shadroch Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 I'm surprised these books have not gained more traction. I just bought a few off of ebay for under $15 shipped. Unless there is some new info on these, they are supposed to have less than 5,000 copies per title. I recall the scramble when these were first discovered and I thought these would be as big as the Marvel .35 cent variants. A regular Spidey 292 had hundreds of thousands of copies produced. The SMFC version has 5,000. I've never seen a three pack of them but that seems to be how they were sold. Anyone else have the bug? It's a pretty small subset but not easy to put together.

Randall Dowling Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 I've never seen one before. Can you post a picture of what the insert looks like? MetalPSI 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brock Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 I guess I question the 5,000 print run figure. I feel like I see these fairly often, and I have duplicates of some. They’re definitely not common, but I’m not sure they’re scarce. They are the kind of thing that is more frequently found in antique malls or used bookstores than in back issue bins, though. I will say that high grade copies seem to be pretty scarce… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So Much Fun version has 4 graded copies and zero 9.4+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadroch Posted March 15, 2022 Author Share Posted March 15, 2022 I'm not sure where the 5,000 figure comes from, but it is a number I've seen mentioned a few times. Perhaps that is what they commisioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post walclark Posted March 22, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted March 22, 2022 I bought a weird collection that had multiples of off beat stuff like the So Much Fun editions. There were 5 of these Archies and 3 of the Betty and Veronicas in there. Just one Star Trek. onlyweaknesskryptonite, Stronguy, shadroch and 3 others 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
