An Action Comics #1 CGC 8.5 has just shattered the vintage comics record books with a $6 million sale at Heritage Auctions. This is an all-time record for a copy of Action Comics #1 as well as the highest price ever paid for any comic book, surpassing the $5.3M private sale of the Superman #1 CGC 8.0 Edgar Church copy in 2022. Published in 1938, Action Comics #1 features the first appearance of Superman from DC Comics, by creators Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster.
In the interest of completeness, it should be noted that the Action Comics #1 Edgar Church copy, part of a treasure trove of high-grade comics purchased in 1977 by Mile High Comics owner Chuck Rozanski , has been sitting ungraded and virtually unseen in the hands of a private collector for decades.
