Superman #1 Comic Finds Attic, Becomes Most Expensive Ever Sold
A remarkably well-preserved copy of “Superman #1,” discovered in a California attic, has become the most expensive comic book ever sold, achieving a record-breaking $9.12 million at auction. The comic, found by three brothers while clearing out their mother’s attic, was from the first print run and in exceptional condition. Heritage Auctions deemed it the “highest ever graded copy,” further contributing to its value. This sale surpasses previous records held by other Superman comics, solidifying the character’s enduring legacy in pop culture.
