Although This Story Is A Couple Of Days Old

I still like it as one of those 'good luck' stories,

Michael Rorrer of California and his brother Jonathan were fleetingly told as youngsters that they might one day inherit their great uncle's collection of comics, a chance conversation with a coworker meant that the once thought worthless comics were in fact worth a small fortune, the one above alone valued at valued at $325,000!

this one is expected to go for $475,000, who said comics were for kids! speaking about the impressive hoard Lon Allen, the managing director of comics for Heritage Auctions, the Dallas-based auction house overseeing the sale said: 'this is just one of those collections that all the guys in the business think don't exist anymore', in all the collection contains 44 of The Overstreet Comic Book Price Guides list of top 100 and four of the top five - a figure that associate publisher of the guide called 'dizzying', the collection is expected to fetch more than $2million, good luck or what?
