The Second print edition from 2010 would be in the region of $30. The “Image First” reprint edition of the First Issue produced in 2010 as a $1.50/£1 special, these are still available for $12-14. If you are in the market for a copy and have the cash, again would advise some caution and make absolutely sure you are bidding on a First Print rather than a second print 2010 edition. Further adding to the value will be if the comic has been signed by Robert Kirkman and/or the artists Tony Moore or Charlie Adlard.Īs of October/November 2012, such copies were selling on eBay for around the US$1000/UK£625 (Note* A CGC 9.8 Version of issue #1 attracted 20+ bids on eBay in September 2013 and sold for $1590/£1000, with the 10th Anniversary of issues #1 arriving in October 2013, there are no signs of interest in the early editions declining) with some on the “Buy it Now” option, up to $1500/£935. For copies that are ideally in mint or near mint condition, often, collectors will have them graded by one of the commercial grading organisations (such as CGC) to assess the condition and they will then have a grading certificate and this, in most cases, will increase the commercial value. Hardly surprising, but the first print edition of The Walking Dead from October 2003 is very sought after, it's thought that the initial print run was a cautious 7,300 copies, with no one guessing just how popular it would become. However, the print runs would have increased from the middle to the end of the comic's run, and most standard editions are easy to source.

It does appear to have been a drop in value from their peak, when the AMC TV launched and there was a rush to snap up earlier issues however, the earlier editions have certainly held their value, or increased, and certain variant covers have also remained at a premium. However, to be fair, the second print editions should also appreciate in value and some honourable mentions of this are given below. In most cases, it is the first print editions that are referred to here (on the cover, top left below the Image Comics logo, there will be “Second Printing” to indicate so, the first print just have the logo).

So, you never know maybe lurking in a garage/car boot sale, or even procured at a reasonable price on eBay, you could find yourself in possession of something that is a pretty good investment! It’s worth noting that Image Comics issued a reprint of the Series from #1 to #52 starting January 2011 on the back of the popularity of the TV series.
