Edge of Spider-Verse #2 Black Error Cover?
0

5 posts in this topic

Hello,

I just acquired an Edge of Spider-Verse #2 copy that looked different than the copy I bought when it first came out. The front cover was much darker when I put the two books side by side (I included a scan of my copy.) I searched for information in these forums but I wasn't able to come up with anything as to any error books that were printed. When I went to a google search I was able to pull up one site that noted the error.. http://www.recalledcomics.com/EdgeOfSpider-Verse2Error.php I know there are other examples such as Venom Lethal Protector #1 where error covers have been recognized. Why is it not the case with this book?

The Venom error is a result of the foil not being applied; it's a clear error of a part of the production process being skipped. What you have is not an error, but rather a variation (NOT a "variant") in the printing process. Most comics are printed using 4 inks: cyan, magenta, yellow, and black. Sometimes colors run a little strong or a little weak, resulting in some color differences. Is it interesting? Maybe, if you're into that sort of thing. Is it valuable? Depends on how many people are willing to pay a premium for it. Generally that number is only significant when there is a serious "cool" factor to it (like missing foil).

There is definitely a premium for this book, as I have mentioned before.
:whistle:
