That Brazilian Spectre is so cool. Is it the same contents as the Adventure it's taken from?

 

As for the Cap book, do Panini comics come pre-pressed?

 

What do you mean by "pre-pressed"?

They use a different cover paper stock, but not much thicker than the US one.

 

In the U.S., U.K. and Canada panini refers to pressed and toasted sandwiches. It was a weak joke.

 

Well, "panini" is the italian generic term for any kind of bread sandwich, pressed or not, but you won’t make the association with the surname ("Panini" is a family, they started by publishing soccer-related stickers in the 1960s and became huge – the firm, although it changed property around the "Marvel Italia" time are also from my city, so – yes, 95% of european Marvel editions are now produced in my hometown).

 

You won’t make the association as I suppose you won’t when someone has "Green" or "Black" as a second name in english. Or "" or "Dyke", so to speak, do not imply you remember the swear words, I hope. :)

Arrived today. This one is from Barcelona. It only has Dr. Strange on the cover, but not inside. It reprints a bunch of early Fantastic Four comics but not #27 (which this is the American cover for!) Still, one of the only times Jack Kirby ever drew Dr. Strange!
