Batman In Record Comic Sale

Batman has created a record in an auction of comic book when Detective Comics #37 became the first comic book to sell for more than a million dollars at $1.075 million beating Superman that sold at US$1 million just three days prior to this. Last year, the same copy of Superman sold for "only" US$317,000. That's an incredible investment, if you ask me!

It looks like people with money are investing more into collectibles from comics to memorabilia especially in this market condition but to me, a million grand is a crazy amount of money to buy a pile of "papers" even if it was the issue that Batman or Superman first appeared in! Who cares about superheroes anymore? Apparent, there are plenty of people who do!
