The granddaddy of the superhero genre, the first appearance of Superman, the most important comic book of all time is now up for auction on ComicConnect.com. This example of the “holy grail” Action Comics #1 has been graded 3.0 G/VG by CGC.

"I've held this book in my hands outside of the CGC holder and it is remarkable. Great paper, supple pages, good color and completely unrestored," stated ComicConnect.com COO, Vincent Zurzolo.

“If Action Comics #1 didn’t come along, we never would have had a Batman, a Spider-Man or any other superhero for that matter,” said Rob Reynolds, Director of Consignments. “Superman changed the world we live in and Action Comics #1 started it all.”

With only an estimated 100 copies known to exist, very few collectors will ever have the opportunity to make this hallowed cornerstone comic book the centerpiece of their collection. To provide as many collectors as possible a shot at ownership, ComicConnect.com is offering a 6 month interest-free payment plan for this once in a lifetime opportunity. Contact ComicConnect.com before the auction begins before bidding approval.

The auction begins on March 26th at noon.
