‘Captain America Comics’ No. 1 Sells for $3.1M At Auction

There are some classic comics that are worth more than people can imagine. Amazing Fantasy #15, Detective Comics #27, Action Comics #1, and now Captain America Comics #1. A near-mint copy of the first appearance of Steve Rogers/ Captain America just sold at auction for $3,120,000.

When the comic book first hit stands in December of 1940, we were still a full year before the attack on Pearl Harbor, but WWII was already going on. That’s why this comic is probably one of the most iconic of all time from a historical standpoint as it features Cap laying out Adolf Hitler.

Captain America and his sidekick Bucky (who also debuts in this issue) were created by comic book gods Joe Simon and Jack Kirby. 

The Heritage Auctions Comic Book Auction is going on through Sunday and the available items read like an ultimate wishlist of comics and comic book art for any collector. You can check out the complete lot HERE.
