At best it is worth $10 or less and that is being generous. The only misprints of this issue that are worth significant money and should be slabbed are the Platinum misprint (bloodshot title and box are platinum) or the Gold(pink) misprint which occurred when there was an issue with the gold edition and the valiant box came out pink instead of gold.

This one has no foil

What foil?? It was produced with a wraparound chromium cover (shiny plastic), and that's what it looks to be in your photos. Looks like all the others on eBay. I don't have a copy on hand to compare it to, but is there some specific thing on the cover that you see to be different than usual?

If you look closely at the BLOODSHOT logo on his comic, you can see through the boarder of the letters right through the cover.

@Siggy I see what you are referring to. It would have been "less lazy" if @Amspider had pointed that out in the original post, instead of us having to "look closely" to figure it out.

And I think I can see some partial text showing through in the box over the $3.50 price. There is a similar one on mcs that say "Manufactured with partial silver ink on interior cover" on the grading label. Asking price is $700 for a 9.6, so a definite maybe on getting it slabbed.

Not trying to LAZY. But thanks for the response. Here is one with foil and one without.

Definitely a more enlightened presentation of the differences. Lacking in the first post, causing it to be very vague. Could be a winner. Some people specialize in collecting oddities.

Sorry for the vague first post. Is there anyone interested in a book like this? I am willing to take offers.

No worries from me. Your first post implied there is something different about your book, so I looked for the difference.
It's good practice

@Siggy The post said "Is this book worth anything? Thinking to sell or send to get graded!!" (and then a photo of a Bloodshot 0). How would you jump to an "implication" of something different about the book from that? I think you added in @Hcanes mentions of misprints, which I should have picked up on.

@Amspider - My apologies for jumping on you. That was the 3rd time today someone asked a question (one time here, two others to me directly in real life), that had no background info, presuming I could figure something out of nothing. Just got frustrated (sad, frustrated emoji). Sorry.

No worries, I don’t take things personal. I am just happy that we have a group of people who care about comics. I don’t stress the small stuff like this. I am a Miami Dade police Sergeant, who happens to love comics. At work I stress on this I DONT.

WELL that being said. If anyone wants to Buy this bad boy prior to sending to to get graded and god knows that will take a year. Let me know.

Also, I'd call this a Manufacturing Error rather than misprint, if that matters.

Yes, it is definitely worth getting graded. What you will end up selling it for, who knows, but to give you an example, I had an Eternal Warrior #4 with a one of a kind manufacturing error, put it up and ended up selling it in October for $500 which was 2-4 times higher than what a normal 9.8 EW 4 is/has been getting on ebay. With the movie coming out, you could fetch a similar or greater multiple

I stand VERY corrected. Further apologies.

And now I am curiously interested in this book, where originally I wasn't. Maybe too invested.

Definitely better title Manufacturer Error. Thank you to each one of you who have shown so much interest and shared your knowledge.
