Facsimile editions14533
I wish I had a title. | ComicNinja0215 private msg quote post Address this user | |
Just wanted to know what everyone's thoughts were about these editions of classic stories. I have a few in my collection because I like the characters and would probably have to rob fort Knox to buy an original at this point. Is there a classic comic you would love to see reprinted this way and why?? For me, It's Avengers 4. Now you! |

those Mexican original Spiderman comics would be fun any of the UK Captain Britain stuff from the early 80s (marvel super-heroes or The Daredevils) |

@comixcited I was thinking DD 1 or 168 The galactus trilogy would be amazing | ||

@comixcited There is a true believers version of DD1 but nothing like the original one. | ||

@Comicninja0215 Is it that the True Believers editions don't have the original ads and stuff like the Facsimile Editions? | ||

Cover, 8 pages before the staples, 8 pages after, back cover. | MrNotSoNice private msg quote post Address this user | |
I have a lot of reprints, like Marvel Tales, etc. for when I want to read a classic comic in paper comics form. I suppose facsimile copies are OK, but I hate hate hate the replica comics sold on eBay. I think that is downright intellectual property theft. End of speech | ||

@MrNotSoNice It's definitely different when the IP Owner releases a facsimile reprint than when some random guy on the internet prints off some photocopies and sells them for $30+ (or any amount, really) | ||

Not trying to be an ass since February 12, 2020. | HulkSmash private msg quote post Address this user | |
I love the Official facsimiles. many are worth collecting; like the marvel milestones and the action figure pack-ins. If you’re looking for any in particular get them now. The AF 15, X-men 1, GSX 1 milestone editions and even the true believers ASM 361 have been steadily climbing with the outrageous market for the OGs. | ||

@HulkSmash I have noticed! Haha and I think it's because of what I had mentioned aboce; I you can buy the original, get the reprint. The market truly is crazy haha | ||

I think those reprint editions are worth money in those hardcore collections. The ones in a hard cardboard box that have a hardcore book and then a single reprint issue of a comic. |

It’s really annoying when people don’t read the description or look at the photos to know what they’re buying. Like this example where someone thought my true believers thunderbolts was a NM original Hulk 449 priced at $15. Come one... I guess i need to add “reprint” in the description to idiot proof it. |

I have a facsimile of GL #85, the drug edition. Signed by Neal Adams. It's pretty cool. I definitely am keeping it in the collection, but I probably won't get it graded or anything. | ||

Having a book like that signed is definitely a incentive for grading but everyone is different, especially if it's for the PC. | ||

I’ve got several. They are great for books that I’m probably not going to buy for the pile of cash required, right now. But, I also like to get ones of books I have. It’s cool to have a reprint and the original. |
