If you’re attending San Diego Comic Con this week, make sure you stop by Booth #5416 to see the comic that started it all – 1938’s Action Comics #1. 

That’s right, the very first superhero comic book and Superman’s first appearance will be on display at Metropolis Collectible’s booth in the Golden and Silver Age pavilion.  The booth is against the wall right next to one of the major entrances (B, B1 or B2). 

This copy of Action Comics #1 was just consigned for auction to ComicConnect’s sister-company, ComicConnect.com.  It is the 4th copy of the ultra-rare Action Comics #1 to be auctioned by ComicConnect in 2009.  In March, ComicConnect set the record for the most expensive comic book ever sold at auction with the sale of a CGC graded Fine 6.0 copy of Action #1 for $317,200. 

The Action Comics #1 that is unveiled in San Diego will begin accepting bids in ComicConnect.com’s Event Auction on September 10th at 12 PM EST, and conclude in Session 1 of the auction on Friday, September 25th at 7 PM EST.  Sessions 1 – 4 of the auction end September 25th – September 28th.
