About the Department

London's comic book auctioneers

Key issues, first appearances and graded copies from Marvel, DC and 2000 AD can command serious money. Condition is everything, so keep comics flat, bagged and away from sunlight.

Our comic sales feature rare and vintage issues, first appearances and graded copies from Marvel, DC and independent publishers. A genuine key issue in strong condition can command real money at auction, and our team know how to identify one. Every lot is assessed in-house, drawing on real knowledge of print runs, grading and collector demand.

If you want to sell comics, whether a single key issue or an entire back catalogue, London Auctions can help you unlock its full value. We offer free initial valuations with no obligation, and whether you choose to proceed with us or not, our team will give you honest, practical advice on the best route to market.

Sell With Us

Selling comic books with London Auctions

We regularly sell comic books on behalf of vendors, from single rare issues to large collections sold as one lot. Key issues and first appearances, Golden Age and Silver Age comics, variant covers, graded and signed copies, complete runs and independent small press titles all sell well.

We will always advise on the best way to split up a collection, whether individually, in runs or as a whole, to achieve the maximum return at auction.

Frequently Asked

Common questions

How do I get a free comic book valuation?

You can get a free valuation four ways: visit our saleroom Monday to Friday (8:30am-4:30pm) or at our valuation mornings every other Saturday, send photos via WhatsApp for the fastest response, submit an online request with photos and a description, or post smaller items to us free of charge. One of the team reviews your comics in person or from photos and responds within one working day, with no obligation to consign.

What sort of comics do you sell?

We sell comics including rare and vintage issues, key first appearances and graded copies from Marvel, DC and independent publishers. We also handle full estate and probate collections, from a single key issue to an entire back catalogue.

How much does it cost to sell?

Our fee structure is simple: a £1.50 + VAT lotting fee per item, plus 18% + VAT commission on the hammer price. For example, £1,000 worth of comics sold would net you £784 after commission, excluding the lotting fee. There’s never a charge for the initial valuation, whether or not you go ahead.

When will I receive payment?

Once your comics sell and all buyers have settled their invoices, we process payment by bank transfer within 21 days of the sale ending.

How long does it take to sell a comic collection?

From collection to payout usually takes around four to six weeks. It can be slightly longer if we think your collection is best placed in a specialist sale.
