to roughly $65-$100 in the low 9-point tier, a curve consistent with a book that is plentiful in the census (62 Universal copies of 65 total graded) and collected primarily as part of a run rather than chased individually. Demand is steady but unspectacular, driven by Batman and Superman team-up completists and World's Finest run-builders rather than character-first-appearance buyers, and pricing has shown only modest movement across recent averages.

This is a book that trades as a filler-to-mid-tier title within a broader Silver Age DC collection: modest sums in low grade, a workable few dollars more in the mid-grade range typical of reading/display copies, and a real but not dramatic premium at the top of the certified population where supply thins sharply. It suits collectors assembling complete World's Finest or Swan/Klein art runs rather than speculative key-issue investors.
