This is a June 1938 issue of "Action Comics #1 Superman" Take a look at what it sold for on Ebay.

Who would think 1 Comic Book could make someone so rich.

I'm a comic book collector but I would never spend my life savings on a comic, the most I've paid is 5 bucks for a Batman comic that I really wanted, it was from 1982 originally priced at 60 cents.

I only collect "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" (seasons 8, 9, 10) and "Angel & Faith" comic books and the most I've ever paid for a single issue is $25 and that was a special Comic Con variant.

My Mother told me she not only had the first Superman Comic Book, but the First Batman Comic when it came out. Too bad her Mother (My Grandmother) tossed them out.

That's way too much money for a comic book. Think of all the good that money could have done to help people who really need it.

I wouldn't be surprised if she had this also.
