There is an interesting story behind these different price fonts.
At a Distributors meeting, a Marvel suit made a throwaway statement that Marvel would reprint any book if they had an order for X amount of sales. I believe it was either 10,000 or 20,000. Anyways, New England Comics approachs Marvel with an offer to buy the entire print run if they will do these three issues. GI Joe 2 was a very hot book, approaching the $100 mark at the time. A Marvel suit agrees to this, without consulting with Carol Kalish, the head of Marvel's Direct Marketing.
The first she or anyone hears of this is a fullpage ad in The Buyers guide where NEC is selling them for $20 a three pack. Store owners and distributors go nuts, and Marvel does another run offering them to distributors at their regular discount.
So one of those is a second print, the other is a third print. NEC which thought it had a huge score with its thousands of multipacks instead took a huge hit as the market was flooded with them.
Anyone know what year the reprint was from based on the New England ads?
As I recall, it was around 1986 or 1987.
