David Gonzales got a pleasant surprise when he found a copy of Action Comics No. 1 in the insulation of his new house in Minnesota. The comic features the first ever appearance of Superman and is considered the Holy Grail of comic books.

The 1938 comic book was tucked away and being used as insulation with other newspapers when Gonzales found it. He recognized Superman on the cover and did some research to verify the comic’s worth.

Unfortunately, a few days after finding it, Gonzales got into a heated discussion with his wife’s aunt which resulted in the already deteriorating 70-year-old comic having its back page torn. The tear got the comic a rating of 1.5 out of 10. Recently, a copy of the comic that was rated a 9 was sold for $2.1 million!

Luckily, Gonzales doesn’t care about the money and was just happy to have made such a discovery. “I’m not a hungry person about money,” he said even though it shaved off about $75,000 from the asking price!
