80s sitcom comic trivia

[rabidwolf]

I was recently bored and remembered seeing a different strokes episode when I was a kid in the 80s where Arnold stole a comic as an initiation to get into a club. He though the book was 12 cents but was charged for felony theft. Couldnt remember what book it was so I did some research:

 

Here are my trivia qustions:

 

1) What book was he accused of stealing

2) What was the actual book used as the prop in the show that he actually stole

3) and how much was it supposed to be worth

I remember it was a spidey 1, supposedly worth like 400 or 500, but no idea what prop used

Thats right as to the first and last question. The actual comic used on the show was another 12 cent issue.

Yup, good memory. I found it on youtube. It was a really nice copy actually that Arnold, the store owner and the cop were bending when it was in their respective hands.

I remembered it was brought up either here or somewhere else.

 

I just posted the video if anyone is interested.

Look at around the 10:30 mark, you can see the back and it doesn't look right. It's B&W.

 

I think it's a prop comic.
