I won this copy in a contest from @Point Five (among several other awesome comics). But you can be sure this is the one I coveted being a lifelong Thor fan and a recent PHM enthusiast. It is the only one I have secured so far but anyway....

The price change portions look similar but not exactly the same-- though the 12 cent certainly does appear under the title somehow.

That's cool. Two different copies with the same printing scenario:

In both cases, the 12c of the price correction appear to sit behind the 'JO' of the title and yet both are placed differently indicating they were applied by hand. I can't find any others online after a quick search but will look out for them. 

My initial thought is they may be connected to the 'Black Circle' price variants, which would be cool - 75 & 76:

Yeah at first I thought I might have gotten the same book from Frisco Larson until I checked my records. Pretty neat to find something that fits under the old price stuff researched by@Get Marwood & I

Cheers Dude :)

Glad you posted it - I'll pick up any progress over here:

Frisco, I'm sure you have heard of the phrase, "It's like Christmas in July." Based on all your purchases, you could use the phrase, "It's like Christmas in <insert current month>."

Hahahaha, thanks Joe! Yeah, I've been on a spree, but these books don't come up for sale very often, so I gotta strike when they're there! I don't REALLY need to eat lunch this week :/   lol

Where’s the Mexican version? No one in this hobby is going to take you seriously until you can demonstrate at least some commitment.
