Yeah, pretty much any non-Golden or Silver Age comic book (40s to 70s) is probably worth about as much as the paper it was printed on (if you're lucky). And those are mainly valuable because there just aren't that many comic books left from the first few decades of the industry: they were printed on cheap paper that didn't last, and also many comic books just got thrown out since collecting wasn't really a thing until later. Action Comics #1 isn't valuable because it's the first appearance of Superman, it's valuable mostly because there are almost none in existence.
