Collectors spend money on items increasingly unusual for many people, including comic books from past decades (just to have the "exclusive" power over a specific work). But how much would they be willing to pay? This post will give you an exact (and detailed) idea about it. The list below was compiled with information from the pop culture website [Comic Book Resources](https://www.cbr.com/the-10-most-expensive-comic-books-ever-sold/) and the financial advisory page [Love Money](https://www.lovemoney.com/gallerylist/64555/the-20-most-valuable-comic-books-ever-sold). The values ​​take into account the price history that for decades was part of the printed catalog of **Wizard** magazine, which is the the great reference in this area until the end and beginning of digital monitoring. It is worth mentioning that each title was rigorously analyzed by the Certificate Guarantee Company (CGC) and, only after this certification process (which involves rarity and conservation status, among other details), an amount is stipulated for sale. So, entering this list requires time and a lot of dedication and care on the part of all collectors. Welcome, to the (almost) millionaire world of comics books. Here is the TOP 10: 10. **TALES OF SUSPENSE** (#39) ![V6pyMQKy-hq10.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/wiseagent/V6pyMQKy-hq10.png) © **Marvel Comics** Company: Marvel Comics Year: 1959 Price: $375.000,00 09. **FLASH COMICS** (#01) ![ONhiJ1SP-hq09.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/wiseagent/ONhiJ1SP-hq09.png) © **DC Comics** Company: DC Comics Year: 140 Price: $460.000,00 08. **X-MEN** (#01) ![23hMWbAk-hq08.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/wiseagent/23hMWbAk-hq08.png) © **Marvel Comics** Company: Marvel Comics Year: 1963 Price: $492.937,50 07. **BATMAN** (#01) ![kLolNmHv-hq07.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/wiseagent/kLolNmHv-hq07.png) © **DC Comics** Company: DC Comics Year: 1940 Price: $567.625,00 06. **ALL-STAR COMICS** (#08) (https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/wiseagent/5Se3DwwV-hq06.png © **DC Comics** Company: DC Comics Year: 1940 Price: $936.223,00 05. **DETECTIVE COMICS** (#27) ![XriVj5wB-hq05.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/wiseagent/XriVj5wB-hq05.png) © **DC Comics** Company: DC Comimics Year: 1939 Price: $1.075.000,00 04. **AMAZING FANTASY** (#15) ![uNJ7TRWt-hq04.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/wiseagent/uNJ7TRWt-hq04.png) © **DC Comics** Company: Marvel Comics Year: 1962 Price: $1.100.000,00 03. **NEW TEEN TITANS** (#06) ![khruo9jM-hq03.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/wiseagent/khruo9jM-hq03.png) © **DC Comics & Marvel Comics Company: DC Comics & Marvel Comics Year: 1981 Price: $1.200.000,00 02. **ACTION COMICS** (#01) ![m9Jsgb8D-hq01.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/wiseagent/m9Jsgb8D-hq01.png) © **DC Comics** Company: DC Comics Year: 1938 Price: $1.500.000,00 01. **ACTION COMICS** (#01) **P.S.**: *In this specific case, it is basically the same edition, but with a score of 9.0 from the CGC, while the previous one reached 8.5, due to some minimal peculiarities, such as folding marks or minor wear. These are minimal details, but for many fans and collectibles they make all the difference*. Company: DC Comics Year: 1938 Price: $3.200.000,00 As all of you could see in the list above, in addition to the astronomical values ​​related to each sale, only the companies **DC Comics** and **Marvel Comics** are part of this millionaire list and even today, they continue to dominate the world of comic books around the world. This is really a hegemony that is difficult to be broken by any other company in the market. You, being a big fan of comic books... Would you pay such a high price to have an exclusive edition of your favorite franchise?
