That's equivalent to just under £10 million quid.

I can remember watching a program where a similar comic was discovered behind some dry wall in the states after some renovation. Wasn't in such pristine condition as the other featured. Incredible price though for the 9.0. :shock:

The original link has been edited as they got it wrong, it actually sold for 15 million dollars ,equivalent to 11.5 million quid !!!
AND it was the copy that actor Nicholas Cage had stolen from him then later returned.
Mr Cage sold it on making a huge profit, at 2.2 million.
At this stage though it is insanity.
15 million dollars !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I don't see any other comic ever reaching a similar value.
I'm happy with my reprint that cost me under a fiver !!!
BUT IT DOES LEAD TO A QUESTION:
What would you believe to be the most valuable comic in your collection???
Not you personally lol but everyone here.
I shall start a new topic !!!

Don't worry jim244. I've been called worse lol. Can you imagine holding a comic worth that much. I'd have a heart attack.

PS. I've added a comment to your new topic. :)
