A 1939 comic featuring Batman's debut which was found in an attic has been bought by a collector for 250,000 dollars (£125,000).
The comic is considered to be the second-most valuable available after Action Comics No. 1, in which Superman makes his first appearance.
Todd McDevitt, who bought it, said: "It was a typical story of someone cleaning up junk in their attic and finding an old comic book and wondering if this was one of those ones that was worth a lot of money."
