The big comic book news right now is the fact that Heritage Auction Galleries of Dallas, TX just sold a number one issue of BATMAN for $55,268.75. Yeah, you read that right, 55 thousand! There's a photo of it up above showing that it was graded at 5.5 condition by CGC. The guy who owned it is from Alaska & bought it at a garage sale back in the 1970's. So, I'd say that was a pretty good investment. According to the Associated Press there are only about 300 known issues of this book to exist.
