Meanwhile, Sotheby's recently announced the private sale "DC Complete: The Ian Levine Collection," offering comics lovers the opportunity to acquire every title released by American publisher DC Comics between 1934 and 2014.
The collection features more than 40,000 titles amassed over the decades by British DJ Ian Levine, with Richard Austin, Head of Sotheby's Books & Manuscripts Department in New York, describing it as "the holy grail for comics collectors."
The Ian Levine collection notably includes first appearances of Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Green Lantern, the Flash, the Justice League of America, Lex Luthor, the Joker, Two Face and more.
While the asking price of the Ian Levine collection has not been revealed, the auction record for a comic was achieved in 2014 when Action Comics #1 fetched $3.2 million on eBay.
Widely credited for marking the beginning of the Golden Age of comics, Action Comics No 1 is valued as the most expensive comic book in the world.
Copies of the comic book series have broken several sales records in the past, going under the hammer for $86,000 in 1992, $150,000 in 1997 and $1.5 million in 2010.
