No idea. Probably an issue of Batman or Detective Comics.
However, my first Marvel Comic was Amazing Spider-Man #350, one I remember because of how, during Spidey's fight with Dr. Doom, a gas stove exploded, which was awesome to my 5 year old mind. I came across it again many years later. Still awesome. Fitting that my first Marvel comic was a "Spidey vs an Unstoppable Opponent" issue, since, over the years, I've discovered that's my favorite kind of Spider-Man story.
My first introduction was the "Venom: Carnaged Unleashed!" miniseries that I got from an antique store when I was about ten (this woulda been around 2004, so a comic from the 90s being there doesn't make much sense...), and fell in love with Venom. My young mind, having been obsessed with the Spider-Man movies, thought the idea of a huge, no-holds-barred black-suited Spider-Man was the coolest idea ever. Later that same year, my Aunt got me the first volumes of Amazing Spider-Man and Ultimate Spider-Man, as well as giving me her 90s Green Lantern collection (1-50. She stopped reading after Hal turned into Parallax, so Kyle Rayner was never a part of my young life). Suffice to say, between Hal Jordan, Lee/Ditko Spidey and Bendis/Bagley Spidey, I was hooked for life.
I was a kid who read Archie Comics a lot, so they were my first regular series.
My first superhero comic was "The Return of Barry Allen" in The Flash, before I had any idea who Barry Allen or Wally West was.
The comic book story that first drew me in was "The Death Of Superman".
And lastly, the story that made me a comic fan for life was the Spider-man "Clone Saga". Yes, you heard me right. I liked the Clone Saga.

I have no idea, but Archie and The Trigan Empire would be very early and they were what my school had.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Vol 2. The one where the Turtles discover TCRI, travel to the triceradon planet. It was awesome. Everything a 5 year old wants to read about it.
Theres sex and death and human grime in monochrome for one thin dime and at least the trains all run on time but they dont go anywhere.I THINK it was a french (British?) book called ''Bunny Suicides" where bunch of rabbits off themselves in comcial and surprisingly non bloody way.
Then I read a bit of Calvin And Hobbes series, but it's Watchmen that I actually finished, then I read The Sandman.

Continuously reading, studying, and (hopefully) growing.Bunny Suicides is British I think. And oh my goodness, I completly forgot Asterix, Tintin and Footrot Flats.
As a child, I read things like Archie and Mad. During a summer in my college years, a cousin turned me on to Marvel. Avengers annual #7 hooked me for life. It was obviously part of a larger epic, it had a powerful yet enigmatic hero who was killed by a duplicate of himself, and it had a terrifying yet sympathetic villain who got poetic justice. It had great art and great writing.
Things slowly went downhill from there. Comic books never reached that level of wonderment for me again. A few years later I stopped buying them.
Under World. It rocks!When I was wee, my dad bought The Sunday Times. This came with a comic section for kids called The Funday Times, which had a bunch of short humorous strips, the odd news item of interest to kids, and reprints of various classic British kids' comics plus the odd Tintin album. Some of the art in the Funday Times' original strips absolutely freaked me out at that young age.
When dad stopped buying The Sunday Times due to it being rather aggressively British, I moved on to The Beano, and my sister got The Dandy.
Ukrainian Red CrossMarvel1602. It was many firsts at once: my first comic, my first Neil Gaiman solo story (I had earlier been introduced to him through Good Omens), and the first thing I ever bought with my own bank account.

Probably written by Paul Dini. He has a habit of writing his female characters showing their nipples thru their tops.
I got the first volume of The Sandman, the first volume of Preacher and Watchmen at more-or-less the same time. That certainly moulded my taste in subsequent comics.
As a very young child, it was The Beano.

I'll hide your name inside a word and paint your eyes with false perception.

Pretty self-explanatory: post the first comic issue/collection you've ever read.
Mine was Legends
. It was a six-issue miniseries written in the 80's that rebooted the Justice League. It was the Story of Job told thru the DCU: with Darkseid standing in a Satan and the Phantom Stranger standing in as God. Darkseid send his minion Glorious Godfreid to turn humanity against heroes and prove that under persecution that superhuman beings would snap and turn against those they swore to protect. It was an awesome book, and it began a long-standing fascination with comics.
How about yours?
