Dunno if I posted this yet, but this is the rarest book Ultraverse ever printed.

About 200 printed, then they all vanished. The other golds show up now and again, but the Prime has shown up once in the last 5 years.

 

that's pretty sweet. When was it printed ... ?

 

Never mind. I just bought it on ebay ... seriously.

 

I see a SILVER holographic cover just sold for $19.99 from comix4all...was that the one you bought?

 

The silver holo is common.

 

This is the GOLD holo.

 

HAHA ... yes, well there you go. I guess that's what happens when you run without the research... hehe. Soooooo, tell me more about the gold .... :grin:

There you go. It's not a bad price to pay for it, even still.

 

The golds were made for every silver holo cover out there. They are all extremely rare, with the exception of Ultraforce, which was only produced in gold.

 

Most people aren't even aware the golds exist.

Interesting. So, for future reference, how do i tell it's a gold from silver? Then i'll know what to hunt for and can add it to my list with Josh Howards Dead @17 self-printing ... heh

Here's the gold and silver next to each other:

Note the difference in the holograms' tones. Because of the nature of holograms, it's sometimes tough to tell. In hand, it's easy.

Received an item today that I've been looking for for a few years now. I see there is someone selling them for $125, but that's more than what I was willing to pay. Ebay has not had one all this time, then a couple weeks ago 2 show up at the same time. I picked up one.

See if you can come across one.

I just picked up one of these off eBay, didn't know anything about it until I saw your post, so thanks for the tip. (thumbs u
