I just scanned this for ebay and was admiring the cover when I suddenly noticed something I'd never noticed before.

 

"If Moribus doesn't kill Spidey-- the Lizard will!"

 

Moribus? :grin:

No doubt I'm the last person to ever notice that and you've all known about it since the date of publication, but hey.

 

Any more typos on classic covers?

Here's an interesting one.

 

Issue #10 was part 4 of 6 in the story arc:

...and issue #11 was part 5:

...so, #12 should be part 6, right? WRONG, it's part 4 (again!) lol

Don't they pay editors good money to look for this stuff? (shrug)

I've commented on this in various threads before...gotta be one of the most obvious BLUNDERS in all of comic publishing history (much more obvious than FF #3 cover whereby Human Torch is drawn by Jack Kirby with two left hands)...anyway, my comments before have been why I've never seen it mentioned in Overstreet or similar elsewhere like it was some kind of dirty secret no one was supposed to mention...

Moribus is bad, but I think the Elecktra error is more egregious. Brand spanking new character that's important in the life of Daredevil, Frank Miller in control, and the very first impression is a misspelled name. doh!
