Hi,

I have a Batman 25 (New 52) black cover that has been double stamped and am wondering if this would qualify to be added to the price guide.

A one-off mis-marking or mis-printing error is not a variant, not a recall, not a new listing at CPG IMHO.
It is what it is - a print mistake on one issue. See 1970's comics - it happened all the time that print was not square on the page and other printing error. "Double vision" printing was not uncommon.
If the error is significant, it kills the value the comic does have - collectors want it pristine. Personally - I would not want the copy you have - I want a nice one.

Thank you KDS. That is what thought. I did email the people at the link you provided but could not include pictures. I will get those to them once they let me know how to send them over.
