What's Action Comics #3 worth in 2024?
The value of Action Comics #3 doesn’t exist in Mint condition that we know of. If a CGC NM+ 9.6 copy ever comes up for sale, you might expect a sale price nearing $350,000 to $400,000. The highest graded copy ever sold (unrestored) is a CGC FN/VF 7.0 which last sold for $55,000 back in June 2017. This is a very scarce comic and thus values are harder to determine in any grade. Low grade copies sell for a minimum of $10,000 if they are complete and unrestored. If you have a copy, count yourself lucky, they don’t come up for sale often. If you don’t have a copy and are looking for one, you won’t have the opportunity to be picky. Just make sure it’s complete and unrestored, when one comes up for sale and you can’t go wrong.
Why is this comic book valuable?
Action Comics #3 features the 3rd appearance in comics history of Superman and Lois Lane. It is very scarce and is probably more rare than Action Comics #1. There are only 35 copies on the CGC census and of those, only 15 are unrestored. There are most likely only 50 - 75 copies in the world of this issue, increasing demand whenever a copy does come up for sale.
