A rare first issue of The Amazing Spider-Man comic book series valued around $30,000 is seen at a press preview for the Big Apple Comic Book, Art and Toy Show June 4, 2004 in New York City.

Before that, the most valuable comic in the world was a copy of 1962’s Amazing Fantasy No. 15, the first appearance of Spider-Man, which sold for $3.6 million in 2021.

A lot of vintage comic books at a Jacksonville auction house had buyers nationwide bidding upward of $12,000 to get their hands on an original copy of Amazing Fantasy #15, the debut of Spider-Man.
