I thought they held up well, and were still fun - I’m pretty sure my nostalgia filters were set to “high” though, so I could be biased.

Yorick Posted June 18, 2022 Author Share Posted June 18, 2022 Marwood brought this fun "variant/error" on the Complimentary copy of FG1 King to my attention (it's Wipple's book). On 5/4/2022 at 11:49 AM, Get Marwood & I said: FLASH! Ah-aah! His book's COMPLIMENTARY! What's going on at the top right of that copy Wipple? White version with a blobbed out price? And since my copies finally decided to make an appearance, I thought I'd look through them to see if there were other variations. Do you know why these were labeled as "Army Giveaway" or "Cerebral Palsy Giveaway"? Why wouldn't they all be the same? They all LOOK the same (at least the ones I have). It turns out that only ONE of the above copies matches the contents that are listed on the GCD!!! If you have a copy, please tell me what you find at the centerfold. aardvark88, Get Marwood & I and OtherEric 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorick Posted June 18, 2022 Author Share Posted June 18, 2022 (edited) And while you're digging around for your own copies of the Comp FG1 to look at the centerfold, here's another photo of more Flash that was with my Comp friends. Oops. Starlight? How'd that get in there? Edited June 18, 2022 by Yorick Alignment OtherEric 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorick Posted June 19, 2022 Author Share Posted June 19, 2022 Okay okay okay.... My "GCD" edition is the Mandrake centerfold story which is two full wraps at the middle. Basically no advertising (one page). ADAMANTIUM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorick Posted June 19, 2022 Author Share Posted June 19, 2022 What if King just printed up all the Flash contents and had them on stand-by for whatever entity that wanted to use a comic for marketing? It would be really easy just to print the two sheets separately for the centerfold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems there is a FG story at the beginning and end, separated by the four pages (or two leafs) at the center. I'll count anyhow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorick Posted June 19, 2022 Author Share Posted June 19, 2022 And for those of you who don't have a Complimentary FG, here's something different for you to look at (available on the Bay from some seller in Germany): OtherEric and Get Marwood & I 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
