嗯，事情是這樣的，最近comicconnect.com.正在拍賣一本Action Comics#1， http://www.comicconnect.com/bookDetail.php?id=432101 由於這場拍賣將在本月30日結標，目前標價又已達100萬美金，因此大家都很看好會突破先前漫畫市場上的最高紀錄150萬（也是AC#1）。但有趣的是，這本AC#1的所有人似乎就是咱們的好萊塢頭號漫畫迷尼可拉斯凱吉.... -------------------------- http://tinyurl.com/7td77lc Nic Cage’s Stolen Superman Comic Poised to Break Auction Record 尼可拉斯凱吉曾被竊走的超人漫畫可能突破漫畫拍賣的最高出價 The first appearance of Superman stolen in 2000 and recovered in April could sell for $2 million. 這本超人首次登場的漫畫曾在2000年被人偷走，並在今年4月失而復得，未來的成交價上看200萬美金。 -------------------------- Nicolas Cage’s nearly-pristine copy of Action Comics no. 1 featuring the first appearance of Superman—stolen from his home in 2000 and just recovered in April in a storage locker—is poised to become the most expensive comic ever sold on the open market during an online auction now being conducted by comicconnect.com. 尼可拉斯˙凱吉近全新、曾在2000年被偷走且在今年4月失而復得的漫畫收藏：超人首次登場的Action Comics# 1，很可能將成為目前comicconnect.com.成交價最高的拍賣品。 The auction started today and ends on Nov. 30th. After just a few hours bidding has already reached $900,000. The current record is $1.5 million for a less well-preserved copy of Action Comics no. 1 sold in March 2010. 此次拍賣於今天（美國時間11月11日）開始，並將在30號結束。拍賣開始數小時內，買家的出價就已經達到了90萬美金。目前漫畫市場上最高的成交紀錄為2010年3月的 150萬美金，同樣由Action Comics#1所保持， 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 best-preserved publicly-known copy of Superman’s first appearance. Approximately 100 copies of Action Comics no. 1 remain in existence. Experts believe only about five others, all in private hands, are of comparable quality to this copy. Sotheby’s sold this comic at auction in 1992 for a then-record $82,500. Cage bought it in 1997 for about $150,000. 很少有漫畫背後的故事像凱吉這本Action Comics #1收藏般有趣且複雜。漫畫書況評鑑中最具公信力的CGC（Certified Guaranty Company）最近將這本凱吉的 Action Comics #1評為9.0，是這本漫畫目前已知的最佳書況。目前世界上僅存的 Action Comics #1約有100本，專家估計其中只有5本的書況與凱吉的收藏相當。凱吉的收藏最早是由蘇富比所拍賣，成交價為82500美金；1997年時，凱吉則以15萬美金入手。 On January 21, 2000, Cage reported the comic stolen to the Los Angeles Police , along with high-grade copies of Batman’s first appearance in Detective Comics no. 27 and Marvel Mystery no. 71. According to an account Comicconnect CEO Stephen Fishler posted on a collector’s website, Cage had the books displayed in security frames mounted to the wall. The exact moment of the theft is unknown but the comics had possibly been missing for a week when Cage discovered the frames were empty. The Marvel Mystery resurfaced a few months later but the other two comics remained lost. 2000年1月21日時，凱吉向洛杉磯警方通報漫畫遭竊，當時凱吉失竊的收藏除了此次拍賣的Action Comics #1以外，尚包含了一本書況極佳、蝙蝠俠初次登場的Detective Comics #27，以及Marvel Mystery #71。根據Comicconnect CEO Stephen Fishler在網上的描述，凱吉為防漫畫失竊，平時皆將之收藏在嵌牆式的保險箱中，凱吉很可能是在漫畫失竊一週後才發現保險箱已經被一掃而空的。事件發生幾個月後，凱吉的Marvel Mystery #71失而復得，但其他兩本珍貴的漫畫依然不見蹤影。 In April 2011, Cage’s copy of Action Comics no. 1 was recovered in a San Fernando Valley storage locker. The man who found the comic had bought the contents of an abandoned locker. Cage’s publicist released a statement from the actor at the time calling the recovery of the comic “divine providence” and expressing hope “that the heirloom will be returned to my family." Cage had received an insurance payment for the comic but at the time expressed interest in reaching a settlement to regain ownership of the book. 今年4月，凱吉的Action Comics #1在San Fernando Valley的一處廢棄置物櫃中被發現，凱吉透過發言人表示，這次失而復得是「神的恩佑」，並希望他的「傳家寶能趕快回到家裡」。凱吉先前已經因偷竊事件取得了保險公司的給付，因此他希望能透過協商早日取回漫畫的所有權。 Fishler would not confirm this is the Action Comics stolen from Cage but the provenance of the comic--from its sale in the early 1990s to its theft in 2000 —matches the history of the Cage comic. Comicconnect is selling it for the current owner, which is still believed to be Cage. Representatives for Cage have not yet responded to a request from The Hollywood Reporter for comment. See a copy of the fabled Cage Action Comics no. 1 below. 雖然Comicconnect 的CEO Stephen Fishler並未證實此次拍賣的Action Comics #1即是凱吉著名的收藏，但拍賣品「自90年代的賣出至2000年的失竊」的出處介紹符合凱吉收藏的描述，因此一般人都相信這次拍賣品的所有人即是尼可拉斯凱吉，但凱吉對此尚未發表任何有關評論。（連結內有凱吉收藏的照片） http://www.comicbookmovie.com/fansites/debbiedowner/news/?a=49730 CBM這篇後半段都是在引述上面的新聞，但前段一直在酸凱吉破產和禿頭啊XD ----------- 只能說，凱吉叔的漫畫之路真的坎坷又離奇到了極點，令聞者無不肅然起敬啊！ -- 一些關於美漫、電影與玩具的胡謅。 Q for Quest: http://qn123456.blogspot.com/ -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 114.36.225.114
