ComicLink has sold X-Men #12 CGC 9.8 featuring the first appearance of the Juggernaut for a record $57,000 in their Winter Featured Auction on February 26, 2026.

“As the saying goes, nothing could stop the Juggernaut from achieving this historic result. This example is one of just two of this key first appearance to ever be certified at the prestigious CGC 9.8 grading tier, with none graded higher. The Juggernaut is one of the most popular villains in the beloved X-Men franchise, and this could be the only CGC 9.8 to come up for public auction for many years to come,” ComicLink founder and Managing Director Josh Nathanson.

“ComicLink has been achieving record prices for certified comic books and related artwork for 30 years now. We’ve set many thousands of record prices while also offering our consignors looking to maximize the return on their collections with outstanding customer service and the best consignment terms in the hobby,” Nathanson said.

ComicLink’s next auction consignment opportunity is the Focused Auction that starts on March 13, followed by another Focused Auction in April, and the Spring Featured Auction that begins on May 15. Much more will be added to these auction previews in the days and weeks to come.
