Marvel Comics No.1 Sold for $2.4 Million
How much are you willing to pay for a comic book published in 1939? Five dollars? Ten dollars? But what if the 1939 comic book in question is Marvel's first comic book, and a "pay copy" at that (which means that it has the publisher's handwritten notes which record how much the artists were paid)? How much would you buy such a historic comic?For this unnamed man who just won the online auction for Marvel Comics #1, the comic book was worth $2,427,800. Yup. He bought it for that price. That's almost 100,000 times what Frank R. Paul earned when he drew the book's cover (he was paid $25). Now that's bonkers.Would you pay that much for one comic book?(Image Credit: Michael Cohen via AP)#Marvel #MarvelComics
