ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) -- A comic book introduced by Democrat Al Franken before he became a U.S. senator from Minnesota will be sold in an auction later this month.
Heritage Auction Galleries is auctioning a collected volume of Don Simpson's ``Megaton Man' featuring an introduction Franken wrote in 2005. It's signed by both men and includes a sketch of Franken, the former ``Saturday Night Live' comedian.
The auction is slated for Nov. 20 in Dallas. The comic is valued at $2,000 to $4,000.
All proceeds will go to the USO, the nonprofit that brings entertainment to U.S. troops.
Franken spokeswoman Jess McIntosh says Simpson illustrated Franken's 2003 book, ``Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them,' so Franken returned the favor by writing the introduction.
