Nice grab. I've been bidding on 3rd prints recently but haven't won one yet at a price I'm comfortable with. Really I think I'd be better putting the money I'd spend on one of these 40th Anv reprints towards a 1985 3rd print. Jesse-Lee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really I think I'd be better putting the money I'd spend on one of these 40th Anv reprints towards a 1985 3rd print. Thanks, I got lucky with it here on the boards. It sat for a bit too, I was sure I had blown my chance (was moving some funds around and waiting on some sales proceeds). My thinking is like yours but in reverse - I thought, I just laid down a decent (for me) chunk of change on this 3rd print, should I really be spending another almost $150 on another reprint? But I think these 40th anniversary reprints - at least the one from Rich for my taste - are cool on a lot of levels, and it's apparent that a lot of work went into making them happen. So I couldn't pass on it. Edited May 3 by Jesse-Lee ADAMANTIUM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I couldn't pass on it. Exactly. At the end of the day there are a bunch of reprints. All with their own unique touch. But this last one, as of now appears to be the one true reproduction of the original. Pretty cool story behind it if you ask me.

Popular Post BeardedBubba Posted May 7 Popular Post Share Posted May 7 My set of Portsmouth Mini-Con exclusive #1 reprints are here. They are incredible! They're IDW color classic reprints of issue #1. 15 different artists each made a variant cover for the con. I just need to figure out what to do with the blank sketch cover.
