LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) – A rare Spider-Man comic book valued at $15,000 has been stolen from a home in Lincoln.
The comic “Amazing Fantasy No. 15” is the first appearance of Spider-Man and sold for 12 cents in 1962.
Nearly 50 years later it sells for thousands of dollars and in May, an unnamed buyer purchased a mint condition copy for more than $1 million.
The owner of the comic stolen from the Lincoln home believes it was taken between Oct. 27 and Monday morning.
