I wanna start chasing Marvel 2nd prints...

Some of the Age of Apocalypse books have reprints. My copy of X-Men Chronicles #1 is a second print. I think Astonishing X-men #1 has a second print as well. And many have "X-tra" editions. Don't know whether those are technically reprints.

 

Yes, they're all second printings (the "X-Tra" editions), and most, if not all, the #1s from AOA have them.

Searched the web for a definitive list and came up with nothing, except random issues here and there. My list so far looks like this...what other books should I be adding???

Of these I can say that Secret Wars 1 2nd print is the scarcest of this bunch.

Happy searching on that Great White Whale!

I don’t think ASM 390 has a 2nd print. There is a polybagged gold cover but that was a special cover not another printing.

There is also Ren and Stimpy 1-3 that has 2Nd printings... I have the number 2 and still looking for the rest.

I don’t know if it’s been mentioned yet but there are waaaaaay more GI Joe 2nd prints than that. They stretched into the thirties at least.

Has any other comic series had more reprints than Joe? On top of the gobs of traditional 2nd prints there was the Tales of GI Joe series, the three packs, those weird little digest copies, even more recent reprints included in those action figure comic packs, It has to be a record.

And the Action Force series for Marvel UK

yes.

Makes GI Joe look like a piker.

Plus....ECs, Batman from #397-#425, Superman (1987-1989), and others. 

Batman #251's been reprinted 10 or more times.

Killing Joke has 15 (and counting) printings.

Undergrounds, like Zap, Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers, and the like have been reprinted out the wazoo.

But I think the king is Classic Comics/Classics Illustrated.

Not sure if the list I see is just the ones you are looking for or a full list of what had a second prints and third prints.

GI Joe had:

Second prints of 2,6,7,8,10,11,12,14,17,18,19,21,23,25,26,27,29,30,34,35,36,37,38,49,51,52,53,55,63, and 64.

Third prints of 21,29 and 63.

 

When it comes to 21 I am not up to date of what they have said about the second print.

There's more. #3-5, and others. There is no second print of #21 that's ever been found.

How many printings did Silver Surfer #50 have?I'm not 100%,but I think I've seen a third at least?

Was there more than two printings of some Secret Wars 2?
