A rare copy of the first Superman comic book was sold at auction for $1 million. The buyer wished to remain anonymous, but is described as a mild-mannered reporter for a great metropolitan newspaper.
The selling price for the classic 1938 book shatters the previous record for a comic, which was a shock to the buyer once he saw the price on the cover says 10 cents.
The comic book will seem familiar to fans of the movie Superman Returns in one way. It’s the exact same weight as Kate Bosworth.
One interesting note is how the art may be interpreted differently through time. To comic readers of 1938, Superman appears to be lifting a car over his head. In 2010, he is obviously catching a run-away
