Superman: The Man of Steel #17 & 18 (Doomsday)
Iconic1s replied to Brandon Shepherd's topic in Copper Age Comic Books
I know we’re way off topic here but I really think those stickered books should be Universal and not Qualified. For comparison you have guys over in the sketch cover thread burning and cutting up covers and not being Qualified, yet a sticker put on by the publisher gets Qualified? Makes zero sense to me! -

Iconic1s replied to Brandon Shepherd's topic in Copper Age Comic Books
Thanks! My personal opinion (and I am nowhere near the DC Universe logo expert here) is that they were 1) in lower numbers and in packs sent to toy stores etc like onlyweaknesskryptonite mentioned and didn't survive in high numbers in high grade, and 2) in the case of the Doomsday/Funeral story were the last printings of the books (although not every book from this set with multiple printings got the DC Universe logo treatment). I also think that where they shared the first/only printings spot with regular editions they just look really cool with the logo on them, which appeals to me. I -

This is exactly the way I felt back when these came out. I remember seeing many 2 packs with these later printings at Toys R Us and passed when I saw the Roman Numeral. I even remember thinking that the way title colors changed made them look cheap! Man did my opinion change over time! I think the problem then was that the first printings were still easy to find AND not many people, other than @onlyweaknesskryptoniteand maybe a few others were wise enough to see how cool these were in real time. Also people like @Brandon Shepherd et al starting threads like this about this set makes -

I appreciate the reply and any help! It would have to have a good shot at 9.8 for me to want to buy it as I’ve already got a 9.6. This one isn’t hard to find, just hard to find in high grade. I'm also really interested in any unopened packs that this is in. Thanks again for the reply and please let me know if you come across anything.
