Most Expensive Comic Book Ever Sold of the Day: A copy of Action Comics #1, previously owned by actor Nicolas Cage, has sold at auction for a record $2.16 million.
Only around 100 copies of the famous first appearance of Superman still exist, and very few of them are in good condition. The Cage copy, graded at 9.0, is one of the best-preserved copies known to exist.
The previous most expensive comic, another copy of Action Comics #1 graded 8.5, sold for $1.5 million in 2010.
The Cage copy took an interesting path to auction. It was stolen from the actor’s home in 2000 and discovered by an anonymous person who purchased an abandoned storage unit.
Although the comic’s previous owner is still unidentified, the company that sold it at auction, ComicConnect/Metropolis Collectibles, was apparently involved in its recovery.
