Batman comic in attic.

[The Scribe]

Near-Mint Comic Featuring Batman's Debut, Worth $250,000, Found in Pennsylvania Attic.

A near-mint copy of Detective Comics No. 27, a pre-World War II comic featuring Batman's debut, was recently found in an attic and sold to a local collector.

The comic is considered to be the second-most valuable available and can fetch up to $500,000. The only comic considered more valuable is Action Comics No. 1, in which Superman makes his first appearance.

Collector Todd McDevitt said the Batman issue he bought is worth about $250,000, but he won't say exactly how much he paid or who sold it to him.

Hey, maybe you left your copy of Detective Comics # 27 in his attic?

$$$$$$$$$$$$

[Mr.Musgrave]

Heh. All I know is that I'd bet my left eye that he didn't pay nearly what it's worth.

If he sold it cheap he is stupid. He could have auctioned it off and made. Big money. Sotheby's would have been a great place to take it.

Yeah, except you can't trust some people to make suggestions like that.

Seems he just wanted to make a quick buck and the guy who bought it took advantage. He should have thought about it before making a quick decision.
