Nicolas Cage is an iconic actor known for many roles, including the most recent The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent, which saw him playing himself. The actor is also known for being a big fan of comic books, and almost played Superman back in the ’90s and eventually did play Ghost Rider. Cage previously owned many high-valued comics, including Action Comics #1, which features the debut of Superman. In 2000, those comics were stolen from Cage’s home, but some were recovered in 2011. Cage then went on to sell Action Comics #1 for a record $2.1 million. However, not all of the comics were recovered, including Cage’s copy of Detective Comics #27. Recently, Cage talked about how he still hopes the comics will be returned. If you’re interested in the infamous tale, iHeartMedia just announced a brand new podcast called Stealing Superman, which will detail the story of “the most unlikely art heist of all time.”
