Marc Lasry, Milwaukee Bucks majority owner and hedge fund billionaire, has chosen ComicConnect to auction off his collection of vintage comic books – and they end next week.
“This is a unique opportunity for collectors and investors,” says Stephen Fishler, co-owner of ComicConnect and its sister dealership, Metropolis Collectibles in Manhattan. “There are many significant comic books in the Marc Lasry collection that haven’t been available in years.”
Investment collectors have the chance to pick up Batman #1 CGC 8.0 Larson copy, Incredible Hulk #1 CGC 7.5, Wonder Woman #1 CGC 9.0 solicitation copy, a run of Action Comics starting with #2 CGC 8.0 (C), the highest graded copy of Wonder Woman #2 CGC 9.4, All Star Comics #3 CGC 7.0, More Fun Comics #73 CGC 8.0 (C), Detective Comics #36 CGC 5.0, All Star Comics #8 CGC 7.0 (R), Superboy #1 CGC 8.5, Adventure Comics #247 CGC 8.5, and over 1,200 more comics from which to choose.
“It is with great enthusiasm that I open the doors of my own personal Fortress of Solitude and share my collection with my fellow collectors,” Lasry said.
