Top 20 Most valuable Justice League Comics
The Justice League of America (aka JLA) has been around since 1958 -- three full years before the Fantastic Four jumped onto the bandwagon.
Their roots are in the Justice Society of America (aka JSA), which first appeared in All-Star Comics #3 way back in 1940.
There are even some Silver Age DC Comics where the JSA return from the Golden Age to meet the JLA. Some of those are collectible.
The original lineup of the JLA in 1958 consisted of:
Over the years, various characters would come and go from the super-team.

Brave and the Bold #28
1st appearance of the Justice League of America
Lowest price $1,000
Average price $6,000
Record price $810,000
The first appearance of the JLA includes Flash, Green Lantern, Wonder Woman, Martian Manhunter and Aquaman.
It's the first super-team of the Silver Age, and a book which sometimes gets mixed in with a run of JLA comics, so worth checking issues #28-30 if you have a stack.
Brave and the Bold #29
2nd JLA appearance
Lowest price $80
Average price $475
Record price $38,000
Like issues #28 and #30, Brave and the Bold #29 can sometimes be found mixed into a stack of regular Justice League of America comics.
It's always worth checking just in case!
Brave and the Bold #30
3rd JLA appearance
Lowest price $60
Average price $400
Record price $35,500
Another book which can (and does) turn up mixed into a stack of regular JLA issues.
Worth at least ten times the amount of the regular issue #30.
Justice League of America #1
First solo super-team
Lowest price $300
Average price $2,000
Record price $348,000
Not the first JLA appearance (Brave and the Bold #28-30 features those), but a classic and much-collected comic featuring Batman, Martian Manhunter, and many other DC heroes.
Justice League of America #2
5th overall appearance
Lowest price $60
Average price $400
Record price $18,000
Early JLA issues are really cool, with great cover art and very scarce in higher grade, yet worth a fraction of equivalent low-number Marvel comic books.
Justice League of America #3
6th overall appearance
Lowest price $50
Average price $350
Record price $9,000
This book is notoriously tough to find in high grade, due to its mostly-black cover background.
Mystery in Space #75
First crossover appearance of JLA; 7th appearance in all
Lowest price $20
Average price $100
Record price $2,650
The first time the JLA appeared in a different title, and chronologically the story is before Justice League of America #4. An obscure issue from an obscure title, and under-valued in our opinion.
Justice League of America #4
Green Arrow joins the JLA
Lowest price $40
Average price $250
Record price $17,000
Many characters came and went over the years of the JLA.
Green Arrow (who co-starred in the famous Green Lantern #76 in the Bronze Age) joins the team here.
Justice League of America #5
1st "hot" Wonder Woman (new facial look)
Lowest price $50
Average price $300
Record price $7,800
A classic cover best-known amongst collectors for being the first "hot" Wonder Woman comic book cover.
Diana's face had been "homely" since her first appearance in the Golden Age, and this was a departure reflecting the older audience attracted to comic books in the 1960s.
Justice League of America #6
1st Professor Amos Fortune
Lowest price $30
Average price $200
Record price $10,000
Amos Fortune is a luck-based villain who (just a wild guess) gets unlucky when he fights the JLA.
He goes on to form the Royal Flush gang in Justice League comics #43.
Justice League of America #7
Last issue with 10c cover price
Lowest price $25
Average price $150
Record price $3,900
The Silver Age saw the first ever inflationary price increase in comic books, from 10c to 12c (a 20 percent increase!).
By the end of the 60s, comics cost 15c, and by the end of the 70s they were 35c.
Justice League of America #9
1st origin of the JLA
Lowest price $40
Average price $180
Record price $7,800
Origin stories are always highly sought-after by collectors. This is the first time that Justice League comics tell the origin of the JLA, but not the last!
Justice League of America #10
1st Lord of Time and Felix Faust
Lowest price $30
Average price $120
Record price $8,700
Felix Faust is a mystic sorcerer who sold his soul in a Faustian pact to the Demons Three.
Lord of Time is also known as Epoch. He travels across the dimension of time to amass power, but is defeated by the JLA.

1st JSA in the Silver Age
Lowest price $50
Average price $300

The Justice Society of America first appeared in All-Star Comics #3. This is their Silver Age debut.
Justice League of America #22
JSA story continues
Lowest price $40
Average price $150
Record price $38,400
The JSA crossover story was too big for just one issue, so Crisis on Earth-Two continues here.
Justice League of America #40
3rd Silver Age Penguin
Lowest price $20
Average price $100
Record price $4,000
Penguin is one of the all-time great Batman villains. Here he fights the Justice League for the first time.
Justice League of America #43
1st Royal Flush gang
Lowest price $25
Average price $80
Record price $2,850
Professor Amos Fortune returns to bedevil the JLA with an entire gang dedicated to riding their luck in crime.
Nothing beats a Royal Flush... right?
Justice League of America #46
1st Silver Age Sandman
Lowest price $15
Average price $80
Record price $850
The Sandman has appeared in many guises over the years. This is his first showing since the dark days of the Golden Age, when he was truly a terrifying character.
Justice League of America #55
1st Silver Age Earth 2 Robin
Lowest price $10
Average price $50
Record price $1,075
An important return from the Golden Age for Robin.
Is it me, or does it just look like the artist took a Batman pose and stuck Robin's head and logo on it?
Justice League of America #64
1st Silver Age Red Tornado
Lowest price $30
Average price $130
Record price $2,200
The next return of a Golden Age villain is Red Tornado, re-imagined in the Silver Age.
Justice League of America #74
Black Canary joins the JLA
Lowest price $15
Average price $60
Record price $1,100

100th issues are always a milestone. Some collectors seek them out.
Justice League of America #137
Superman battles Golden Age Captain Marvel
Lowest price $10
Average price $40
Record price $300
In the Golden Age, Captain Marvel comics outsold Superman comic books!
DC acquired the rights to the character, and featured him sporadically over the years.
