Stan Lee And Jack Kirby's THE X-MEN #1 Sells For A Record Price At Auction

In 1963, Stan Lee and Jack Kirby introduced the X-Men to the Marvel Universe. That issue has been sold at auction today, giving it the honour of having the second highest price ever paid for a Silver Age comic (behind only Amazing Fantasy #15).



Bleeding Cool reports that a copy of The X-Men #1 has been sold at The Heritage auction for a record breaking $492,937.50. The CGC 9.8 copy of the landmark comic book is the highest graded copy known to be in existence, with only one other listed on the CGC census. This decimated the previous record price that a CGC 9.6 copy went for back in 2011 ($200,000) and the Stan Lee/Jack Kirby comic now holds the honour of being the second highest price paid for a Silver Age comic. However, it's still a long way behind the $1.1 million paid for a copy of Amazing Fantasy #15 CGC 9.6 in March 2011 (as you will hopefully know, that featured the first appearance of Spider-Man).... Also sold at the auction was the original Spider-Man #1 cover art by Todd McFarlane for $358,500 and the original cover art for McFarlane's Amazing Spider Man #328 for $657,250.

DIE X-MEN KOMMEN DEN TAG ZU SPAREN.


This issue is in German, though. Whatever, if I had my money like that I'd get it anyway.

Jim Lee the GOAT

My boys dad has #1-10 x men, #1 spiderman, and #1 superman... Need to kick that door in

I have x-men #1 its just not in amazing condition.

I have those as well. Collector told me they really won't be worth !! due to such a mass production of x-titles in the nineties.

Keeping them boxed up anyway

I have xmen #1 its just not in pristine condition

Stay away from my house [pic]

I have the #1 issue of X-Men.

However, the condition of the comic book does leave something to be desired though.

I have x-men #1 unfortunately its current physical shape is not optimum

This series of X-Men were some the 1st comics I myself began buying. Back when I was younger my uncle left me with a SH*TLOAD of old comics! I have a few of those 1st X-Men issues but not this one. I have all those comics in a safe deposit. The only one Ive actually sold was Silver Surfer #1 to some collector in like 1995. Dude copped for like $1300 if I can remember correctly. I dont even think the !! was worth that much.
I wanna hold onto these for my nephew though. Maybe one day whens hes older he get a nice little fortune from them !!s.
