You'll get tons of results; parsing through for DVD versions might take some work. Here's a sample of Spider-Man minis: https://www.comics.org/searchNew/?q=spider-man mini comic Just to verify what you are talking about, when you say "Grand Comics Database", do you mean comics.org? Or is there another place? Sorry for the noob question. - EDIT: I figured it out on my own. I see they are one and the same.

Broke as a Joke Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 The 2006 Star Wars trilogy dvd release came packaged with comics as a Walmart exclusive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brock Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 There was a DVD of Dollhouse (from Joss Whedon) that had a mini comic. Was there a Batman: Mask of the Phantasm one as well? i can confirm the Sin City and Hellblazer books from my own collection, but it seems to me there are a bunch of other Marvel books...

Tony D Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 In 1993 Pizza Hut had VHS video tapes of the X-Men cartoon series that came with mini comics. There were four issues. My Comics Shop has pictures of the covers but they are not in stock. https://www.mycomicshop.com/search?TID=210451 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea about the Batman, I've mostly found Marvel, but I am starting to see it is not limited to them. It appears lots of DVDs/VHS came with mini comics. Maybe not lots, but way more than I thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to gather a list on the first page, but I'm seeing there may be more than I can keep up with. So Spiderman Origins either comes with ASM 300 or ASM 252?

They're pretty cool There's one out there called 'The Good Morty' which is valuable and was included in Season one of Rick & Morty. Not my thing at all, but worth money all the same. I went ahead and picked up a copy of "The Good Morty". I paid $40.00 for it, not sure if that's a good deal or not, but I wanted to see what it was all about. It's not my thing either, but I'll take a look at it, and re-sell it if necessary. If not, I'll just keep it in the collection of Mini Comics. Thanks for that tip! @Dan82 Dan82 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, they had two different versions available so you had to buy it twice to get both comics if you wanted them. At least the DVD covers / packaging made it clear which you would get. Quite clever I suppose, as the likelihood of the purchaser being a collector was high, so I bet quite a few people had to double up. Ah, completism. Those were the days....

nocutename Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 (edited) Sorry I don't collect Marvel. DC had a action figure line called First Appearance, that had the first appearance mini comic in the packaging. It was really cute. I got the Nightwing one because I just love Disco Nightwing. I am not much of an action figure collector either and cannot find a website that list them either. I am basically useless this morning. Anyway these were NOT the released mego figures that I keep seeing, they were just regular action figures that came with a stand and in the costume of their first appearance. They also had a line call Origins that had two figures, one with the original and one with the new costume. That may have came with a comic too. I would think Marvel did the same with a toy line too.

Yes, I have about 7 of the Spiderman Origin dvd's at the house right now, but all of them were purchased for the ASM 300. I'll have to look to get the 252 now! That definitely is wild, but you are right, at least they made it clear which one you were getting. @Get Marwood & I 4 hours ago, nocutename said: Sorry I don't collect Marvel.

It actually appears that their pricing isn't too bad for an action figure and the comic. Well at least I don't think it's too unreasonable.
