1st time I've ever found a DD380 in the wild and keep finding these hologram errors.

DD #380 is EXTREMELY hard to find in the wild, by my experience.  

I agree Id like to find a newsstand someday as well. Ive found the direct a few times.

Dollar box, huh? That's an amazing find! May I ask the circumstances of its discovery? I'd love to see if there's anything connecting this to one of the previously known but vanished copies.

That looks like a pretty clean copy, too!

What exactly is it? A PC game?

Nope! PS2-exclusive spinoff of the more familiar PC EverQuest. This comic, in particular, also wasn't a pack-in with the game itself. It was a preorder bonus, although not all preorders got copies; details are scarce, but there's some evidence that only people who preordered through the PS2 online shopping portal received them.

Nothing too crazy: I was at a small show in Wisconsin flipping through the $1 boxes when I saw this comic. From the boards, I knew there was an Everquest comic worth a ton, but not specifically which one. I looked on eBay and no copies -- and it was just enough time that the April sale (which I subsequently found) was gone. I figured for $1 it was worth the risk. ;)

I believe, from previous conversations, the seller had a store in Wisconsin.

Couldn't resist for a buck...

The weirdest thing for me about this TPB is that it collects the first 3 issues of a 4-issue miniseries. To be fair, there was a really long delay before President Evil #4 released, and I think there was some question as to whether it was ever going to happen. So I guess, since the series got some press attention, that they'd compile what they had as better than nothing.
