In the 90's, the entire comic book industry crashed because of speculators collecting comics for the sole purpose of selling them later for what they thought would be millions of dollars. So should we stop collecting comic books? While it's unlikely that something as drastic could happen to the industry a second time, it's still important that we learn from history so we don't repeat it. Scott also goes into detail about how Action Comics #1 can go for $3.2 million, but the Death of Superman only goes for a few bucks. What do you think about all of this? Let's hear what you have to say in the comments below!

Every Wednesday, Comic Misconceptions explores fascinating trivia, crazy stories, and mind-blowing theories about the comic book universe from Marvel, DC, and beyond!
