The COMPTEL experiment aboard CGRO, exploring the previously unknown sky at MeV-energies, has so far detected 10 Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN): 9 blazars and the radio galaxy Centaurus A. No Seyfert galaxy has been found yet. With these results COMPTEL has opened the field of extragalactic Gamma-ray astronomy in the MeV-band., Comment: 4 pages, 2 figures including 1 color plot, to appear in the Proceedings of the 3rd INTEGRAL Workshop "The Extreme Universe", held in Taormina, Italy, 14-18 September 1998
