  1. Hey,Clay: when you wrote “Only 50 copies of this ultra-rare comic book are known to exist”, you started that sentence with a small “o”.

  2. Two copies of that #1 Superman Comic Book were stolen out of a house in Chicopee Falls,MA. One was read but one was still in the wrapper. Plus every Batman, Wonder Woman and every comic known to exist was in that collection.
