Sonic and Knuckles Special #1 Comic Book FAQ
What is the value of Sonic and Knuckles Special #1?
I have a copy of Sonic and Knuckles Special #1 and I want to know what this comic book is worth in different grades as a first printing?
✔️Accepted answer:
The answer depends on whether you own a Type 1A cover price variant copy, or just a regular/plain copy of Sonic and Knuckles Special #1. If you own a price variant, lucky you, it is worth $35 in 9.2 (Near Mint Minus).
Suggested answer:
Check the cover price of your copy of Sonic and Knuckles Special #1, and if it is $2.50 then congratulations, you own the more-rare cover price variant type which has a higher value. If not, then you own the regular type which has a lower value.

Why are the Sonic and Knuckles Special #1 cover price variants worth so much more than the regular copies?
✔️Accepted answer:
Among surviving copies of Sonic and Knuckles Special #1, the market area that received the $2.50 cover price copies was a restricted area representing less than 10% the population of the total North American comics market. That's because the destination market for $2.50 copies of Sonic and Knuckles Special #1 was Canada — hence the name Canadian Price Variant as a short-hand for $2.50 Price Variant. All of this adds up to a market value for the $2.50 variant approximately 158% higher than the regular copies in Very Fine / Near Mint condition (as of our 2023 CPV Price Guide Edition).
