Nice comic! Here's a Modern Newsie, unless someone has a VERY good reason to say nay!

Well, there's only one version of this book and it was only available in comic shops, so I'm not sure this qualifies as a newsstand book but it definitely has the newsstand barcode style.  Weird one! lol

Yeah. Just looking like it could or should be a Newsstand edition doesn't make a comic book a Newsstand edition.

Found this Fantastic Four issue 415 at a LCS yesterday. What I found most interesting is that mycomicshop.com doesn't mention a Newsstand version. I wonder why...hm

Not every comic which has a newsstand version is explicitly called out on MCS.

I have a newsstand version of #2 of this series; no mention of it. Not a conspiracy.

MCS doesn't generally separate Newsstands. Most of the ones I've seen that they do are mistakes, referring to standard (Direct) editions of issues that have enhanced versions.

Oh I wasn't thinking about conspiracy or anything. :ohnoez:It just so happens to be the site I have saved on my phone and when I'm out and about I'll go to the site out of convenience. :)

I agree they do make mistakes...heck we're all humans and not perfect. :bigsmile:  Anyhoo, it was a silly side thought after seeing that FF issue and knowing it was Newsstand.:blush:
