Probably a NM copy The Walking Dead #1 signed by Kirkman on the cover (I actually have a complete run of the series and prices always seem to be going up)
Also
FANTASTIC FOUR #52
UNCANNY X-MEN #5
JOURNEY INTO MYSTERY #112
IRON MAN #1
AVENGERS #5

I've never bothered to have them valued or check the value online. BTW I collected the Walking Dead, but I have done it in the hardback volumes. Man they're heavy.

It's well worth subscribing to this comicspriceguide.com/ . You can keep track of your collection and their value...which is increasing more than ever every time a big or small screen appearance of a character is announced.

I couldn't see me ever parting with any though (though I'm sure that once I meet the choir invisible my kids will have them sold )

You mean individual comics, but a good general rule of thumb for valuable comics will always be based on whichever are the most popular characters. You can never go wrong with Batman and Spiderman.
Golden age comics are old enough now that even crappy ones can be quite valuable.
And Silver Age stuff that had a great artist or a particularly great run can be quite valuable: Any Neal Adams, Fantastic Four 1 - 100, Amazing Spiderman 1 - 100, first appearances are always worth something.
But from the 90's up... its pretty much dog doo doo, except for a handful of things like 1st appearance Venom, Walking Dead #1, 1st appearance Deadpool. etc.

Valuable in terms of monetary worth or sentimental connection? I don't really have anything worth any real money. The closest is Superman/Aliens #1 signed by Dan Jurgens.
But for sentimental worth, it's the Death of Superman. It's the storyline that made him my favorite super hero.

...interesting question; I own complete runs of Sandman, John Constantine Hellblazer, Deadworld (an early zombie comic) Punisher and the Dark Horse run of The Shadow. Since I collect for sake of it, I've no idea what these might be worth. Also, a copy of "The Death of Superman" still in the shrink wrap and a first run printing of The Arkham Asylum written by Grant Morrison and illustrated by Dave McKean (hardcover graphic novel)

sostie: thanks for the info. All of what I described was purchased new and read once and then placed in acid free storage receptacles. My collection is in pristine condition. And my previous post only reflects a small percentage of my collection.

Is Spawn #1 still a thing? I remember that used to be worth a lot.
Aside from that, I have a Capt. America and Spiderman from the early 80s that comes to mind. I have no idea off the top of my head what issue they are.
I don't really collect comics, I read them. The last several years I thought nothing but digital or trade paperbacks, neither which is really worth anything.

The last several years I thought nothing but digital or trade paperbacks, neither which is really worth anything. Spawn #1 is listed at $12 (non variant version). I have found though that some sell online (I had a huge amount of duplicate issues at one point) at a lot more than the listed value. Some 80s Amazing Spider-Man can be worth a bit, especially those with venom. #300 is about $250. As with most of the popular heroes in the 80s they are mostly a little more valuable if its an issue with the introduction of a new character

$12?! I thought I remembered it being worth a lot more than that.
I forget what number the Spiderman is, but it has a robot on the front.

Let me give mine a look....
The front cover has: -- store numbered writing in ink above the 'M,' about the size of a pinky fingernail -- 2 'scrapes' (colour missing but not through the page) in the purple around Iceman, one small but obvious and one smaller and less obvious -- wear around the edges -- handling creases as well as an obvious fold in the upper right corner where the page wasn't stored/handled very well
Inside: -- I assume the borders around the panels were white(er) when new but now they're all a light beige -- the fold in the upper right corner on the cover is replicated on every page in a diminishing fashion to a little beyond the midpoint of the comic
The back cover: -- the staples aren't quite perfectly centred on the spine but just over the edge on the back which through handling has caused the page to tear a tiny bit at one staple -- handling creases as well as 2 folds where the comic wasn't stored properly although luckily these folds aren't replicated to the pages within

I manage to grade my own using various guides online (never had any complaints about the grading when I sold some) so google comic book gradings and give it a go yourself. These are the guide values. 10.0 (GEM MINT) $220,000 9.9 (MINT) $176,000 9.8 (NEAR MINT/MINT) $132,000 9.6 (NEAR MINT+) $88,000 9.4 (NEAR MINT) $44,000 9.2 (NEAR MINT-) $36,960 9.0 (VERY FINE/NEAR MINT) $29,920 8.5 (VERY FINE+) $22,880 8.0 (VERY FINE) $18,480 7.5 (VERY FINE-) $14,080 7.0 (FINE/VERY FINE) $10,560 6.5 (FINE+) $7,920 6.0 (FINE) $7,040 5.5 (FINE-) $6,160 5.0 (VERY GOOD/FINE) $5,280 4.5 (VERY GOOD+) $4,400 4.0 (VERY GOOD) $3,960 3.5 (VERY GOOD-) $3,520 3.0 (GOOD/VERY GOOD) $3,080 2.5 (GOOD+) $2,640 2.0 (GOOD) $2,200 1.8 (GOOD-) $1,760 1.5 (FAIR/GOOD) $1,320 1.0 (FAIR) $880 0.5 (POOR) $440 If you get it graded and slabbed by CGC the value is sometimes double !
