A rare first edition of Superman, discovered by three brothers in their late mother's attic, has fetched a record-shattering $9.12m (€7.9m) at auction in Texas, US, making it the most expensive comic book ever sold.
“Superman No. 1” breaks the record previously held by “Action Comics #1”, which sold last year for $6m (€5.5m) and which also featured Superman on its cover, as the influential comic introduced the character to the world.
