The Books That Shouldn't Be...A Treatise On The Second Print Newsstand Phenomenon...

Awesome writeup! It's a perspective I hadn't considered, as I hadn't given a lot of thought to newsstand reprints. Hearing of your research reminds me of the time back in the late 80's or early 90's, when I felt like I was the only one in the world collecting 30-cent Marvel variants from the 1970's. It was quite an epiphany when I deduced that every series must have them, and went hunting for them. I uncovered a number of previously-unknown books many years after they were published, and that's one of the things that can make collecting so much fun.
