Comic book collecting with a foreign variant focus 19 19

[kpaqu1]

I just call them all "alternative" printings. Then nobody can get super nerdy and argue with me about definitions.

I’d like to comment on the #300: I always loved the original cover, so maybe my opinion is biased

 

I too am a big ASM 300 fan...you have no idea......

I like to see them as 'Editions'..the Spanish edition, the Norwegean edition, the Turkish edition...so on...and so forth..Editions...Variants, to me anyway, are more of the same book, with tweeks, same timeframe; editions has more room to explain foreign books are counterparts of the original printing, without using the word "reprint"...just saying

[TheLiamSturgess]

You mean the 170? These were only distributed to the UK.

Sorry, just realized the 178 is the Punisher issue - that one was only published in the UK as well

A super cool gift from EricB.....still thinking of the perfect gift to reciprocate this awesomeness...

Minty minty fresh

These are special books for me, ONE...for the fact that I am a United States Army Combat Medic....TWO...because I am someone who is born and raised in Mexico and was in the Mexican Army.

 

The Original, and the La Prensa edition

Now you need an italian one, Ches! (thumbs u

They just printed #1-13, but they are damn hard to find, and usually command at least a whopping $90 (or more) each.
