What's Fantastic Four #2 worth in 2025?

With one CGC NM/MT 9.8 copy known to exist that sold for $65,000 in 2013 we can guess what the value might be if the same copy sold today. It certainly might enjoy a healthy increase but a new successful film franchise could push prices to amazing new heights. These lower number issues are poised for a significant return on the investment. A FN 6.0 in 2009 brought around $1,000 and today that same issue might go for $3,500. While that is a healthy return it doesn't match the rise by percentage of some other books that have recent films. The lower grades are extremely affordable with GD 2.0 copies that went for $260 in 2009 bringing almost double today at $1499. You always want to purchase the highest grade you can afford but even lower grade copies of these issues are a solid buy.

Why is this comic book valuable?

Fantastic Four #2 is not just any second issue but THE second issue of the Stan Lee and Jack Kirby era of collaboration.
