Holy shiz!
System of a Down drummer John Dolmayan has purchased the first comic book featuring Superman for $317,200 dollars!!!
Insane!
The hard rock drummer who doubles as a comic book dealer shelled out the big bucks for the ultra-rare Action Comics No. 1 from 1938 in an online auction for one of his clients.
There are a reported 100 copies of Superman's debut comic in existence and rarely are up for sale. "This is one of the premier books you could collect," Dolmayan explained in an interview. "It's considered the Holy Grail of comic books. I talked to my client, and we made the move."
And how much did the previous owner pay for the rare comic?
Only 35 cents!

I WISH SUPERMAN WOULD DOUBLE FIST MARIO!!!!!
he actually only paid 10 cents b/c it says right on the cover :p
John Dolmayan would NEVER even consider blocking BIG BLACK DICK or HARRY BALSAC from posting things here. It's unfortunate that Mario has forgotten that's the sole reason people even post comments here anymore!!! Just to see what they'll say next!!! I have MAD LOVE for people with no filters!

Re: Big Black Dick – oops, and here too, l fucking ol
How retarded. Must be System of Down SYNDROME.
System of a Down sucks in sound and in name. Just sayin….
what an ASSHOLE. system of a down keep bitching about the armenian genocide. GUESS WHAT ASSHOLES…maybe it would be better off if you actually made a monetary contribution to the poor poor country of Armenia, instead of waging a pretentious war against the Turks. At least they give the Armenians work visas. What do you do?? buy comic books from your Hollywood hills home and pretend like you give a shit about the old school armenians?? you spoiled brat. you and kim K. you are almost the same shit
Yat and Ymi all the time! yhtwri 46
love system of the down. hey is that a big black dick up there.
Listen, I am one of the owners of the original comic book. How can I sell it? please email me at alanalynnt@yahoo.com if you have any information. It would change my life to receive that much money for selling a comic book!!!!
John..janeg..ench gunes gor?
Perez,
You need to get your facts straight brother. John Dolmayan purchased the comic at auction for a CLIENT, not himself! John is a comic book DEALER specializing in expensive/rare comics. Mabey you should read ENTIRE press releases before reporting 2 day old news as well.
Dude,…. it says "10 cents" right on the cover,… not 35
perez is getting to busy n doesnt have time to post shyt on time, like tmz… they posted shyt like a day before perez does LOL.. WTF..hey perez is yer ego gettin in the way ??
JOHN DOLMAYAN
yum my husband.
ARMOS RULE!!!!
THAT cOMIC mIGHT bE RACIST? WHERE IS THE NEGRO ON THE COVER?
Hismattjesty is the ONLY ONE who got this story right.
I'm betting NICOLAS CAGE is the buyer of this comic book. #1 he's known to collect vintage comic books; #2 He's a huge Superman fan; and #3 he named his son Kal-El.
