The Avengers #1 in context

Why collectors care

Avengers #1 (1963) is the first appearance of Earth's Mightiest Heroes, assembling Thor, Iron Man, Hulk, Ant-Man, and Wasp. It is a top-tier Silver Age Marvel team key with demand tied to the franchise.

How to identify it

A 1963 first printing at 12 cents, not the facsimile or reprints. Confirm the Silver Age indicia.

Common mistakes

The facsimile edition is routinely conflated with the original. Restoration appears on higher-grade copies.

Grade considerations

High-grade copies are scarce and command steep premiums. Spine stress and corner wear are the common defects that cap grades.

Recorded sales by grade

Recorded sales by grade · how this summary is built+

Newest recorded sale: 2026-09-21. This summary describes stored history.

Inclusion

All 2 recorded eBay sold (completed) listings in this historical sample, grouped by grader and grade. Asking prices and active listings are never counted.

Outlier handling

Within any grade that has four or more sales, a price below one-third of, or above three times, the within-grade median is set aside before the median is taken. No sales were set aside on this rule for this item.

A comic sale that sold for under a third of the median of this issue's lower-grade sales is also set aside as a probable reprint, facsimile, later printing or restored copy, since a higher grade of the same book should not sell for less. No sales were set aside on this rule for this item.

This issue also has a documented sale of a real copy: a CGC 1.0 copy sold for $2,100 at ComicConnect on Dec 11, 2025 (source). A sale at that grade or higher for under 10% of that price is set aside as a probable reprint or facsimile. For this item, 0 of 2 sales were set aside on this rule.
