  1. From BBC News: Comic showing Batman’s debut sells for $1m

    Cover of Det. Comics No. 27

    A comic showing the debut of superhero Batman has been sold for more than $1m …

    The sale comes just days after an early edition of a Superman comic sold for $1m – only to be outdone by Batman.

    Barry Sandoval, of auction house Heritage, claimed it was the biggest price on record for a comic book.

    “It pretty much blew away all of our expectations,” he said of the $1.075m winning bid.

    “We can really say that Batman has nosed out Superman, at least for now.”

  2. Batman is pure winsauce. His superpowers are working hard and being rich, in theory making him the everyman.

    I want to buy some Bob Kane originals.

    Out the door to the LOLympics. Laters.
