Superman comic sells for millions

An intact copy of the original issue of Action Comics, where Superman makes his first appearance, has been auctioned online for $2.16 million (€1.6 million), becoming the first comic to break the $2 million barrier.

The issue, which was originally published in 1938, was stolen in 2000, but it turned up in a Californian storage shed in April this year.

ComicConnect.com, the site that hosted the auction, didn’t disclose the name of the seller but there have been claims it was Hollywood actor Nicolas Cage.
