Thanks oldmilwaukee6er,

 

I appreciate your assistance on this. I will share with you (and anyone else) what I have "learned". All Slug 5:

 

1) PROBABLY only has one printing;

2) the first (and probaly only) run was limited to just under 590 issues printed;

3) the comic came with a loose leaf Cerificate of Authenicity (signed and numbered).

 

I hate purchasing something, only to find out later that the item should come with a certificate or that a percentage were signed and yours was not. Thank you,

Cool links. Follow the last one and it appears there was an issue 6 and 7 as well, but no indication of anything before Golden Slug #3.

The probable reason that "slug 1" or "slug 2' are not listed is that the series began life as "More Existential Fun 1" and "More Existential Fun 2".

 

It is neat little series that a lot of UG collectors have not heard of. Makes this collecting niche a lot of fun.

According to the coa that came with mine, there were 586 printed.
