Nicolas Cage, well-known “actor”, once owned a copy of Action Comics #1, the first comic book featuring Superman. The comic is worth $1.5 million and was stolen from his home a decade ago and recently found in a storage locker in Los Angeles.

Cage bought the issue in 1995 and it is one of 100 known to exist. Reportedly that when he heard the copy still existed he told his young daughter “Tool up, honey bunny. It’s time to get bad guys.” Then he acted horribly in the National Treasure series.
