Not sure. One that springs to mind is the Scarlet Spider Venom Variant which seems to be selling pretty well on eBay.

Rarest...not really any rare ones yet. But for expensive I own the Bone coloured omnibus and the complete Full Metal Alchemist set.

At one time or another in my life I have owned these comics. Amazing Fantasy #15 in Fair/Poor condition. Captain America #102 and #105. Spiderman #129. Wolverine #1 (first series). Incredible Hulk #181 and #182. Almost the entire run of Tomb of Dracula. Almost the entire run of Werewolf By Night. The first 20 issues of the original Defenders series. I have at some point or another sold all of these comics. Also had Marvel's Conan the Barbarian #1.

Now the most prized comic I have is the first 12 issues of TOPPS' The X-Files from the 90's .

I consider issues 1-4 of the "Lynch Mob" pretty rare, and I have those.

Not rare and I don't think that expensive but I have the first issue of Spider-man 2099 (First printing, Near mint).

I would say my "rarest" comics are the Starstream science-fiction series from the 1970s. I don't think they are very popular so their value isn't very high. Perhaps $15-20 for each issue.

Starstream No. 1 (1976)

My most valuable comics would have to be Amazing Spider-man 121 and 122. I have a few other Amazing Spider-mans that are older than those two, but I think these two are among the most coveted and sought after in the entire series.

@Sampsman: Those are usually the coolest comics as well as rare.

Don't have one. Does a signed Simonson Thor omnibus count?

#22 Posted by Sampsman (36 posts) - 4 months, 26 days ago - Show Bio

@gravitypress: I agree. I have other science fiction rarities from the 70s, including this classic featuring early work by Frank Miller.

A golden age comic, the first appearance Lex Luthor ever made in comic history.

#26 Posted by Veitha (1841 posts) - 4 months, 25 days ago - Show Bio

Most Expensive: two giant masterworks with the entire Autorithy series (Millar, Ennis). I payed them a lot rofl

Rarest: maybe some old 2099 comics or a Gaiman old comic...

I don't really have any rare or expensive comics, but this one comes to mind:

First appearance of the retconned, Post-Crisis Jason Todd. The origin story where he steals tires off the batmobile!

I also have this one-shot:

The Teen Titans team up with the X-Men against Darkseid, Deathstroke and Dark Pheonix

I found both of these in my cousin's attic. They're both in pretty good condition. Batman is from '87 and the Teen Titans and X-Men crossover is from '82. To be honest I really like these because I don't really have many single issues that aren't from a year or two or ago (New 52 and Marvel NOW!)

I posted this a while ago. I`m actually wrong about that, I guess. My rarest one might be this:

It`s listed on the site.

As for the most expensive, no clue.
