They were both VERY well protected by brutal forces in 1938, each already being dictators of their respective countries. This guy had no problem getting close to Hitler in 1938.

Or if there's anything else from that year which you could buy for $1 which would net a similar or better return than AC1? Well even their IPO was $40 a share. So only a $1 in 1938 would amount to probably less than $8,000.... Kripsys99 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would leaving Action #1 reprints count? Wouldn't they then become first prints? kav 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But as you say, there were consequences. Before this occurred, the most valuable comic book was not Action #1 at all, which was a little known book with a character who was cancelled after 5 issues. No... the time traveler went back in time to secure what was indeed the world's rarest and most valuable comic. But he got greedy. He piled away box after box of the goodies, expecting to be rich beyond his wildest dreams. But he also inadvertently altered the past. Then he kept going back further and further trying to correct his mistake. But the changes kept piling up. It's a long story, but his machinations ended up making the Superman character a hit. And the boxes of what had once been the world's rarest and most valuable comic, now made valueless due to his over stockpiling? Major Inapak. True story. This is so funny and clever. True story - when I first read this thread a few weeks back I stumbled upon a copy of Major Inapak the very same day only hours earlier. I had never seen one before. Cost me $5 and the cover detached the first time I flipped though it. Edited June 5, 2021 by grendelbo clarification kav 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
