1st Superman Comic Sells for $3.2M

It’s a bird! It’s a plane! No, it’s a $3.2 million check! A nearly mint-condition copy of the first comic book featuring Superman has sold for $3.2 million on eBay. New York comics dealers Stephen Fishler and Vincent Zurzolo said Monday that they submitted their record-setting bid to seller Darren Adams of Federal Way, Washington. About 100 copies of the comic are believed to exist. Fisher and Zurzolo own ComicConenct.com, which auctioned off a copy of the same comic book for a then-record $2.1 million in 2011. Their latest purchase is believed to be the most expensive comic book bid in history.
