Justice League of America comics have been around since the dawn of the 1960s. But the Justice League heroes were all favorites of the DC Comics stable long before that.
At last, the Justice League movie has driven early and key appearances to record levels. Check out the prices below, and get in touch if you have JLA comics to value.
Brave and the Bold #28
First appearance of the Justice League of America

Minimum Value:
$300
Have Yours Appraised | Click to Check Values
Early into the Silver Age, 18 months before Fantastic Four #1 launched the Marvel Age of Comics, Brave and the Bold #28 saw the first appearance of the JLA.
This is a very desirable comic book to find. As long as it's complete, this comic is worth at least $300. See prices now.
Founding Justice League members were Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Martian Manhunter, Green Lantern and Flash.
It's easy to see why this super-team would have been popular with comic book fans -- something for everybody there!
The comic also saw the first appearance of Snapper Carr.
Brave and the Bold #29
Second appearance of the Justice League of America
Record Sale:
$38,240
Minimum Value:
$50

Brave and the Bold #29: second appearance of the Justice League of America. Click here to find current market prices!
The following month, Brave and the Bold #29 followed up the successful debut. Sci-fi was pretty popular at the time, so the robot cover would have pressed the right buttons.
Second appearances are not as hot property as firsts, but still, this comic book has decent value. (Click to see.)
Justice League of America comic book collectors want this to be at least very good condition before adding it to their collection. Lower-grade copies are definitely sluggish movers.
Brave and the Bold #30
Third appearance of the JLA
Record Sale:
$35,500
Minimum Value:
$90
Have Yours Appraised | Click to Check Values
The third and final (for now) appearance of the JLA in Brave and the Bold #30 saw them fight Amazo.
You'll need to find this comic in solid mid-grade (around 5.0 to 7.0) to have something worth hundreds of a dollars, but a complete copy in poor shape is worth about $50.
Justice League of America #1
Official launch of the super-team in October, 1960
Record Sale:
$215,100
Minimum Value:
$180

A few months after the successful tryout in Brave and the Bold, the series got off to its official launch with Justice League of America #1.
If you've found a copy of this desirable comic, then you're in luck. Well done!

JLA #2 continues the story from issue #1.
It's also got decent value, though nowhere near as exciting a find as #1. Unlike some Silver Age comic books, though, it's worth something, even in badly beaten-up shape.
If you'd like us to assess the value of your JLA #2, then submit it for a free appraisal here. We'll give you a value and make you a Dollar offer if you wish to sell.
JLA #3 is very hard to find in higher grades, because the black cover shows any imperfections on the surface.
There are only six copies known at 9.0 or higher (three are graded 9.4 by CGC).
The good news is, it has some value even in very good to fine shape.

Mystery in Space #75
Record Sale: $4,560
Minimum Value: $20

Here's a surprising switch of gears away from the JLA comic books.
Mystery in Space #75 is the story sequel to JLA #3. Technically it belongs in the series before issue #4 (see below).
There are many more high grade copies of this comic than JLA #3. It's a decent find, but far less valuable than JLA #4.

Here are some crucially important early issues in the Justice League history.
JLA #4: Green Arrow joins the super-team
This is an important milestone for the Justice League of America comic book.

JLA #5
First Dr. Destiny
Record Sale: $7,770
Minimum Value: $40
Justice League of America #7
Record Sale: $5,040
Minimum Value: $40
JLA #5 is a classic comic book cover in my opinion.
"When Gravity Went Wild" -- very cool idea!
It's also the origin and first appearance of Dr. Destiny, which gives the book some additional market value.

JLA #9 is the first origin of the Justice League in comic books.
This makes it a must-have for fans of the JLA comic books. It's also a very cool cover (like so many JLA covers from the early 60s).
