00:08Listen to this. Three brothers cleaning out their late mother's San Francisco home stumbled onto what looked like an old cardboard box full of newspapers and dust.
00:17Under all of it, a pristine copy of Superman No. 1, the 1939 debut of the Man of Steel's very own comic book.
00:26Look at that thing. It turns out it wasn't just rare. It was record breaking.
00:31Get this. The book just sold for nine point one two million dollars, making it the most expensive comic book ever auctioned.
00:40And I think what actually really added to the story was how it was found that this was, you know, a new find that no one had ever seen before.
00:51Hey, lucky them. The family says their mom always claimed she had valuable comics stashed away.
00:58Good thing they finally checked, right? Because Tuck Behind the Dust and Cobwebs was a nine million dollar superhero.
01:05That'll buy that family a really nice Thanksgiving dinner. And after that, likely lots of nice Christmas presents as well.
