That is why the size is important. I should clarify, yes obviously different sizes tell you something. But being the same size as the GA book tells you nothing as the distinguishing features in that reprint are not the size. Edited March 13, 2019 by Bird Also, a famous first edition would have a nicer cover 99% of the time as it was protected by the outer cover. I immediately assumed it wasn't that based on that observation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides the colors, what screams reprint to me is in the lettering in the title. Look at the inking in the top portion (horizontal plane) of the title SUPERMAN. It's way off from the original. There's white where there shouldn't be and likewise blue where there should be white. Yeah I would have to agree the title of Superman colouring is off you can see it in the comiclink graded one and OP pictures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark Knight Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 Definitely a reprint. Just saw it for a second and already knew. Well it's a good keeper copy to just have around and read. Also a good way to maybe fool your friends lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
