Stray dogs 1 acetate variant(the legit kind) for a double signing at baltimore. Debating cracking the absolute carnage 1 for sigs as well(actually picked it up for less than it costs raw...so I can't complain).

I had that slab on my radar since late Spring…didn’t pull the trigger.

It came up again last month at a slightly lower price…I pulled the trigger. 🤣🤣🤣

So, I bought this book off of e-bay a bit ago & I was notified that it was delivered today, only after I’d left town. As such, this pic is from the listing.

Being a “Creature” fan, I had to grab one and after losing an auction for one copy, I caved and went the Buy it Now route on this one.

The thing is, I can’t find any official site to corroborate the claim that this variant is limited to 250 copies.

So, my question is, is this a legit variant?

I heard that! Done the same thing many times.

Regardless, that's a pretty cool book. Fun creature cover!

There is one guy on eBay who lists that book as limited to 250, but I'm not seeing anything else.
Maybe the publisher's website...?

I just got my biggest shipment ever in of Spanish monster/horror and La Prensas, including Amazing Fantasy 13 & 14, Tales To Astonish 1, Thor 1 & 2, and a lot more good ones! Some are pretty rough but finding these in any condition is hard enough and getting increasingly harder.

Been looking so long for a decent copy of this book. When it popped up on my MCS Want List email I bought it by cell phone from the car without looking at page quality. Oh well, I might have pulled the trigger anyway. Not sure why these Superboy books are so uncommon in decent grade. Probably wasn't a popular series and had low print runs:

@EbayMafia
I have so few Superboys in decent shape. A couple of the ones that look nice at first glance actually have a massive subscription crease right down the middle. Younger readers + possible lower print runs makes for a lot of trashed books, I guess.

Yeah, I was thinking that the reader demographic probably was part of the equation as well.

It was mostly demographics. I think Superboy was actually extremely popular and had one of the highest print runs…
