yeah, i thought i read somewhere that he was supposed to stay grey, but the printer misread it

[excelsior1986]

It was something like that. I've heard two versions of that story. Printer mistake and also they changed it because it was easier to print the green and stay consistent with the color hues then it was with the grey.

I always heard it was that explaination (green easier to reproduce consistently than grey).

That is what Stan Lee said in an interview i have seen.

They made the conscious decision to make him green after the first issue due to the grey coloring being difficult to keep consistent. So i guess this one does not count as a mistake.

I think it may have been red on the interior pages (just a guess).

Can anybody with a raw copy verify this? A pic would be awesome too!

Peter Parker / Peter Palmer

This is in ASM#1, right?

I have the masterworks and i think they corrected it. I have never read an original copy.

 

The error was uncorrected in the early Australian reprint of ASM #1, Done in 1963:

 

 

One of the error panels:

 

 

"Peter Palmer" can (just,sorry) be seen in the centre panel.

 

I can just make it out ... Nice!

Look at what Bullseye is saying to DD- there's an H missing. Often missed

[bababooey]

I looked at all the words on that book for like 3 minutes and couldn't see it.

Hornhead is spelled hornead - DD 131 cover

[catrick339]

Don't have a scan handy, but Tales of Suspense early Iron Man issue (43?) had the word Pharaoh misspelled as Pharoah both on the cover and the splash page in big ol' part-of-the-art-header letters

Came across another...

Avengers # 12 - page 11

A thought bubble by one of the Mole Man's subterraneans should have been for Iron Man.
