New York, March 30, (THAINDIAN NEWS) The last February record of Action Comics Number One’s auction buy was broken on Monday by another person who reportedly bought one of the rare debut copies of the Action Comics by paying an amount as high as $1.5 million. The comic is reported to be in a condition better than the previous copy which was put on auction in February. This has kept all the comic lovers across the world dumbstruck. According to Vincent Zurzolo, the co-owner of the comic auction website, the record set by the latest buy will be tough to break as he reportedly proclaimed that Action Comics Number One is the greatest comic archive book to be present in the planet.
The comic book lovers have in recent past shed huge amount of money to posses the classic comic books. The previous record was held by a comic lover who bought in February the first edition of Batsman comics by paying $1.075million. However, the actually 10 cent prized Action Comics Number One’s sale has amazed the online auction website which has revealed that the existence of the copy was unknown for 50 years. It was lying inside an old movie magazine. The owner who seemed surprised by the bid reportedly said that for 50 years nobody knew about it and the moment it came in front of all, everybody wanted to get hold of it.
The identity of the person who has bought the Action Comics Number One on Monday has not been revealed. However, it is clear from the price that the person who has paid the whopping amount is a great comic’s fan who did not mind shelling out the amount for a single comic book.
