Awesome: Nic Cage at Comic Con Is Just So Good

CHRIS YOUNG

Nic Cage is experiencing a renaissance; he's had 8 movies out in the last two years, with at least four more coming up in 2024.

This video is from 2016, but it's still so cool to see:

He is a national treasure.

No pun intended.

Very fun stuff to watch.

It would blow our minds, too.

Yes; he'd have been fantastic in some of the super hero movies out there.

We would pay good money to see this.

Yes, he is.

It really is pure joy.

Yup. Absolutely a nerd.

Totally chill.

Great minds think alike.

He's a true fan.

The absolute GOAT.

And if you don't know the story, here you go:

Nicolas Cage’s nearly-pristine copy of Action Comics No. 1 featuring the first appearance of Superman sold for a record $2,161,000 in an online auction that ended Wednesday.

It is the first comic to sell for more than $2 million at auction.

The previous record was $1.5 million for a less well-preserved copy of Action Comics No. 1 sold in March 2010. 

Cage’s comic was stolen from his home in 2000 and only recovered in April when an unidentified man bought the contents of an abandoned Southern California storage locker.

Few comics have as interesting  or complicated a back story as Cage’s copy of Action Comics No. 1.  Certified Guaranty Company, the leading grader of the quality of collectible comics, recently assigned this copy a grade of 9.0, making it the highest publicly-graded copy of Superman’s first appearance.  

Approximately 100 copies of Action Comics No. 1 remain in existence.

Cage bought the comic in 1997 for about $150,000. Some of the other comics were not recovered, and Cage talked about that while promoting the 2022 film 'The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent':

Yes he is.

Here's hoping no one steals those, like they did the others.

We're fans too. He's done some really fun ones lately.

He's also finally out of $6 million in debt -- the debt incurred by bad real estate investments. He did it by taking movie roles he wouldn't have normally taken, moving to a lower-tax state, and never filed bankruptcy.

Good for him.
