A nearly pristine issue of Action Comics #1 — the first appearance of Superman — goes under the hammer next month and is expected to surpass the world’s highest-ever comic book price of $5.3 million.

“Without Superman and Action Comics No. 1, who knows whether there ever would have been a Golden Age of comics — or if the medium would have become what it is today,” said Barry Sandoval, the vice president of Heritage Auctions, which is staging the April 4 sale.

The book is so coveted, collectors will snap up copies — and even pages — in any condition. 

“The colors are stunningly rich, and the cover is almost pristine and largely unmarred,” the lot description explains. It is rated 8.5 [Very Fine+] in collector parlance.

Industry experts believe only about 100 copies of the 85-year-old comic book, out of 200,000 printed in 1938, survive.

While I have no brief for the LibDems, they are at least a moderate party. I find it quite disturbing that a filthy bunch like Reform appear to be more popular. 

The gammonati been radicalised by the brother Barclay, Murdoch, Viscount Rothermere and the rest over time.

Younger, poor critical thinking types are influenced by the likes of Team Putin, the rich right wing nutjobs of the US, Tate, random dicks of Twitter and thick c*nts down the pub.

Both factions have been utterly mugged off and are losing it a bit.

No fan of IPAs or citrus beers, but hazy just means it hasn't been fined.

You wouldn't necessarily know if a beer was fined from a blind tasting.

Sounds like it's off one of @Xanns compilations of sunshine pop

Got a CDR and a glorious black and white photocopy of the promo

It's got an extra 8 tracks though.

See it got issued yet again.

Extra 16 tracks on Now Sounds. That's sort of interesting, also too expensive on Discogs.

Highbury and Islington station.

Was up there last night. Needed to go a way up the Holloway Rd. Ended up at the Landseer Arms. Nice place, but not one to be described as a must visit.

A fun one around there is the Hammerton Brewery tap room.

They do great beer and their signature strong chocolate bar stouts. There's a pizza oven too.

It's west of Highbury & Islington. They also have a pub to the north. Both are walking distance from the tube.

As a kid I suspected I wouldn't be around for interstellar travel and that was a disappointment.

Now the World is actually going down the shitter on a wave of greed, ignorance and stupidity, I'm quite content to shuffle off before seeing the worst of it.

It was just a just a brief blip. The next post in Off Topic corrected it.

No problems since.

Thanks for your time

This is fine, if they're annihilated in the final?
