If Comic Book Guy were real, he’d probably be crying. The most expensive comic in comic book history has been sold! An anonymous buyer paid $2.16 million dollars for the 1938 first issue of Action Comics, the first comic ever to feature Superman.

The online auction first started with just $1. No one knows who the seller was, but it’s rumored that actor Nicholas Cage was the previous owner (it seems he used to own a lot of weird stuff). There are only about 100 copies of Actions Comics No. 1 thought to exist, with only a few of those likely in decent condition, which is what made this copy so valuable.

The purchase is the first time anyone’s paid over $2 million for a single comic book. The previous record for the highest comic book purchase is for the same comic, which was sold for $1.5 million learned, keep your comic books! You never know if their good condition could get you an extra 5 million dollars.
