Walking Dead Image Firsts question

[bass4punk]

I just noticed that there are now three listed for the registry set, each with a different release date. Is this right, or did a couple get through with the wrong release date on the CGC label???

I know it has been reprinted at least once with a different print date. Not sure about a third though.

1. #1 Original

2. Special Edition (2008)

3. Image Firsts Edition (2010)

4. Image Firsts Edition Second Printing (2011)

The weird thing is, they added three different print dates for the Image Firsts issue. Wonder why these wouldn't be listed as second and third prints, like the regular 7 and 8. I know I submitted a #2 second print, which has the print month on the cover, yet it was still slabbed with the wrong print date. I only see one for the third submission, in the census report, which makes it seem that it was mislabeled. Maybe it's just me, but I don't want to go crazy trying to find a book that doesn't exist

 

Edit: the releases dates in the census are 3/10, 9/10, and 4/11. 3/10 looks right, is there really a 9/10??

Yup, there are 3 different printings of IMAGE FIRSTS: WALKING DEAD, each with different dates and different ads.

 

CGC doesn't distinguish them as "second printing", "third printing", etc. because the books themselves don't. But, as it's been pointed out, they *can* still be distinguished by the dates in the indicia (and therefore the CGC label.)

But doesn't need 3 registry slots. Who requested the addition?

That was my sentiment. It looks like the 4/11 issue has a slightly different cover (top and bottom black borders) but it's odd someone requested an addition. I'll need to check some of the registered sets and see if anyone has any of the new additions. I briefly sorted through the registry addition forum, but nothing caught my eye. Probably a PM request to Gemma

 

Well Jeff, looks like I'll be looking for two more books now

Tell me you didn't. Now we have to remove them.....again.

Didn't the 2nd print have added photos from the tv show?
