Not even three months after a copy of Batman #1 sold for $2 million, the Man of Steel has outgained the Dark Knight Detective as a copy of Action Comics #1 was sold for a record $3.25 million in a private sale. ComicConnect announced the news revealing that this copy of the first appearance of Superman and Lois Lane was given an 8.5 grade (out of 10) by Certified Guaranty Company (aka CGC). In a separate release CGC noted that “only 41 examples of Actions Comics #1” exist using their Universal grade, with only two copies carrying a better grade than the $3.25 million 8.5 version (a “9.0” graded edition previously sold for $3.2 million back in 2014).
