It is widely agreed among comic collectors and aficionados that the most important comic book of all time is the first superhero comic book, and first appearance of Superman, which is 1938’s Action Comics #1.

This book is so rare, some experts believe that less than 100 copies are still in existence.  In a hobby that has attracted millions of collectors, and with the iconic name of Superman recognized globally by hundreds of millions, if not billions, of the world’s population, it’s pretty big news when a copy of Action Comics #1 comes to market.

Right now, an original Action Comics #1 is up for auction on ComicConnect.com.  As of when this article was written, it has received 25 bids and is currently at $57,000.  The auction still has over one week to go, and will close at 6:45 PM EDT in Session 1 of the ComicConnect September Event Auction.
