That is the most seriously out of register cover I've ever seen on a comic book, or any book. I can't believe they actually sent that to the bindery.

 

recent Fiction House acquisition:

I agree, and it is on the extra cover to!

I love this book.

It actually adds to the interest. Some people specifically collect mis-registered covers.

 

A mis-registered double cover may be close to unique, especially in this grade. (I certainly cant think of another.)

 

Plus this copy has beautiful colors, which all of us FH geeks highly prize.

 

Extraordinary book!

Thanks for the comments. I absolutely adore the book, and it has quickly rose to the top of my collection as one of my favorites. The colors are incredible in hand and then you open it up and see the interior cover..it is incredible.

My copy of Planet 48 is faded but in register but I still don't like it as much as Planet 22 (next to 48 in the bottom row) which is a little beat up.

#66 and #72 look very pretty also - and you don't often see such deep reds on a #22!

Perhaps that is why I like Planet 22 more than 48. I think the edge is trimmed in photoshop but the color is pretty authentic.

Delighted to have another copy of this tough issue after selling my previous copy a year ago. (This is actually an upgrade!) Nice paper and gloss are its saving graces.

It is easy to brighten the colors a little electronically but it takes time to hide all of the wrinkles (which I didn't do) as seen on your copy of Planet 14.

I've been waiting for a bunch of books to come back from CGC and they finally got here last week. Here are some or the nicer ones.
