  1. Well im not claiming they are all fake error made venoms....just that i know what i saw, and this guy had been able to make some black errors himself.  Like i said before, i believe most are just printing errors, but people do figure out ways to make thjngs happen, and i know i saw 10 or more black venom errors available for sale from 1 guy who told me how he acquired them.

    Dude! you know so much about this book and the process, Is it possible? , I mean I have been hearing it for years and there was something on the net a while back that I cant find. Seems like many, many people have mentioned or claimed that this happens , Are you saying that this has never happened? are you saying that its impossible? Do you know something that can put this "rumor" to bed?

    Yea i dont remember the specifics but the guy who was creating them lived in chicago and used a heat method to lift the chrome up without damaging the book.  Dont get me wrong, i do believe a lot of these black venom errors are legit printing errors, but i know what i saw and the Ebayer trying to sell me 10 or so error comics told me where they came from.   There is also a legit counterfeit printed black venom error as well.

  3. Well i dont know anyone on here personally, nor do i have a horse in this race, but i do know a few years ago an ebay user did contact me with a proposition to buy about 10 or so black venom error comics.  When i asked how he acquired them after talking about how great a character venom was to us gro3qing up, he did confide in me that he knew a gentleman/collector who did indeed successfully remove the red chrome and had sent a bunch of them to cgc to be graded over the years.  All came back legit error comics, though he had made them.  The guy did show me pics of the 10 or so that he was going to sell me but i was turned off by how they werent legit errors.  With that said, id love to hear if anyone on here had tried removing the chrome and succeeded.

    I got that Captain Bio in 7th grade health class, still have it. I haven’t seen another in the wild ever. It’s a silly book on a serious topic. I still wonder if there’s a case of these languishing in the back storeroom of a middle school somewhere.

    And congrats on all those late modern newsstands! I always pick those types up from $1 bins or cheaper.

    Thanks!  Im happy with it as its kind of an oddball find
