Giant-Size X-Men #1

Marvel // Giant-Size X-Men

Published May 1975

What's Giant-Size X-Men #1 worth in 2024?

A NM/MT 9.8 set a record for the book with a recent sell price of $13,300! As an investment collectible that is still a reasonable price for such a top tier book in the current market. FN 6.0 books will bring in the range of $1,500 against about $350 in 2009. Solid GD 2.0 are still well under $1,000 coming in around $600 versus just $100 in 2009. A solid performer with A LOT of upside in the wake of the news that MCU powerhouse Sony has acquired the rights from lackluster performer Fox Entertainment. The next big move in the value of this issue could be sooner than later and frankly that leaves no time to waste for the educated buyer!

Why is this comic book valuable?

In the 1980’s the X-men changed comics. And in 1975 Giant Sized X-men #1 changed the X-men. The previous team was ok but never the star of the Marvel line-up. It was a Lee/Kirby creation meant to round out the line-up while Marvel’s faithful waited for FF and Spidey to come around again each month. Boarding school students fighting the mundane. With Giant Size #1 we would see that team removed and the “All new all different” team introducing brand new characters Storm, Colossus, Thunderbird, Nightcrwaler as well as relative newcomer Wolverine who had himself only debuted a few months before in Hulk #181.


It wouldn’t be long before this team, although well received, would hit new heights with the addition of master wordsmith, Chris Claremont. Marvel would couple with Claremont up-and-comer John Byrne and the title would never look back.


The popularity of the current X-men books might come and go but this is the ultimate X-men issue for modern X-men fans and as such will be in no danger of losing its luster!
