8 posts in this topic

was wondering if you know is this rare? As ive tried to find the exact same comic - WITH 'ALL-COLOUR' in Title on various sites but mostly marvel comic group  / presents is the only hit I'm getting for this comic, I know all about pence copy (issued in England after being issued in America) I asked similar question in another chat forum but still waiting for answer, so dont know if I'm posting this question in right place or not, sorry in advance for being total noob. Please see comic below any ideas how to locate the exact same comic as i would like to know what kind of value do i put on this one? Any advice welcomed

They were printed on the same press as the US cent copies,either at the start or the end of the run .They would change one of the print plates to put the UK pence price on then they would be put on a boat and shipped to the U.K.  Eventually marvel also changed the header to marvel all colour comics so that they could be seen to be the real deal as opposed to the U.K. reprints which were in black and white. About 5 to 10 percent of the run would have been pence copies

Don’t feel silly, this was a solid newbie question.  Many people ask terrible questions bereft of thought and consideration.  I don’t count yours among them.

 

good luck
