At least they got the pedigree on there

Coming in late, assuming you were hoping for a higher grade?

it has the wrong issue number

 

 

[Brian48]

Not to mention completely devoid of any artist or writer credits. I've never seen that before.

Should be issue #46, Last Issue.

[Gatsby77]

Yup. And, once reholdered, would be the highest graded copy of # 46.

 

It's my book, but i'm actively seeking raw potential upgrades if Magnus # 33, 43, & 46, as well as any raw potential 9.6 or 9.8 Magnus books.

I love the story in that issue. One of my earlier comic book reading memories.

 

Cool book! (thumbs u

There are tons of examples of those out there.

Not surprising for this issue is it? Doesn't it reprint earlier stories?

[Gatsby77]

Yeah - it reprints issue 25.

 

So no one actually cares about issue 46.

 

Still - I understand that the issue number's not on the cover, but I can't believe CGC did this (missed up # 43 and 46, put each in the wrong cases). Waiting to receive them before I send them back with a note properly ID'ing them for re-holdering.

 

Sigh...

[divad]

Yeah, that's a total bummer about the issue number. My comment was only to indicate that it is common for CGC not to give credits on reprint issues.

The cover doesn't exactly reprint the cover to 25. It's not just the wording on the cover, either. The woman in white boots goes from a sitting to standing position in the reprint. I don't think I've noticed this before.

[divad]

I think there is some variance on all of the covers on the reprint issues of this run. I've sold off all of my copies, so i can't confirm that, but that is what I recollect. I also think some of the later Star Treks were done the same way.

Thanks for the comparison images. There's several other differences I now see as well. I didn't realize the covers for the reprints would have been redrawn. Was this common with the Gold Key reprints? I mostly only had the "cartoon" titles and wasn't aware different art was used.
