The going worth of individual comic books can range all over the board. Some issues
have been know to bring in monetary value of six figures, while other issues aren't even
worth the price you paid for them. Action Comics #1 (the introduction of Superman) in
mint condition has been quoted at being worth $650,000. A pretty tidy piece of change.
Then Weird Science, issue #13, in near mint condition can command a respectable price
tag of $5,750. There are also multitudes of back issues purchased at a newsstand price of
around 5 bucks, that are now worth even less than that.
So how does one go about determining the actual value of their individual collections?
This is not an easy task or one to be taken lightly. Comic book worth is a highly
perceived value and will vary quite greatly, depending on which opinion you choose to
follow. By all means, if there is a reputable comic book dealer in your local area that you
are comfortable dealing with, get his or her opinion. But in all my research so far, it
seems that "The Overstreet Comic Book Price Guide" is the bible of most active comic
book collectors.
