Minnesota Latino Working on Fixer-Upper Finds $100k Comic Book
This looks like a job for David Gonzalez probably wasn’t uttered as the 38-year-old man was renovating a fixer-upper home in Elbow Lake, Minnesota.
He may be no Superman, but he came across a super-find.
According to the Minneapolis Star-Tribune, Gonzalez who had worked as a renovator and construction worker for years, pulled something special out of the walls of the formerly abandoned residence: An issue of Action Comics No. 1 that was being used as insulation.
Action Comics No. 1 introduced the world to the “Man of Steel,” Superman himself. in June of 1938.
“I knew it was worth money,” Gonzalez told the Star-Tribune. “But I had no idea how much.”
The comic book, a rare find in the collectibles world is currently fetching more than $100,000 in an online auction.
