Superman saves family from foreclosure

http://abcnews.go.com/Business/super...ry?id=11306997

A struggling family facing foreclosure has stumbled upon what is considered to be the Holy Grail of comic books in their basement – a fortuitous find that could fetch upwards of a quarter million dollars at auction.

Will this childhood staple survive in the digital world?


A copy of Action Comics No. 1, the first in which Superman ever appeared, was discovered as they went about the painful task of packing up a home that had been in the family since at least the 1950s. The couple, who live in the South with their children, asked to remain anonymous.

If it is legitimate and not a reprint it is an incredible find. Good for them!
