New Avengers: Pot of Gold

The New Avengers registry set has separate listings for 'New Avengers: Pot of Gold' and 'New Avengers Guest Starring the Fantastic Four.' Aren't these the same book?

Almost forgot, issue six has a contest for Military Personnel to win an appearance in the next issue. Whoever wins will have their face drawn into the issue by the artist as one of the military personnel.

Each issue has a print run of roughly one million with approximately half of those being shipped overseas to Iraq, Korea, Germany, etc..........

Very helpful. My #2 is slabbed so I can't read the indicia. Thank you very much.
