But, being stuck at my desk all day and marveling at the book, it got me thinking hm I wonder what the "2/4" could be. So, I'm letting you guys tell me a story if you'd like what YOU think the "2/4" could have been for! lol

 

Doesn't anyone buy cases of beer anymore? It was a shopping list!

 

A reminder to pick up one of these after dealing with snot nosed kids all day...

2/4 is the time window the original owner had planed for the crime. Upset that the clerk at the local shop was always mean to him, he had planned to bust the windows of the store that night and take the Spiderman books the clerk cherished. He wrote 2/4 on the Dardevil because that's who he considered himself to be, he was going to dress up like Evil Kenivel and ride his bike through the store's glass front. The 2 was for 2am, when everyone would be sleeping, and 4 was 4 minutes, the time he gave himself before the shop owner would wake up to the noise and run downstairs with his bat. It was one of those older shops where the owner lived in the apartment above the shop.

When the book was printed, Stan Lee put it in his collection of file copies. 30 years later, a robber ran in to steal some of Stan Lee's File copies, and he grabbed this. On his way out, he tripped on a new mutants 98 because they are EVERYWHERE and fell into the printing press which was printing Xforce 1. the Daredevil 1 fell in as well, and in a freak printing accident, DD 1 got a polybagged in an Xforce 1 polybag. Some kid with an obsession with fractions bought the book, and did his math homework on it. That's how 2/4 got written on it.
