No grader notes were ever posted. I meant the way the red was on the back cover looked like blood and it switched over to white like in the pic... so books will fade on the back as well as front of front faces out?

does red ink fade before other colors? Is that why only blue is left on front? 
my other issue on the front is that the purple ish square is in the same spot on a normal cover.

This is the back. The red seems to run out. I’m just trying to understand how the sun fade works... why certain colors fade but others seem unaffected. I understand fade can happen but no dealers I’d shown this book to thought it was sun fade. So I’d appreciate any explanations. The scratch is on the case not the book. Thanks forum.

I'll post a pic of the back later....

They didn't even mention the unwitnessed signature.  Which I get...I have another book that had an unwitnessed signature and it got a qualified label.

I recently submitted a Watchmen #2 and wanted to find out if it was indeed a printing error.  I've found out it's a 6.0 and got a Universal grade. 

It appears that the red ink didn't run and mix on the front as the letters that are red on the normal version are stark white on my copy.  The face is also blue and light blue not purple.  The back cover was also supposed to be red, but it is white with a slight bleed of red at the top.

 

I have taken this around to dealers for the last 10 years and no one had seen a cover like this.

 

Does anyone out there have any information on this copy.  When I get it back I will post it.
