So here is a question for this group. Do any of you know how to tell what print is the above #2 ? 

I was just talking with this to Vailiantman and this is what he has.

I just found my notes from Richard Pini.

ElfQuest #2 (first publication by WaRP Graphics)

1st printing - $1.00 cover price

2nd printing - $1.25 cover price

3rd printing - $1.25 cover price

4th printing - $1.50 $1.25 cover price  [EDIT: I was mistaken, this is a $1.25 cover price, not $1.50]

5th printing - $1.50 cover price

6th printing - $1.50 cover price

By the way, ElfQuest #1 with the $1.00 cover price was produced the same month as ElfQuest #4.

So how do you distinguish between second and third if they both have the $1.25 CP? Mine has the $1.50 cover price, but the indica says $1.25.

I just double-checked the notes and it's only 5th and 6th printing that have $1.50 cover price.

It's got to be either 5th (April 1981) or 6th (September 1981), but unless there's a date somewhere, I don't know how to tell.

Any further information would be appreciated.  Thank you!

I've been trying to find a photo reference for how to tell the editions apart.  Except for the cover price ($1.00 = 1st, $1.25 = 2nd,3rd,4th, and $1.50 = 5th,6th) and the 2nd printing $1.25 cover has a $5.00 subscription price, I don't know of any differences.  There's not a note of difference for $1.25 3rd and $1.25 4th, or a difference for $1.50 5th and $1.50 6th.

Added this one to my extras as Ricard and Wendy Pini are supposed to be guests at Pensacon this year . Hopefully I will be able to find a CGC SS witness there.

Hmm.. not sure.  You should ask them when meet them?  

 

Here's my copy.
