I have 4 copies of Godzilla ( Marvel ) # 3  and noticed today that one has a triangle around the price and a blank block where the other has a normal looking block has price, date with Godzilla above it and upc code is on the others. Is one considered more valuable or whats up with that one? I know there is a 35 cent variant, but all 4 are exactly the same except for mentioned differences. Any one know anything? Like I know some of y'all do, lol. I going a little cabin fever crazy from this self quarantine.

They are Whitman variants. Some people may collect them but for the most part I don’t believe they add any value. Sorry!

I kinda thought that, seems to me the Whitman s would carry less value since I think they were sold in General stores in like multi packs of 3 comics, If i'm remembering correctly. I just found some Battle star Galacticas  that are the same way, 1 - 3.

Actually they're not . . . :whistle: And they are collectable for anyone who cares for any kind of variation whatsoever. :)

The BG issues are very common, probably hard to get any premium there.  The Godzilla #3 is not nearly as common.

That's a rebagged version that was available as part of a Whitman 3-pack.

Yes sir, exactly

Thank you Warlord, wonder if there are any type of print run numbers out there anywhere on these type of variants verses the common prints.??

Nothing that I've ever seen is going to help you with specific print runs of the 1970s variants.   But there's a wealth of print run info at https://www.comichron.com/

Check it out!

Thanks Peoples! :shy: 

I would have left believing the only edition I'd be after in the wild was a 35 cent variant, now there is something to keep in mind, hopefully it doesn't push anything else out of the noggin (:

Triangle? :whistle:

Lord I hope I did the correct punctuation marks at least.

I'm just confused as to why you called this a triangle . . . :bigsmile: Are you geometrically-challenged? lol
