The Spiral Symbol. By admin. One of the most important symbols used by the ancient Celtic peoples, the spiral is actually a universal symbol shared by many other primitive cultures worldwide. Both in Ireland and in China, for example, it was used as a symbol of the sun.
As one of the highest-graded copies of Spider-Manâs first appearance ever to be sold at public auction, it was expected to fetch a high price. In fact, it set a record, selling for $454,100. Thatâs the most ever paid for a Spider-Man comic at public auction. To commemorate the sale, CBR compared it to the current record for a copy of âAmazing Fantasyâ #15 as well as other notable comic books.
Iâve never handled any financial details for any publishing company (and wouldnât publicly discuss any numbers if I had), but that strikes me as plausible. I would, however, guess that really small comic houses typically pay less than $80 a page. In comparison, novelists make much less than $80 a page. Novelists typically earn an advance of ~$6000 for their first-published novels if they have agents and ~$3500 if they do not.
