    Yeah same people/series but I cant find any for sale or price on the book I showed let alone a pic of it.  I would assume not many where even printed of it.  Probably not worth much but you never know.  As mentioned a list I found the listing for this book is completely blank.  Its listed but with no info unlike majority of the books on the ashcan list.  Just says shadow warriors 1988 issue 0 ? and then no pic or any other info unlike the rest.

    Be the change you wish to see in the world! Send them the photos and page count.

    It looks like the front cover of the ashcan ended up being the back cover of the Shadow Warrior book.

    So, is it a fake? As in someone recreated a comic to pass as an original? 

    Or is it a reprint someone is selling as an original?

    Either scenerio isn't right, I'm just curious if people are printing fakes. 

    Yes, this is a photocopy (sourced from digital scans available all over the internet) printed on the newer gen of laser copier/printers. These machines will print, fold, staple and trim the book to size. There are dozens of sellers on ebay selling books like this. Most call it a replica. I watched the first few minutes of the video, and as the buyer was walking towards the camera holding the book I knew exactly what he bought. Just the way the book separates at the centerfold without the book flopping over his hand, you can tell it's not newsprint. The paper they use in those copy machines is like a 70# weight paper; newsprint is about 20# weight.
