whisp Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 (edited) how does one tell the difference between first,second and third prints? especially the first 60 issues. thanks It was discussed in this thread. http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=1045089 My understanding is white spidey face up to #22 and then at #23 went to black spidey face until #68 for the first editions.

General Zod Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 I almost forgot: for issues #25-27, has anybody ever seen any copies that do not have the black spidey UPC? I'm beginning to think even the newsstand bar code UPC didn't exist for these three. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

General Zod Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 Yeah, people out there are picking the raw issues clean. Makes it really tough right now. I'm hoping I will make a lot of headway at the Cactus Con in January before I send in some big submissions trying to get more graded NM-up copies into circulation.
