But this wasn’t just any box, and the family suspected they’d struck gold when they discovered among the titles “Action Comics No. 1,” the comic that introduced Superman to the world and brought to life the superhero genre, which remains popular to this day. It also happens to be worth upward of $250,000. Asylum writes: When the family contacted Stephen Fishler, the co-owner of ComicConnect and Metropolis, he was naturally skeptical after receiving countless similar calls, of which “99.9%” turn out to be reprints, he told Asylum. But then they texted him a cell phone picture of its cover, which features Superman holding a car, and Fishler knew he’d found the key to comic book fans’ collections all over the world. The comic is expected to fetch more than a quarter-million dollars when it goes up for auction on ComicConnect — and that’s a low estimate. In February of this year, an unrestored copy of “Action Comic No. 1″ sold for $1 million, according to the Los Angeles Times, followed a month later by the sale of another copy in better condition at $1.5 million.

While packing up the home they expected to lose, a family finds their hero stashed in the basement.
More than 70 years after Superman first saved the day in the pages of a comic book, the Man of Steel has reached out and saved a family in the real world.The house had been in the family’s possession since the 1950s, which is probably when the wife’s father stashed the issue in a box with some other, mere mortal titles.

At last firemen have put out a big forest fire in California. Since then, they have been trying to find out how the fire began. Forest fires are often caused by broken glass or by cigarette ends which people carelessly throw away. Yesterday the firemen examined the ground carefully, but were not able to find any broken glass. They were also quite sure that a cigarette end did not start the fire. This morning, however, a firemen accidentally discovered the cause. He noticed the remains of a snake which was wound round the electric wires of a 16,000-volt power line. In this way, he was able to solve the mystery. The explanation was simple but very unusual. A bird had snatched up the snake from the ground and then dropped it on to the wires. The snake then wound itself round the wires. When it did so, it sent sparks down to the ground and these immediately started a fire.
