It brings back memories of the summer of 1981 (I think), when I ordered this blind from a used comic dealer's catalogue - paid about $2 for the entire run.<br />It really surprised me when I pulled these from the box - not at all what I was expecting. Even so, I do recall spend a few lazy afternoons reading through the whole series (with a stack of other "old" comics).<br />Also, I'm not one of those knee-jerk Colletta bashers, but his inking on the series was only serviceable as I recall - it would have been better if Smith had inked the entire run...Edo Bosnarnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7897120082101927069.post-17595903530365897232011-06-20T08:10:19.616-04:002011-06-20T08:10:19.616-04:00According the letters page in issue #3, the book W...According the letters page in issue #3, the book WAS approved but the seal fell off somewhere between production and the printer. From the look of the layout, I'm inclined to go along with what you've heard--that they forgot to put the seal on at all.<br /><br />And, like you, I doubt it made an ounce of difference to the retailers.
