Not the greatest Atlas cover but the reason it’s a fav for me is that purple background looks terrific with the yellow lettering. Also the title is from the 1942 Lugosi film!

Popular Post sartrexpress Posted March 12, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted March 12, 2023 This is the rare edition that contains the actual Ditko story. Most other copies have a different interior.

I forget the actual reason for the mixup but I have seen them posted here before. CGC does state this on their labels too. Apparently there are more mixed up copies than the ones with the truly intended contents? Another more knowledgeable boardie might explain better!

Some printing plates were scrapped and picked up by an unscrupulous party in the late 50s. They reprinted material from a variety of publishers, mixing and matching various covers and interiors. So the Str Fant 9 listed as a "variant" is not a variant of Strange Fantasy 9 but a bootleg reprint frankenbook of dubious origin and legality.
