Hi. Dumb question, but I bought a collection which included the below. It was a Harvey 2 pack of comics that they sold in the 70s and 80s but it has a Moon Knight # 1 and 2 in it. It is sealed. Can any one guide me to see where I can get more information on this as I have not seen another one like it before. Searched on google and all these sites and can't find any information. Thanks in advance for any info you can give.  |

| Thanks. I'm thinking this could just have been an error when the pack was done. Moon Knight # 1 was published in 1980, so maybe when they were doing these packs at the same publishing company they put these instead of some Harvey books. | ||

Marvel did almost buy Harvey’s properties in the 1980s, but the Harveys backed out of the deal at the very last minute. Marvel eventually rolled out the Star Comics line instead, utilizing virtually all of the Harvey staff from editor Sid Jacobson on down. To anyone interested in the long and winding history of Harvey Comics I recommend The Harvey Comics Companion by Mark Arnold. A very worthwhile read. |
