The Crisis on Infinite Earths #1 in context
Why collectors care
The opening issue of Crisis on Infinite Earths, cover-dated April 1985, the twelve-issue event that collapsed DC's multiverse into a single continuity and reset the entire line. It is the template every publisher-wide crossover since has followed.
How to identify it
Crisis on Infinite Earths #1, April 1985, by Marv Wolfman and George Perez. Confirm the 1985 first printing; the series has been collected and reissued many times.
Common mistakes
Buying a collected edition or later printing as an original. This is also a story key rather than a first appearance, so price it accordingly.
Grade considerations
A mid-80s book with strong high-grade survival, so value concentrates at CGC 9.8. Centering and spine ticks are the usual limiters.

Recorded sales by grade · how this summary is built+
Newest recorded sale: 2026-09-17. This summary describes stored history.
Inclusion
All 5 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. For this item, 1 of 5 sales was set aside on this rule.
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.
| Grade | Sales | Included | Set aside |
|---|---|---|---|
| CGC 9 | 5 | 4 | 1 |
