I've never seen or heard of this before and have no clue how to even look it up I can't speak for anyone else, but this book has value to me, that's why I bought it. I paid far less than what an American edition of this book in this condition would cost (this is a Mexican edition, but it IS real). I'm glad my posting this book showed you something new, that was my intention, to share it! I'm not sure where you want to look it up, but if you search the title on GPA, it's there (even though they erroneously entered it as a 4.5) and you can even see how much it cost me (less shipping of course). I am very happy to have it. comicquant 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I for one, thank @Frisco Larson for posting the Mexican Editions because I’ve enjoyed seeing them. They are awesome. The canvas is less busy than the US editions so you can ingest more of the art.

I was absolutely in no way making this statement as an insult... literally the exact opposite... Like you, I quite enjoyed seeing this book...I had never seen it or even know it existed... as soon as I saw it, I googled it but couldnt find much...therefor I asked does it have value ? I was really interested in it, but couldnt find much info on it and was curious if it was as value as normal #1s.... I'm sorry you missed understood what I said...IMO you completely overreacted...but maybe I could have made myself a little more clear... Make no mistake though...my statement was 100% made because I wanted to KNOW MORE about this book that I found very interesting ...

Thanks for the props on the Mexican editions! I really DO feel looking thru them is like being in an old, familiar house and discovering a room you didn't know existed, what with all of the different house ads and some different stories. I admit that I too initially thought it kinda harsh to question the worth of a book someone just posted, but I don't know this boardie and kinda chalked it up to the same way a text message might read "other than intended" due to lack of vocal inflections as when the same thing is said to you in person. I see that he has responded to clarify that he meant no insult and in fact is interested in the book. So no harm, no foul, but I DO thank you for having my back on it!
